Dr Natalia Bhattacharjee, co-author of the study and lead research scientist at the Institute for Health Metrics and Evaluation (IHME) at the University of Washington, US, said the declining fertility rates “will completely reconfigure the global economy and the international balance of power and will necessitate reorganising societies”.

“Global recognition of the challenges around migration and global aid networks are going to be all the more critical when there is fierce competition for migrants to sustain economic growth and as sub-Saharan Africa’s baby boom continues apace.”

Technology drives populatipn growth (except subsahra africa). Because technology is in decline population is in decline. Flash crash of subsaharan aftica population comes when the "west" runs out of money and handouts.

Only whites, though.

Yes, that's literally the only reason that a downward population trend is a bad thing. It's not happening to niggers and street shitters, only whites and some Asians.

"and will necessitate reorganising societies”."

That sounds pure evil right there.

The official numbers for world population released by the United Nations as of now have just surpassed 8 billion people living on Earth. In 1800 there were only 900 million members of the human family spread across the world, raising to 1.65 billion in 1900, and skyrocketing to nearly 7 billion in the year 2000. Now in 2023 we have allegedly just passed the 8 billion mark with UN predictions claiming these statistics will continue to rise until reaching a whopping 11 billion at the turn of the next century. Given past failures and the many lies spewed by the UN during recent world events, however, it is fair and justified to remain skeptical of such statistics and to do some independent investigation before blindly believing.

Let's use India as a prime example.

India supposedly has a country wide population of over 1.4 billion citizens.

However when practical calculations are made using the UN's own numbers, it doesn't add up.

Taking the official figures from the 300 largest cities in India

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_cities_in_India_by_population

12.4 million in the biggest city Mumbai to around 100,000 in the 300th city Aurangabad

Add these 300 most populated cities together and it barely accounts for 200 million of the supposed 1.4 billion citizens. So they claim that there is another 1.2 billion Indians living in shanties spread across India?

I don't think so. I don't trust the experts.
