That's not your decision to make one way or the other.

What? Answer the question in word and meaning if you answer and not your deranged interpretation of it. People are voluntary getting less children in almost every western society.

I'm not "all humans", I'm one. I like being here. You're asking me to decide for others if they should also be here. It's not for me to say.

Also- the future isn't necessarily all humans and nothing else.

Where do I ask that? Go gaslight yourself somewhere else.

> do you want to be the biggest but only biomass left on the planet just to own the libs?

What does this mean? You're asking about the human race right? Or are you literally asking the parent if they want to grow into the fattest sole survivor on the planet? I'm confused by what you're even asking.

I know what they meant but your interpretation made me chuckle

with the noble view to save the planet?

I bet that's the case for more than you would expect.

Good for them. Not that much for ecological reasons, though. The point of your parent was, I believe, that it's not your place to decide for others.

exactly

Reading comprehension = F. My question was if you want to be the only biomass on the planet and not that you should not have kids nor anyone else.

Apparently, three-quarters of Earth's food supply draws on just 12 crops and five livestock species. Is that a good thing? a bad thing? Or, as I believe, not really either good or bad. That situation has been sustained for quite a while already right?

All of the biodiversity on the planet is reducing to 12 crops and five livestock species, at least by weight.

Why do we not choose to broaden the range of species that we cultivate? Are most just another species of rat or weed? Maybe more varieties of carrot are just better. Or just more carrots in general for that matter.

If it's so wonderful Western nations having fewer kids why are uneducated people from elsewhere being brought in in such numbers?

> are voluntary getting less children

It has been definitively established that this is entirely voluntary? Do you have a source you can cite?
