I guess you’re an authority on obscure writings about
abortion or eugenics or whatever cute topic this guy
wrote about. Good for you.

Some people may need education about that stuff more than others.

I’m glad you’ve been “educated”, apparently you needed to be.

Nothing obscure about Ehrlich.

His book prompted Richard Nixon to make overpopulation an issue in ‘69-70 and even a motivation for the establishment of the EPA.

A grad student at Stanford, Dennis Hayes, worked with him and Gaylord Nelson to get Earth Day going and the entire luddite/watermelon “environmental” movement which was really a misanthropic Marxist initiative that we are still fighting to this day.

Even pop culture reflected his nonsense:

Not sure why you’re unaware of all this, but the truth is that much of the post-60’s political movements on the Left were and are animated by what he said. Not just Marx and Engels or the Democrat party. They just rode the coattails.

Yes, as your comments have amply demonstrated.
