I’m as skeptical of underpopulation doomerism as I was about the previous overpopulation panic.

Both commit the fallacy of assuming present trends remain in place indefinitely and ignoring technology.

They also both tend to be racist. Overpopulation was always about too many of the “wrong” people while underpopulation is about not enough of the “right” people.
