If anti-nihilism is garbage, then I am proud to be a garbage man.
It is easy being a ‘garbage man’ when one is from a rich Western country where even those in ghettos have automobiles, iPhones and $600 sneakers.
It’s another thing when Marasmus, Kwashiorkor and other dietary based diseases are a real killer (and by dietary based I don’t mean cholesterol related issues, but rather lack of food), where proper education is out of reach, and incomes may as well be non-existent.
This is why I have no problem in America, Western Europe and Japan raising their (non-immigrant) birth rates. Absolutely no problem with that, and in fact I feel it should be encouraged.
But it is patently ludicrous for people in wealthy countries to tell the poor to have more kids. Ridiculous!
