Bluesky devs literally vibecoding the app into oblivion.

You can only post regular ones, I think.

So you’re saying you want to have state controlled human reproduction.

Also higher incomes, women working etc.

Basically you should be advocating for every country to become South Korea.

Even if one were to grant your premise I don’t get how you seriously imagine we could substantially reduce the global population as quickly as you seem to think is necessary just by handing out condoms.

Well, I can’t think of a single historical example of “trying to stop people from having kids” that hasn’t turned monstrous, and as discussed I disagree with your pronouncements of doom.

Know what actually does lower birth rates? Economic prosperity.

lol… that’s really not the question here. The point is that it’s hardly going to achieve the policy goals you seek.

I’m aware it’s not straight, but you picked a point closer to the R4.5 model and hung a whole doomsday argument off eyeballing a graph.

Do you not get that that’s not responsible?

Yeah that’ll do it.

How do you intend to do it?

424.8 is absolutely not the middle of 415 and 449. The average is 432 and your entire point here hinges on the notion that CO2 is like 1 ppm over the estimate.

If you’re going to make this your whole personality than at least to a better job fudging your numbers.

I don’t know if you misread the graph or just didn’t expect people to check, but your interpolated numbers look closer to RCP 4.5.

Right, so your interpolations are wrong.

RCP 8.5 predicted 415 in 2020 and predicts 449 ppm in 230. Today we’re sitting at 429 ppm, which is tracking a bit below what RCP 8.5 predicts.

Care to provide a link to that data?

Do you see how in these emission scenarios growth in atmospheric CO2 lags behind even a net drop in emissions by a few decades?

Like honestly this is your whole thing and you’re half-assing it.

Right, do you understand the difference between first and second derivatives?

Carbon ppm isn’t going to stop increasing instantly just because we hover close to “not increasing the rate at which we’re adding CO2 to the atmosphere” for a year.

Are you even serious about this?

Increase in atmospheric CO2 tracks with emissions.

No evidence in that data that “carbon sinks are collapsing”

You’re going to be so mad when humanity doesn’t go extinct, aren’t you?

This person is able to follow links to articles and actually read them.

In the rear view mirror?

Wow your sources are somehow getting worse.

Have you run through your standard list and are down to googling headlines?

This guy looks at declining per capita CO2 emissions and concludes the only solution is mandatory sterilization.

And there’s the pivot and reassertion of generic doom.

Right? And where he thinks population needs to be reduced.

e.g. if a country is ramping up production (as China is) then energy output over the life of the solar cell is going to lag behind the cost of production?

Did you consider that or did you toss numbers into Excel?

That’s not an argument. That’s a chart you made yourself alleging to capture one statistic over one period of time in place.

You can’t jump from “energy use manufacturing solar cells over one span of time only lags a bit behind how much they produce” to “population reduction is the only way.”

You aren’t even trying to make a single cohesive argument. You’re just tossing out random papers, often misquoting them and arguing from vibes.

Personal, yes. You are personally harmful to the cause you claim to champion. Vulgar? No.

Your basic rhetorical technique, over and over is just: “here’s a random citation of something that sounds alarming, therefore humanity is doomed.”

And when someone provides context you jump to something else

Yes, you’re an enemy to anyone who wants people to take climate change seriously.

You’re out here making shitty, apocalyptic and easily debunked arguments primarily inspired to create despair.

No overt climate change denier could represent their case so well as you make it for them.

You are genuinely your own worst enemy, you know that?
