    Disgusting, shockingly vile and evil man. It’s never too late for him to slip into an early grave. The sooner the better.

    The US is now under 1.6, 1.599 for 2024.https://www.pbs.org/newshour/nation/the-u-s-fertility-rate-reached-a-new-low-in-2024-cdc-data-shows

    The US has always had immigration to support it’s industrialized nation rate that has dropped significantly after the baby boom ended, but it’s a starkly different world were now entering where not only are immigrants from traditional countries now being aggressively excluded but also many immigrants able to clearly see the US is a failed state that will not offer stability or future prosperity for them or family and will opt for safer, alternatives.

    Losing a base of immigration will upend the economy in ways not yet that visible but each month it will have a greater impact.

      Having children is the ultimate endorsement of the future. It signals hope that things will get better. Such a belief is no longer rational. Young couples don’t have houses or job security or wage growth or social stability. Every metric is trending downward. We’re living in a boring neofeudalist dystopia of cancerous idiocracy, nihilism, and open corruption. Cultists run the world. Religious cultists. Political cultists. Celebrity cultists.

    • will opt for safer, alternatives.

      Unfortunately, not many options for most people.

      There will still be many people who come to the US, lets be real. (Unless it actually gets to the point of actual mass murders)

      Family based immigrants are one of the major groups. The reality is, there are still like… millions of family-sponsored immigration application pending. They can’t just choose to go to like… Canada for example, they got no family there.

      I have relatives in China still on this waitlist thing ever since 2015, application sponsored by my mother, no idea if they’ll decide to come tho if approved, the application was filed 10 years ago, now their kids are like aging out, idk if their kids can still come, or if it’ll even get approved at all.

      The difference between my mother and the aunts (her sisters), is my mother violated the One Child Policy to have me, so she can’t be a teacher again, while my aunts are teachers, so I heard its supposed to be a stable job, so they might have less incentives to start a new life somewhere else, whereas my mother had to work in the private-sector since public-sector jobs and state owned enterprises banned employment as punishment for the policy violation thing I mentioned. And her job sucked doing sales stuff sucked. Dad was unemployed afaik. So my parents had a greater incentive to come here.

      Their kids, even if able to come here, like learning English at age twenty sometimhing is much harder than I was when I was 8 years old…

      so yea… that’s my family story

    Maybe they should have a breeding program for foreigners.

    I wouldn’t mind taking a paid vacation to Russia just to impregnate some babes and not have to stick around to raise the kids.

    When I’m having a lot of diarrhoea, I lose my appetite because I think what’s the point? It won’t be long before I shit it all out again.

    Russian couples are seeing the death rate of young Russian conscripts and think what’s the point? It won’t be long before I don’t have a child again.

    Why raise a child only to have it killed 18 years later in Putin’s stupid war in Ukraine?

    And the state will support them with childcare, preschools, child allowances etc because the teens will be at peak performance levels in looking after kids 😬. A bit hard to believe given that Russia is a kleptocracy and the thieves aren’t likely to be giving money away to kids.
