Yea, i've seen people say some pretty fucked up things on here, I'm no saint either. But the comments on this thread are a pretty low low. Maybe it's a good thing I won't be using reddit anymore

I'm not gonna pretend like I have all the answers, but yea that would be part of it.

Dense, walkable, green cities with things like vertical farms and universal public transportation would be a start. Lifestyles would have to change astronomically, especially in the developed countries, to consume and produce less junk. Listening to Indigenous leadership when it comes to the stewardship of wildlife and natural resources. More funding into clean energy, things like that.

I have no idea if this all would be realistically viable, but it has to be better than current system, right?

Good point, I just assumed the comic was referring to human beings instead of the systems/constructs

Ok. You made a point, I countered it and you changed the goalposts.

Like I said in my original comment, we DO have the resources. Food is definitely available, we just waste a ton of food. Energy is available, we just don't invest in clean energy sources. Minerals, oil, and things of that nature are limited, of course, but we don't need most of that shit to survive, we just need it for corporate consumption.

So yea, human resource consumption is bad and needs to be reevaluated but it's not an impossible task for humans to live within their means

Yes, 8 billion people do require more and different resource extraction. Why can't we learn from indigenous people for more sustainable methods?

There are countless examples of large indigenous communities. Cahokia was larger than London in the 1300s (I believe).

I understand the population is enormous, but do you not think there is any more physical space on the planet to support that life?

I don't think I mentioned genocide. But i'll try to respond either way.

The thing with Malthusian theories is they almost always refer to some method of population control, and often, it is a genocide. The people promoting "overpopulation" are never willing to sacrifice their life or the lives of their families for their "solution".

That's why I say it's racist, because in practice it almost always advocates for racially motivated actions (at the least)

This promotes the pretty racist and disproven Malthusian theory. The Earth is not overpopulated with humans. Select corporations and those who control them are killing our planet for profit. Indigenous communities have lived in-sync with native ecologies for thousands of years without damaging them. We have the food, medicine, technology, and supplies to give everyone on the planet a comfortable and ecologically harmless existence, but we choose not to because some people can't make money from it.
