It explores the impact on various countries and the failure of government \u200cinterventions to address the issue. The \u2062narrative touches on \u2064the complexities of the problem, cultural attitudes, and the Natal Conference&#8217;s focus on solutions, challenging mainstream perceptions regarding population and fertility.  <\/p>\n<p class=\"readmore\">\n    <button onclick=\"showReadMore()\" id=\"readmorebtn\">Read more&#8230;<\/button>\n<\/p>\n<hr id=\"line\">\n<span id=\"more\"><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Over the past few years, the biggest knock you\u2019ve heard against the field of public health is that they completely mismanaged COVID, mainly by exaggerating its impact. They told us it was a potentially civilization-ending epidemic \u2014 one that justified lockdowns, mandatory shots, et cetera. In the end they were wrong, of course, and for that reason no one will ever trust one of these supposed experts again.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">But the really extraordinary thing about the field of public health isn\u2019t the epidemics they fixate on. It\u2019s the ones they ignore. In particular, there is one <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/they-do-not-expect-this-lull-to-last-reporter-bill-melugin-says-border-crossings-will-crank-back-up\/\" title=\"Border crossings will increase soon, says reporter Bill Melugin.\">ongoing public health crisis<\/a> that these experts really don\u2019t want to talk about \u2014 even though, if it continues for much longer, it will quite literally bring about the end of humanity.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">I\u2019m talking about collapsing fertility rates all over the world, which is a problem you really have to put in context if you want to understand how dire things are.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Right now, Russia, China, Hungary, Poland, Turkey, Ireland, Switzerland, Greece, Denmark, Australia, Canada, Qatar, the UAE, South Korea, Japan, Taiwan, Singapore, the UK, Germany, and the United States \u2014 and many others \u2014 have birth rates that are well below replacement level.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">The U.S. fertility rate is at its <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/ianbremmer\/status\/1783920672617443824\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">lowest<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">  point in nearly a century. What that means is that people aren\u2019t having enough children to sustain the population. But not every country is affected by this crisis. There are countries where fertility is much higher than replacement level. They include such esteemed locations as Niger (one of the poorest countries on the planet), Chad, Somalia, Angola, Tanzania, Afghanistan, Zambia, Cameroon, Yemen, Iraq, Syria, and of course Haiti.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">It doesn\u2019t take a genius to see where this is heading. Third-world hellholes are reproducing, while first-world countries \u2014 the ones that sustain the global economy that keeps billions of people alive \u2014 are not reproducing. As this goes on, and third-world inhabitants continue to pour into the first-world, the distinction between these two parts of the world continues to blur until they\u2019re completely irrelevant. Eventually everywhere will be third-world.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">This is not a new problem. But to the extent political leaders have tried to solve it, by and large, they\u2019ve failed.<\/span><\/p>\n<h4><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.dailywire.com\/episode\/ep-1357-member-exclusive\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">WATCH: The Matt Walsh Show<\/a><\/strong><\/h4>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">A decade ago, for example, China <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/ChinaPowerCSIS\/status\/1781729541385249271\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">eased<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">  its barbaric one-child policy. They expected millions more births as a result. But the following year, the country saw only an additional half-million births. And the country\u2019s birth rate has remained below replacement level ever since.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Beginning in the 90s, Japan undertook its own <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov\/pmc\/articles\/PMC10615026\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">efforts<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">  to raise the birth rate, including offering more parental leave, more <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/biden-friendly-economist-bigger-benefit-checks-mean-fewer-workers\/\" title=\"Biden-Friendly Economist: Bigger Benefit Checks Mean Fewer Workers\">child care services<\/a>, et cetera. The result? Nothing has improved. It\u2019s only gotten much worse. Last year, Japan\u2019s birth rate was the lowest on record.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">It\u2019s the same story in Hungary. Starting with Orban\u2019s government in 2010, Hungary doubled its spending on families. And yet, last year, Hungary, like Japan, recorded its lowest number of births in history.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">So whatever the problem is here, it\u2019s clear that it cannot be resolved solely through more spending or government intervention. Simply providing some ad hoc economic incentives isn\u2019t cutting it \u2014 although those policies are good, they aren\u2019t sufficient. So what is the solution? You can say that the broader economy needs to improve, which is obviously a big part of it. But the declines I\u2019m talking about have been in progress for decades. Singapore\u2019s birth rate has been dropping since the 1980s, and their GDP per capita grew dramatically in the new millennium. It\u2019s a similar situation in Taiwan. And birth rates in the U.S. were declining pre-pandemic, for more than a decade \u2014 even throughout <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.washingtonpost.com\/business\/economy\/us-household-incomes-soared-in-2015-recording-biggest-gain-in-decades\/2016\/09\/13\/a832da44-79e0-11e6-ac8e-cf8e0dd91dc7_story.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">periods<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">  in which median household incomes were setting new records.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">What this means is that figuring out the root cause of this problem is more complicated than looking at economic indicators alone. It means analyzing culture, and in particular, taking a close look at prevailing attitudes towards children and families, and trying to change them. That was the main goal of the Natal Conference, which took place at the end of last year in Austin, Texas. Speakers from all over the country gathered to assess what\u2019s gone wrong and how to fix it.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">One of them was Kevin Dolan, an organizer of the event. And he made it clear that, whether you personally like the idea of having kids or not, the collapse of fertility rates will have devastating effects on you and everyone you know. Watch:<\/span><\/p>\n<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Whether you agree with him or not, one of the first things you notice about Kevin Dolan is that he\u2019s not a demagogue. He didn\u2019t hold this conference to berate anyone for not wanting to have kids. He\u2019s not some kind of cult leader who demands that everyone sign a pledge to create a certain number of children. He\u2019s a normal guy. And he\u2019s trusting, too, which is why he allowed a Politico reporter to attend the event to write about it.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">How did that turn out? Predictably, Politico published a hit piece that\u2019s so bizarre, and so totally disconnected from the event, that it verges on self-parody.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Here\u2019s how Politico wrote about the conference <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/politico\/status\/1784569937391956477\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">on Twitter<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">: \u201cThe far right is so obsessed with making babies, they just held a whole conference about it.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Yes, you heard that right. Politico has uncovered the sinister Right-wing plot to have babies and ensure the survival of the human species. They caught us. We are anti-extinction. Much to our shame.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Then if you click through to the article, you\u2019ll find this <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.politico.com\/news\/magazine\/2024\/04\/28\/natalism-conference-austin-00150338\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">sinister-sounding<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">  headline: \u201cThe Far Right\u2019s Campaign to Explode the Population.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">It\u2019s not hard to see what Politico is getting at. Basically, they\u2019re saying that anyone who wants Western societies to produce children \u2014 which is to say, anyone who wants Western societies to continue existing \u2014 must be \u201cfar Right.\u201d It\u2019s reminiscent of how \u201cfreedom\u201d has <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.cbc.ca\/radio\/checkup\/what-s-your-reaction-to-the-ottawa-standoff-and-the-border-blockades-1.6349636\/why-the-word-freedom-is-such-a-useful-rallying-cry-for-protesters-1.6349865\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">become<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">  a dirty word in Canada. The people who want to destroy Western civilization aren\u2019t doing a great job of hiding it anymore.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">But if you go online to the Natal Conference\u2019s website, you can find a bunch of speakers explaining very clearly what they think is happening in this country. They talk about everything from divorce laws to common fears people have about parenting, and the impact these considerations are having on fertility rates. None of this is a \u201cRight-wing conspiracy.\u201d That\u2019s the familiar terminology they trot out whenever the Left knows that something is really happening and they want it to keep happening.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">And indeed, there\u2019s a very active anti-natalism movement right now. Spend any time on the darker corners of the internet, and you\u2019ll find quite a few people who fully embrace depopulation as a positive good. It\u2019s grim stuff.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">In fact, mainstream media outlets routinely run stories about young people who don\u2019t want to have kids because it will hurt the planet somehow. Watch:<\/span><\/p>\n<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">That\u2019s the more socially acceptable form of the depopulation agenda, and it\u2019s being promoted by corporate media. But the anti-natalism movement gets more organized, and more explicit, the deeper you look.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">One of the leaders of this depopulation agenda is Les Knight, the founder of the Voluntary Human Extinction Movement. Here\u2019s footage of one of his recent conferences. As you watch this, compare Knight\u2019s presentation with the one you heard earlier at the Natal conference, just in terms of the general sanity of the speaker. Watch:<\/span><\/p>\n<\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">That\u2019s the first land acknowledgement you\u2019ll hear that doesn\u2019t just acknowledge some of the tribes or whatever, but also acknowledges some of the wildlife. This is as cultish and as creepy as it gets, but you won\u2019t see Politico running any articles on this guy being \u201cfar Left.\u201d They\u2019re not smearing Les Knight. Instead, quite the opposite.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">The New York Times recently published <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.nytimes.com\/2022\/11\/23\/climate\/voluntary-human-extinction.html\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">a glowing profile<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">  of Knight: \u201cFor the sake of the planet, Les Knight, the founder of the Voluntary Human Extinction movement, has spent decades pushing one message: \u2018May we live long and die out.&#8217;\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">In that clip you just saw, you heard Knight mention that no one ever talks about the fact that world population is increasing, even as <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/we-should-think-about-rome-but-not-for-her-glories\/\" title=\"Consider Rome, not for its glories, but for other aspects\">birth rates plummet<\/a>. But there are a couple of obvious explanations for this. One is that \u2014 as I mentioned earlier \u2014 not all countries are experiencing plummeting birth rates. The most dysfunctional countries on the planet are actually reproducing at <a href=\"https:\/\/www.conservativenewsdaily.net\/breaking-news\/china-claims-its-first-mrna-vaccine-is-95-effective-against-coronavirus\/\" title=\"China Claims Its First mRNA Vaccine Is 95% Effective Against Coronavirus\">extremely high rates<\/a>. Additionally, just from a statistical perspective, it takes time for lagging birth rates to show up in world population figures. There might be a lot of young couples now having kids in some places. That doesn\u2019t mean those couples will be around in 20 years, still having children. Birth rates decline first, and then population declines. When you get to the point where the population itself is starting to decline, that\u2019s when the catastrophe has really hit. The goal is to prevent that from happening.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Reversing this decline should not be a \u201cRight-wing\u201d project. Yet there are very few prominent people outside of conservative circles who are willing to talk about this at all. Elon Musk is the only notable exception. In fact, it should tell us something that Musk \u2014 one of the wealthiest and most powerful men on the planet \u2014 considers depopulation to be the greatest existential threat we face as a species.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">This weekend I engaged in a back-and-forth with Musk on Twitter about the causes of this existential threat. The conversation started when someone posted this chart on social media. It shows that the number of men under 30 who report having zero sexual partners since turning 18 has increased from 8% in 2008 to 27% in 2018.<\/span><\/p>\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"500\" data-dnt=\"true\">\n<p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">Holy hell, this is unbelievable <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/uR48n6KPRx\">pic.twitter.com\/uR48n6KPRx<\/a><\/p>\n<p>\u2014 Sean Tuffy (@SMTuffy) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/SMTuffy\/status\/1783781813950845313?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">April 26, 2024<\/a><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">That\u2019s obviously a striking chart, and it demands an explanation. I responded by <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/x.com\/MattWalshBlog\/status\/1783918984208765414\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">saying:<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400\"> <\/span><\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<p><em><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">A lot of theories to explain this but it\u2019s very clearly like 98 percent because of porn.<\/span><\/em><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">I made that observation because the iPhone and Pornhub were both born in 2007. Male virginity rates skyrocketed pretty much from that very moment, as birth rates plunged the opposite direction.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">In reply to my tweet, Musk <a href=\"https:\/\/x.com\/elonmusk\/status\/1784106328971227305\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">wrote this<\/a><\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">: <\/span><\/p>\n<blockquote>\n<p><em><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">It\u2019s not porn, which has been readily available from the days of VHS tapes, but rather the general temptation of the online world, if you\u2019re going to blame it on anything electronic. Sex is not what matters. Lots of people are having sex that have no kids. Population implosion is what will end civilization.<\/span><\/em><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">What Musk is saying about pornography is obviously true. Pornography clearly pre-dates the year 2007. But it was nothing like the pornography that\u2019s been available in the past decade or so.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Here\u2019s one small data point: Playboy at its peak sold around 7 million copies a month. Pornhub \u2014 just one site \u2014 gets something like 15 times as many visitors per day. Way more people are consuming porn today, way more often, starting at way younger ages. And on top of that, the porn itself is way more graphic and debased. This isn\u2019t the whole reason that birth rates are declining. But it is a major plank in the depopulation platform.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">That\u2019s a strong argument for continuing to ban young people from accessing online pornography, which several states have already done. It\u2019s also a good reason for parents to limit or even eliminate their kids access to electronics. And that should just be the beginning. If all of this sounds drastic, it\u2019s probably because you haven\u2019t been fully informed about the scale of the problem that Western civilization is now facing. And that\u2019s by design.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">A few months ago I did a whole <\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.dailywire.com\/news\/the-origins-of-the-anti-human-depopulation-agenda\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">monologue<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">  on the Jaffe Memo, and the origins of Planned Parenthood\u2019s very comprehensive campaign to depopulate the planet. Very powerful \u201cnonprofits\u201d and political organizations in this country don\u2019t want you to reproduce. That\u2019s not conspiratorial; it\u2019s just true. They\u2019ve put it in writing.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">The good news is that this is one of the few problems in our society that pretty much everyone can help solve. It\u2019s maybe the single most solvable crisis in history. They have to expend all this effort and push all this propaganda to discourage reproduction because it\u2019s one of the most natural things a person can do. But the propaganda is failing now. Because of the Natal Conference and efforts like it, as well as Elon Musk and other prominent figures, there\u2019s more attention to declining birth rates than there has been at any point in recent history. That\u2019s why Politico and Left-wing activists are melting down. There\u2019s nothing they want to see less than more children being born. That tells you everything you need to know about their ideology \u2014 and it also tells you how to defeat it.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>In recent years, public health faced criticism for mishandling COVID by overstating its severity.
