I think, overpopulation is a eco-facist narrative.

Persons are autonomous, and if we would educate them correctly, they could help to make more of earth hospitable and use resources more efficientlly.

Who's we? As a westerner I'd feel like quite the hypocrite schooling the rest of the world on how to efficiently utilise resources.

Eco-fascist is an odd term.

Fascism is generally used to describe right wing dictatorships with hierarchical structures which are opposed to democratic principles.

Do you really believe any of the people advocating for population stability are fascists?
