media discourse on inflation has been awful, driven by pro-trump tendencies and their own ignorance. entire election seemed to turn on inflation, but there was little education on how to control it (did a single major story mention that raising taxes cuts inflation?) or why deflation is worse

If birthrates are unsustainably low in particular places in the world — a real problem — the easiest solution we have yet devised is to have people from other parts of the world move there. This track record of this approach has been phenomenal.
There has never been and never will be a birthrate induced shortage of human beings on this planet. There are many reasons one might want children, as I do. It is simply not the case that anyone in particular has a responsibility to consider having children to perpetuate the existence of humanity.

There is a quasi-religion in Silicon Valley that views AI as godlike. This faith has always been parallel to Evangelical Christianity: salvation (transhumanism), the rapture (the technological singularity), and demons (Roko's Basilisk)
Lately the AI faith has fully fused with Christian Nationalism.
