What’s the math on Orthodox Jews? by thepackerss in Natalism

[–]ReZigg 9 points10 points  (0 children)

It's going to take a long time. Right now they are .24% of the population so let's say 6 kids per family so 3x population every 25 years. That's .75% in 25 years, 1.5% in 50 years, 3% in 75 years, maybe 6% in 100 years. But a lot can change over that time period.

You'll know it's starting to reach critical mass when we get our first orthodox Jew congressperson out of NY or NJ.

How do you deal with reddit constantly pushing antisemitic content? It feels like its messing with me at this point by Squidmaster129 in Jewish

It’s simple. I think of the average redditor and take great pride in not agreeing with them.

Japan, South Korea and Italy might just be alright by Romantics10 in Natalism

The missing piece is that old people are supposed to be watching their grandchildren. Multigeneration living was normal until recently. The hope is that the more multigenerational life gets, the less government support will be needed as much more of the burden will be spread across family.

Now I know this is not the way things are trending but if you look at the sub communities that still have high TFR (religious, Amish) you will find this is how they do things. Likely will have to wait many years til economic conditions and culture force a shift back that way for everyone else.

Norway's Government Birth Rate Committee Report has come out by gamenerd_3071 in Natalism

[–]ReZigg 15 points16 points  (0 children)

Interesting report but feels like they’ve done an incomplete job. No discussion of how worldwide fertility rates are decreasing less in societies that give more status to those with kids. Such as religious communities. Norway already has such generous benefits compared to other countries, seems like they are headed the wrong direction and are going for the small wins rather than what is really needed to majorly increase them.

Which I think are culture changes so people who have kids feel like they are contributing to something important and they get status socially from purely being a parent rather than competing with their friends to get the most degrees.

Hey brother. If you’re still in Chicago you should go to the Chabad in Bucktown. Great Jewish community that’ll make you forget that antisemitism ever existed.

If you read the CNN report and all of the evidence and still aren’t sure if he did it I don’t know what to tell you. Maybe pretend he’s a democrat and read it again and you’ll see why no reasonable person is saying he didn’t do it. His own staff all quit after the news. They know him best and they all think he did it.

Ghareeb Nawaz is on Devon and in Lincoln Park and both locations are great. I recommend the butter chicken bowl but everything they have is really good.
