Overpopulation arguments ignore the elephant in the room, which is the unequal distribution and consumption of resources.
The earth can support billions, but it cannot support billionaires.

@DGI So is this a quote from Graeber? (If so where was it from)

@DGI Eriarvoisuushan synnyttää ylikansoittumista kehitysmaadiktatuureissa kun köyhillä ei ole varaa ehkäisyyn, ei koulutusta/tietotaitoa ehkäisystä.
Kehitysmaadiktatuureja myös hallitaan pitämällä kansalaiset oppimattomina ja tietämättöminä. Hallitsijat hallitsevat myös papistojaan, jotka aivopesevät kansaa harhaisilla uskomuksilla.
Diktaattorit ovat väkivaltaisia ja unelmoivat valtavista armeijoistaan ja myös kalifaattisensa laajennuksista päästäkseen maailman herroiksi.

@DGI but your argument ignores the fact that humans are human, which is just as much a sin. "We could do X if we were a different species with a fundamentally different psychological makeup"

Your response reflects a very limited caricature of human nature that frames it as the cause of our current nightmarish predicament, and is used as an excuse for the oppressive, violent and coercive power structures and the disingenuous, toxic concepts behind them that are the actual cause. It's like watching a circus elephant riding a tricycle and describing that as an elephant's natural behavior.
It was in fact the characteristics of a very small and specific group of humans who happened to end up with the power (and happenstance, such as spreading diseases) to decimate and oppress/enslave/exploit other cultures, that led to where we are now. Those other cultures demonstrated (and still do to some extent) the vast potential of creativity, adaptability, cooperation, and nature-friendliness of real human nature throughout the planet and hundreds of millennia before the imaginary but all-powerful god Capital took over.
Here are some links I recommend for a broader perspective on human nature and our cultural evolution/history:
