Okay let me take a different and slightly less civil tact here: When you impose conditions on a population that make it a hostile environment to raise children, you have companies like Nestle doing genocide for profit through their pushing of infant formula knowing full well the people they are pushing it on do not have access to necessary clean water to make use of it, which is also a result of colonialism and the deliberate underdevelopment of the imperial periphery, and then after ALL THAT you have an organization that comes along and offers up a solution that "Oh well obviously the problem is you just have too many offspring".
And you can't recognize the overt fascist motives here?
Like what the fuck dude?
This is intentionally genocidal and you are over here like "well ackshually" when you should sit down shut the fuck up and learn something.
I didn't say I can't recognize colonialism / imperialism of west and east or bullshit Nestle and other giant corps pull or the myriad ways the US fucked all these countries.
I'm saying you're supporting evidence and arguments for Gates doing eugenics is lacking. And now you're pissed and have to resort to "you should sit down shut the fuck up and learn something". This is the same type of reaction as trying to have a discussion with a religious nut (used to be one, now atheist) or a cryptobro. That's hardly being open to being wrong or being intellectually honest. I'm out. I hold no hard feelings on my end. Plus I intend to continue to look into the topic but life is way too short and I don't care to "debate" further here. Thanks and peace to you.
You're the one that already admitted you don't know much about this stuff and have only reacted dismissively to actual sources and confronted by people that DO know a lot about these topics. You had your worldview challenged and reacted with hostility.
