Adaptation. Given the amazing ability of humankind to adapt to any situation, whatever the status quo might be, how are people to know if there is overpopulation, rather than merely obvious overcrowding? Each new generation does somehow manage to adapt to the changing situation and find ways to make life continuable. Today it's round-the-clock party music on radio, lewd behaviour on show, portable devices fixed to ears and of course, drugs. Aside from cannabis sativa, which grows well in the wild, it would appear that the quality of illegal drugs is deteriorating in line with the said status quo, as the reigning authority tries to stamp them out: the users' usual intention is to have a good time and to forget the relentless stresses of overcrowding, not to commit suicide. Government chases after dealers, but is apparently unable to give young people essential, unbiased information about drugs because it is illegal for officials to find out for themselves what the drugs actually do.
The march of humankind into a future which by definition can never arrive is nonetheless extremely destructive to the environment, to nature and to people everywhere. This at least is generally agreed, but the connection with overpopulation is harder to make, just as it seems hard for people to make the connection between obesity and the shopping trolley. It is difficult for conservationists to effect much more than public handwringing, since the populace is unwittingly committed to creeping socialism—and there's another connection that we're unwilling to see: that socialism isn't at all clever, as was once so fondly and vainly supposed; it's just a function of overpopulation and incidentally is the same as the idea of political correctness. (That's surely enough to bring an intellectual socialist nicely up to the boil!) Socialism wants equal shares for all humans in the rape of Planet Earth. It should be clear that socialism is a womb-based theory of population management and we have already noted that the womb is blind.
In our previous post we mentioned the matter of comments, or lack of them. If one is to look at the lists of comments on a wide variety of internet sites one is struck by the stupidity and narrowmindedness of most of those comments, not to mention the very poor command of English. We must therefore inform any readers unlucky enough to come upon this Blog that comments below an acceptable level of cultural attainment will not be, well, accepted. Far better to have innumerable silent 'no comments' than a single foolish one.
