      By percentage, but the total birthrate would (continue to) go down.

      And now Trump’s gonna make it harder to immigrate, so the population may actually start nosediving.

        Yeah, others have portrayed that as the goal here.

        I just feel like I wouldn’t feel particularly attached to the fate of a country raised by brainwashing conservative families anyways, so it’s a scorched earth approach. Yes, you’ve broken the system, and it can be remade now, but those doing the remaking likely won’t carry your values…
