  1. Great video. A few contentions I had with it are this: 1. Big part of the reason why a lot of countries do not tackle the population decline problem is inside your video. The downgrade of capitalism and the rise of feudalism or hard corporatism. A lot of already rich people want to keep their positions and will do anything to achieve that. Even if it is preventing their countries from recovering their population. 2. Climate Change is widely an overblown problem. It makes the people occupied and distracted from real problems like stagnant wages vs rising prices, energy crisis and population decline. 3. While widely unrealistic in implementation, a repeal of women's emancipation and rights is as far as we know the only way we can fix a problem like this. Unfortunately the Western world will never be able to achieve something like this without a revolution and dictatorship, however this is exactly why I believe countries like China will not suffer as much as the West. The government can shut down feminists and they can implement authoritarian policies to get women to have children without much persuasion. Costs or "time" are far from the issue of the population decline. But those are the only ones that modern countries seem to be tackling. The reality of the situation is that as countries become richer and richer people forget what suffering looks like, people forget to be proud and greatful of their countries (and in result don't take on the responsibilities that come with that) and people leave organised religion for self centrism and materialism. A more realistic response than absolute repeal of women's emancipation is religiousness and moral values. Unless our societies transform to a more communitarian and religious structure, I doubt there will be any change. This is also extremely unlikely but far more likely than the reversal of feminism. Now what is more likely to happen is an "apocalypse". Which means societal collapse and rise of groups seeking to take power and fix or revitalize the old empires. Another likely scenario is that countries that have kept high birth rates will take over those that haven't once they collapse. Now if either of those were to happen, death will come all over those failed societies and general rights will regress for both the average man and woman. Which is why I hope that my 2 mostly unrealistic solutions come to pass.
