I moved here from America last year because they have tuition free college, and I'm honestly impressed with how stupid and evil this country is. Like I truly believe there is less revolutionary potential here than in America. Say what you will about America, but there is a general social attitude that does not put up with these bullshit opinions being publicly voiced.

Overall, Germany has some cool stuff going on, but they're also quite stupid and clueless.

    Civilizations don’t come back from this.

    That's a stretch. There are easily identifiable reasons for the lower birth rates in most cases.

      Yeah, instead of children being an asset, helping out on the farm, they're a liability, costing a huge amount to care for and educate.

      That trend isn't going away. Low birth rates aren't going to get better. And honestly, the fewer westerners in the world, the better.

        Financial insecurity is the main reason there aren't more births. Saying there will be low birth rates forever presupposes there will always be financial insecurity forever.
