  1. Here is how things look in the world. To have a stable population the birth rate needs to be 2.0 and that is not counting disease or natural disasters. Every western country right now has a birth rate below two. Hungary has realized this and is actively trying to build their marketplace to encourage an increase in birth rate. Germany for the last 40 years has had a birth rate of about 1.3 and its average age is about 45 years old. Pakistan has a birth rate of 3.5 and an average age of 21 years of age. Western populations have only been growing through immigration and not the birth rate.

  2. Western media is ideologically marxist and they are trying to bring about the collapse of capitalism. Hence why everything they do has an agenda and here is the thing most countries media is based on western media so they will follow suit.

  3.  @marwapranata5698  Immigration cannot replace a declining population due to birth rate. What it will do is dilute the existing culture to a point that is unrecognisable.

  4.  @valentinkrajzelman4649  Producing babies is the life blood of a society. Without babies there are no people.

  5.  @HJ_Extravaganza  No. Most western media especially TV media is being run by those that have come out of social science departments of Universities. Print media still has variety with there still being an old left vs right but not TV media. Critical theory has run rampant in TV media. Karl Marx is the grandfather of Critical theory which today is used to model race, economics and sexual orientation.

  6.  @lamontkhoza2856  That is the beauty of the US system in that it can withstand direct assaults from such ideologies as Marxism. But I am not convinced it will be able to withstand a multi generational cultural change that has taken place in media and education that is targeting children and teenagers. I hope I am wrong. The Market Economy is still dominant but then again it would have been unimaginable 50 years ago mutilating boys and calling them girls would be acceptable.

  7.  @somethingsecretsteersus5115  I think it is cultural rather than some big conspiracy theory. I do not think there is real control over any of this.

  8.  @lamontkhoza2856  What you are saying is that Hegel theories influenced Marx but here is the thing Hegel's theories were never adapted directly into social sciences. When we talk about critical theory it cannot be separated from Marxism in the modern context. I do understand what you mean and I may as well say it Karl Marx was not exactly original his theories were unified ideologies. It is just easier to say Marxism than to actually try and explain the development of Marxism which is a complicated discussion in its own right.

  9.  @thehuman2cs715  Fox and CNN are cable and are not having a major influence on the culture. No it is the 3 network channels that are dictating reality. Such as them saying peaceful protests while cities were on fire and having their reporters threatened on air while they reported the happy family atmosphere. Unfortunately these contradictions only are seen once in a while. Most of the propaganda that they push is also in their entertainment shows.

  11. And at the same time his political ilk have reduced the population of liberal as their birth rate is near to 0.

  12.  @MeowingWhale  Of course they rely on the market economy but guess what so did the Marxists that destroyed Russia.

  13.  @Crashed131963  America has reduced its carbon output more than any other western nation and also has far cleaner air than Europe or Asia. The US has done this with the same population as western Europe.

  15. The only way power shifts to the east is if the west become really weak which right now it looks like it will do but that can change. Just to add the only demographic in America having children is conservatives and that means most of those living in rural and small town America. In the next 25 years conservatives are going to dominate American politics as the demographics start to show. Baby boomers by and large are liberal and their parents were conservative and now we are going to see that flip.

  16.  @scarecrow559fresno  Mexicans are devout catholics that are opposed to abortion, relations before marriage and they also oppose socialism. Once conservatives figure this out and start to make them a target audience it will flip on Democrats. Where democrats do have an advantage is on African muslim communities in America but it will not produce the level of results they need and some of them will vote conservative as well. Liberal socialist birth rate in America has collapsed and it cannot be turned around that easily.

  17.  @marwapranata5698  You cannot replace a culture that is not producing babies with immigration.

  18.  @44bett  Latinos are not liberal socialists. Now let us be specific Mexicans are extremely conservative and the reason they vote democrat is due to the lies that are being told. And once conservatives can tap into that voter base it will damage democrats further. Republicans did not need to actually outright win the Mexican vote they just need to get a good proportion to not vote democrat. Cubans used to vote democrat and the moment their community start to figure out that democrats were hardcore socialists they flipped very rapidly.

  23.  Monke  Marxist theory has dominated education. The social sciences has been overrun by it. Economic theory is being defined by it. Even the scientific method is under pressure from it. Your automatic use of the term billionaire which is just from Marx and the Bourgeoisie and proletariat concept. You probably didn't even know you were doing this. The real power of propaganda is those that are subjected to it do not even know they are subjected to it.

  25. I do not want to sound ruthless but if you are young you can run rings around people of your generation. They are so easy to manipulate and have no real world experience nor do they see the reality of nature.

  26.  @scarecrow559fresno  One of the reasons why democrats are so open to immigration is due to them needing to replace voters due to the low fertility rate of Socialist Liberal voters. By the way this low birth rate is has been at play since the 1980s and over the next few decades it will start to become really apparent. And here is another thing the Mexicans who are coming into America are not actually translating in a voting replacement pattern the way democrats had hoped. Just to add abortion does not seem like a hot political top now but in the next few decades republicans are really going to push that issue for vote winning among latinos.

  27.  @malin5468  It will not work trying to replace a culture with immigrants. Cultures that have tried to replace their population for whatever reason weather that be war or disease has always failed.

  28. In the US only conservatives are having children. The rest are too busy out protesting and having their strong independent female careers to actually realize what is going on. The US is going to have a population decline and what remains will be conservatives to start rebuilding. At some point over the next 25 years conservatives are going to dominate politics in America and that is when the population will start growing again.

  29.  @kalerug  In certain states the democrats are hardcore socialists. The Democratic Socialists of America in congress are socialists and make no effort to hide that.

  30.  @Hotasianchick  I made it about politics because Liberal socialists that are the majority of the young city living and voting are not having babies. And when some of them do have babies it is late in the game and they will only have one children. In certain states the Conservative birth rate is 5 children per women. Politics is going to play a role in this. Out of the 4 million babies being born every year in the US near to 90% of those children are from conservative communities. That does not mean they are republican just that they have certain beliefs. The black community in America is extremely conservative when it comes to social issues.

  32.  @shadowthehedgehog3113  US birth rate per women is 1.7 down from 2 and it will go back up above two again. Immigration has nothing to do with that. The US has 100 million available men at military age.

  33.  @Egilhelmson  The good thing about America is that most families are conservative and the only people have children are conservatives. Whiny socialist liberals are not having children and it is they that will find a population collapse within. So at some point the demographics of politics will actually damage the socialist political agenda that is making it harder for people to have families.
