Yes, the author on this article really says "News Editors".
This article simply puts several other statistics in one place. Primary targets of the Dem vaccine are gays and blacks.
Now you are expected to invest in a college education for yourself and your children, pay the taxes for an extended public education system, and in many cases supply equipment (phones, computers, cars) for your employer's use without charge, all while your real wages decline.
See my #40 above. The fertility rate in most Muslim countries has fallen sharply. In Iran, it fell off a cliff. High rates of STIs resulting in lowered fertility is one of the main causes. So maybe we shouldn’t rethink monogamy.
In a few countries like Afghanistan, where literacy levels are low, fertility rates are high. It seems the literacy rate, particularly the female literacy rate, is one of the best predictors of fertility rate. Maybe we should rethink letting girls go to school? Nah, we don’t want to go there. Don’t wanna be like the Taliban. There must be some other way.
Just a thought: As written on the now defunct Georgia Guide Stones, for the Earth to continue, a maximum of 500 million people should be the Earth’s entire population. That would be down from 8 Billion.
According to the Iranian Statistical Center, the fertility rate is currently 1.71 as reported in May of this year. Turkey’s total fertility rate (TFR) for 2021 was 1.70. Malaysia’s was also 1.7. While fertility rates are higher in countries like Egypt, they have been steadily falling.
In general, the more developed the country and the higher the literacy rate, the lower the fertility rate is in Muslim countries. The falling fertility in these countries helps explain why the Europeans were in such a hurry to import these people to replace the babies they didn’t have. Margaret Thatcher once famously said “The trouble with socialism is eventually you run out of other people’s money.” Well, it looks like another danger is running out of other people period.
The countries with the highest fertility rates are all in sub-Saharan Africa.

At the very beginning that was exactly what I thought. We were seriously wrong on that.
...how people react ...

The metric is BIRTHS, not sex, family planning or terminations.
The number of live births is down by unprecedented amounts.
You cannot parse some sort of lame excuse for this. You can attempt to equate *births* with sexual activity or assume some sort of rational doomsday choices, but that goes contrary to ingrained human behavior, whereas people turn to procreative sex instinctively in the face of death and dystopia.
These figures come from every government that pushed and mandated the shots and punished anyone who didn’t take them. The sources for these figures are consistent across nations that are highly inoculated, some with up to 4 inoculations.
But I do understand your use of ‘semi-’ in your handle.
Perhaps we should think about teaching girls to value motherhood, fecundity, and marriage.
We have taught girls to hate their womanhood and marriage. and to despise babies.
The women of the 50s and 60s were all educated and prolific with children
Exactly. And it was mainly working women denigrating those who stayed home to raise children back then. “Oh, she’s just a housewife.” And Hillary’s infamous snark about how she didn’t “stay home and baking cookies all day.”
When the Women’s Movement first started out, one of the main goals was supposedly to gain more respect for the role of homemaker, but before you knew it, they wanted us to act like men and started putting down homemakers.
While it’s true that among Muslim countries, the more developed the country and higher the literacy rate, the lower the fertility rate tends to be, that doesn’t hold true among Western countries when you compare them to each other. David P. Goldman (aka “Spengler”) has been making the case for religious belief being tied to fertility rate (the higher religious belief, the higher fertility), and his arguments have some merit. Orthodox Jews have lots of kids, for example.
Our current culture is not child- or family-friendly (understatement), as it was back in the 1950s and 1960s. Perhaps to keep reproducing ourselves we need a sweeping Christian revival to strengthen marriage and family. But our churches seem to be caving to our increasingly decadent and declining culture. :(
In the News/Activism forum, on a thread titled Depopulation taking place under our eyes! Birth reduction in Taiwan: -23.34%, in UK: -8%, in Germany: -13%… And we all know what’s causing it., buwaya wrote: But oddly enough the US birth rate popped up in 2021.

That data is per the CDC propagandists. Karl Denninger at Market Ticker has ways to get around fake stats - wonder what he says?
According to Pfizer's trial data which it tried to hide for 75 years, there were exessive spontaneous abortion and other unsuccessful pregnancy outcomes post Covid vax.
You think people are having as much or more sex yet births are down.
There's no evidence miscarriages are up, so what do you think is happening?
My daughter had to get the shot for her job. She had two healthy children prior to this, but after getting the shot, she's had two miscarriages. She is deeply hurt about this.
So no, people haven't stopped trying to have children during the pandemic.
“In the Muslim countries, a man can have five wives...”
A rich man can. There aren’t that many rich men in most Muslim countries.
It’s not like we’ve never had pandemics (or wars) before. We know how populations automatically adjust their selective breeding strategies in those circumstances.
“people turn to procreative sex instinctively in the face of death and dystopia”
Bingo. There isn’t even a conscious choice involved, not when you get to the level of aggregate statistics over a whole population. If the threat is big enough, then the survival instinct just takes over.
And the article shows a decline, as you say, from 2008-2020.
It does not contradict you.
But an increase in 2021.
You read the article?????
No Freeper actually reads the article prior to posting their 2 cents. (not really SARC)
The title of the article is contrary to the content
We have no evidence of an increase in the rate of miscarriages - a statistic that's closely monitored.
Why fewer births?
