Ignorant and myopic. There is no specific population limit after which you can say that overpopulation occurs. If we had unlimited nuclear energy and amazing battery technology figured out (who says we never will?), we could probably have tens of billions of people sustainably with enough land for everyone. So yeah your opinion deserves to be downvoted.

If we could do X and Y, then we could do Z. Yeah, but we are not doing X and Y, hence, your opinion is just some idialistic bs and deserves to be downvoted.

What's wrong with being idealistic? At least it aspires people to work towards the ideal. The statement I said is scientifically correct, the world is not inherently overpopulated. People like you with anti-science attitudes spread the popular but false narrative that the world is overpopulated and the only solution to climate change is shrinking the human population. This steers people in the wrong direction and slows down actual progress in solving climate change.
