History was rewritten to delegitimize population concerns:
we need to reassert the truth.
In the old fable of the Emperor’s New Clothes, people denied
the emperor’s nakedness because they wanted to be seen as smart.
Today people deny overpopulation because they want to be seen as
moral. It is a form of virtue signaling: are you for justice and
equity and families and being nice to refugees, or are you one
of “The People Who Hate People”? Few look at the data to see
whether their position actually favours those goals, or whether,
indeed, they are having the opposite effect, obstructing progress
toward a fairer, more peaceful and sustainable world. How did it
come about that so many people became so passionately misinformed?
