“You’re really fixated on this stuff, aintcha?”
He should be. Ehrlich’s idiocy caused enormous damage.
An entire generation was exhorted to abort itself or else the world would become Soylent Green.
It was crap but resulted in 60 million abortions in the U.S. alone. The Supreme Court used it as a justification for Roe v. Wade.
Mass immigration to the US is entirely a result of one generation not reproducing and “Overpopulation” hysteria was a big reason why. The truth is that the economy kept rolling along - capitalism does that - and people were needed.
Catenate that with the 1965 Immigration Act and you have the modern nightmare of a Third World America.
Ehrlich is a vapid jerk who lives in a La La world where his juvenile scribblings are still taken seriously. We should all never forget how wrong he was and still is while we try to repair the damage.
