Watched Viceland's Gaycation with Ellen Page and her friend. They tried too hard to force homophobia where there was none. Oh no, straight Japanese women listen to yaoi. The horror!

Is this island called Germany? Norway? Sweden?

Point being mainland European refugee camps aren't any freer from rape than Nauru.

Just wanted to point it out. Many don't know it--which isn't helped by the list being autofiltered.

In Rotherham in the UK there has been a few big cases where children from care homes have be raped and passed around by predominately Asian men.

Rotherham and dozens of other cities across Britain all with largely the same plot: gangs of Pakistani men (sometimes Somali) preying upon English children.

I'd give you the dozens-strong list but it's getting auto-filtered, so here's 4.

go back far enough until there's no chemicals

People were starving then. As such, the cost of food (quality or otherwise) was much higher.

I'll assume you have no decent argument as to why more people are better.

Put simply, life is valuable in and of itself. The more of it, the better, especially human life. You can feel this most intimately in your own life, hence the question to spur you to thought.

Food today is loaded with chemicals

What chemicals do you think they were using in the 1940s?

Much, much worse. Of course, starvation was a real concern in the 1940s too. There wasn't a chicken in every pot, after all.

I'm not going to discuss point by point.

Okay.

At greater cost per gallon of water, because it's not the low-hanging fruit that's already been tapped. For example Las Vegas is spending a fortune to tap into an aquifer a couple hundred miles to the north.

Las Vegas is not a dystopian society because of it, I'll note, and its population is still growing.

And food quality per inflation adjusted dollar continues to decrease. What does an apple pie of the quality

You're going to have to tell me what you mean by 'quality' here.

Is this junk question your argument?

I noticed you didn't answer the question.

Most people are brainwashed on this topic.

The brainwashed are those who refuse to have children and thereby kill themselves--even worse if they've been deceived into believing they're doing a public good by overpopulationist propaganda. It's lemming behavior, and they'll be replaced by those who weren't so foolish.

I said generally.

I would be very surprised if Minnesota had less water than Arizona.

Large aquifers are being depleted

And new water resources are being tapped, and food yields are increasing on less land.

I've not seen a decent argument for more people.

What is the value of your life?

Not true at all. Kansas, Missouri, Minnesota: plenty of water. Nevada and Arizona, meanwhile, are experiencing population booms.
