Japan, a country famous for no one knowing what its culture is.
- dyauspitr 3mo agoReading about it in books and watching anime won’t prevent them from going functionally extinct in less than 200 years.
- guyzero 3mo agoNo one cares. Japanese culture today is nothing like it was 200 years ago.
- functionmouse 3mo agoI care
- kordlessagain 3mo agodoubtful
- dyauspitr 3mo agoI care. I don’t want the country of Japan to be a bunch of starving geriatrics a few decades from now.
- triceratops 3mo agoI don't believe that will happen.
- dyauspitr 3mo agoIt will if nothing changes. That’s a certainty. But yes something might change.
- N_Lens 3mo agoEver heard of Malthus?
- goodpoint 3mo agoYes, a deeply flawed theory.
- trumpdong 3mo agoRight. No species has ever overpopulated itself to extinction. Certainly no human sect. Why are there statue heads on an unpopulated island anyway?
- goodpoint 3mo agoThat's plain false.
- N_Lens 3mo agoThe point is Malthus was very popular in his day and his predictions appeared iron clad, just like predictions about population collapse seem to be today. Many countries enacted population control programs due to his influence. Reality often has a funny way of evading predictions.
