Before getting to the remarks in the video below, about “living through the greatest Western population bust in human history,” let me first bring attention to something I recently noticed.
While visiting Russia, there are several social factors exclusive to this nation. Some of the distinctions are relatively new, (resurgence of religion and faith supported by the state), and some of the developments have been taking place over a longer arc of history, (expanded national population, and family incentives supported by the state).
It might seem like an odd thing to notice, but the number of Russian families with young children far exceeds that seen in any other EU metropolitan area and/or American city.
If you look at the issue from a review of children aged 4 to 10, the difference is stunning. The number of Russian people with children in Russian cities far exceeds the number of Americans seen with children in large urban areas of the USA.
Kevin Dolan talks about the depopulation problem at a Natal conference in 2023. It’s not a scientific addendum, but from my own observations during travel; it is quite noticeable how American children, in the 4 to 10-year-old age range, have seemingly disappeared. WATCH:
.
Scott Adams on his life and kids. Warning, it will being a tear to your eye, especially knowing he lost his stepson to fentanyl:
After watching that I can’t really think about what my life video would look like. But I most certainly know what I thought about when I walked into the hospital room and knew that my son was almost gone, if not already gone. I recounted the time he helped plant the trees in my backyard when he was four and the sand castles we built and the movie in my brain recounted the most beautiful of memories…children are a treasure and gift from God above and ‘should’ always be treated as such.
Sad and beautiful. Must take enormous strength and reliance on God.
Yes. My reliance on God helped me immensely. When I lost my husband 10 months ago, 2 years after my son, all I thought was, they are finally together and it must have have been a beautiful reunion. God in his infinite wisdom blessed me with a very unexpected beautiful grandchild last year. God is good and gracious always.
As a mom that’s been there, I extend my sincere condolences on the loss of your son & a great big hug.
You’re right about the treasured memories of our children’s lives. Unfortunately, we’re both in a club that nobody wants to join & we don’t want any newcomers either.
Hugs and condolences to you as well. It was very hard to write that but it’s true. I’m sure you went through the same thing.
Already a member of that club…
Meanwhile, cases brought many years after the fact –
I am sorry, but it is such BS for women who are grown ups that don’t raise holy hell when it happened, supposedly –
meanwhile, whatever our President Joe Biden did IN FRONT OF THE WORLD at those Senate swearing-in ceremonies where he was hurting little girls – I don’t want to say “fondling” or even “molesting” – he was HURTING them and their stupid parents were standing right there –
meanwhile, let’s go after Gerard Depardieu and Donald Trump for what?
Even Bill Cosby, okay, the stupid women KNEW he was married, they had no business being there and it is total bullshit to our system to bring those cases and E. Jean Carroll and the Stormy Daniels “hush money” case – oh, and let’s get in an uproar over the Trump “Golden Showers” dossier that was so ludicrous – Trump is a notorious germaphobe, there is no way in hell he would have been mixed up in that!
Meanwhile, finally some kind of justice for the gymnasts with the payout “FROM the FBI” but actually from the American taxpayers – did anyone lose their jobs or go to jail for helping to cover it up?
So yes, the human depopulation continues, while other things are going on simultaneously to destroy the stability, the trustability – to threaten to destroy the lives of the little ones who DO make it into this world, only to be under attack and assaulted with Drag Queen story hours, trans indoctrination and even destroying their own ability to have children by causing them to forfeit that . . . could a person hope that if Presidential immunity is destroyed forever after what they are trying to do to President Trump, that we will finally see some justice against Joe Biden for his gruesome deeds during the Senate swearing-in ceremonies? He was not even President yet so why shouldn’t he be pursued now? It’s all on tape!
Right out in the open –
No one said boo about it either.
They’re STILL ignoring the reality of Pedo Pete.
Manhandling the child

schmoozing the parent
Joe Biden IS the bad man
Ma warned her children to
stay away from
and never take candy from.
I’ll stop now

That cameraman knew what he was zooming into.
“He was not even President yet so why shouldn’t he be pursued now? It’s all on tape!”
Yes, it is and there are plenty of black people that were hurt by his actions. Judge Joe Brown has a lot to say about that.

Some of the men incarcerated because of FJB might have grown up to be responsible men. Instead they were put in prison because of petty weed offenses and really taught how to be gangster criminals.
Amen. Bring back that beautiful male energy. Provide and protect. So precious.
It didn’t leave.
well it’s not as visible these days I’m sorry to say.
Depends where you live Dix…..
That’s fair. My house and family do it a bit differently.
Correct.
<Bring back that beautiful male energy…>
Wife & I married in our 20s. Still together 47 years later. Raised 3 kids. Ironically, last week had our daughter’s 18 month old grandson sitting on my lap while answering a text from our youngest son re his 18 day old baby. Got a call from our oldest son & his 18 y/o son. Point of the story is its not only about having kids, but raising them to be good parents themselves. We all live quite a distance a part but manage to stay involved in each other’s lives. We’re blessed and wouldn’t change a thing. Life’s success is not just producing kids, it’s producing quality people
amen, it is difficult to perceive the absence of children, when iou are related to many in that age group.
We need boys to grow up to be men!
*Being a father is pretty darned important, too.
Yes…. Indeed👍🏼
I agree w/the sentiment, but honestly what I am seeing out in public is almost a human transformation. Some of them seem to have the testosterone drained out of them. They are males that are not following the agenda or school influence, they simply are not of the male persuasion even though they are clearly male. They are like limp dish rags. Whether it is the food, vaxxines, water, something has altered them. No amount of hanging out w/fathers or other male mentors, being taught manly things, is going to make them into men. There is just something wrong going on.
It is scary. As a kid I remember watching the Olympics and seeing the East Germans that weren’t human, it is kinda like that.
The pill is in the water supply.
I’ve thought for a long time that they are poisoning our food and water.
The time when multiple generations of families lived together passed decades ago.
The oligarchs & their bought & paid for gubmint hoors together have made it all but economically impossible for young adults to form families.
According to Dr Naomi Wolf & DailyClout.io investigation, They’ve also done immeasurable harm to young bodies with forced c-19 vaccination. Many have lost pregnancies & many more will forever be unable to create & sustain life.
This is side effect of the vaccine that is not forced on the foreign invaders who already out breed us because they aren’t required to support their broods. We’re required to support them & ourselves so it’s no wonder that we can’t sustain our own population.
For what they’ve done to the citizens of the US, we should arrange their meeting with their maker.
The issues for women were discovered fairly early on. Pfizer was also aware.

So noted
Hilarious!
Mark Steyn has been on this for years.
I’m not sure that age groups has ‘disappeared’ per se, I am Canadian and have a 5 year-old son and he has plenty of friends his age, I just try not bring him out too much in public because he’s in the want everything stage of his life and I cant afford that (and I’m tired of saying no!)
I hope he has siblings!
We’re trying lol
It would seem that Russia will win the war of organic population growth.
That is if the nut jobs that run the West dont nuke them first.
Russia has about the same birth rate as USA. It has very similar rate of birth rate decline as well. The 90s probably resulted in Russia missing 2M 25 to 30 year olds. Their birth rate during that decade declined severely.
Kind of points to Putin as a great statesman, whatever else he might be.
The West used to mean White gentile people.
Has it changed to mean something else?
Unfortunately, that changed a long time ago. ‘They’ changed it for us. Much of the population still feels that way.
Not “gentile”. “The West” means people of western European descent, primarily, as agnostics, Christians, Catholics, who care about the Westphalian nation-state idea, safety, law, etc. The idea that with some accommodation, people with differing backgrounds can make a CIVILIZED COUNTRY & SOCIETY.
The “West” means non-Jewish White people.
I don’t know; not long ago I was reading online and someone had lumped Japan in with the West. Perhaps because compared to other parts of Asia they are a little more like us? Your guess is as good as mine.
I have noticed that the same thing as a classroom teacher in Northern Virginia. In a classroom of 23, I have four native born American children, and four languages spoken other than English. Just a few years ago this would have been unheard of.
I’m curious.
Of all the posters in this forum… how many put their money where their mouth is?
How many send money to help out Sundance? How many give donations to the local charities? How many give money to help their local politicians… Trump?
I got a nagging feeling that a lot of people just like to complain a lot, smuggly content in their complaining but then DO NOTHING about it.
Time to send more money… 20 bucks is all it takes sometimes you know.
BTW… charity has ways of making your life better. Crazy… there was this Christmas not so long ago where I lost my contract, very unexpectedly. But I kept giving $20 bills to the Salvation Army, etc… I figured there are people who need the money much more badly that we did…
Out of the blue, I got a Christmas gift… a better job!
Call me a fool, but when I see what looks like someone in need, I’m sure 9 out of 10 times I’m getting scammed… but if just 1 out of 10 needs the money, I’m more than happy to oblige.
I figure the other 9 will get their karma…. but that 1 that needed it will get their food.
Then you got my aunt…. she’s 81 and spends her days helping out at a hospice. I truly admire her.
I try and send the occasional donation to Sundance and to President Trump, wish I could do more.
As for the “charities,” the more I learn about them the less inclined I am to contribute. Used to send $ to Red Cross… until I found out the chairman had a $500,000 salary. The NGOs we now know are literally working against the success of America. I like to contribute to food pantries, it’s a Biblical admonition, but so frequently now read that what is freely given is spurned and rejected. Often by those who are clearly not missing any meals.
I confess I feel much stingier about where my charitable dollars go. St. Louis has a lot – A LOT – of service people, and the ones they are serving are the invaders that we’re all forced to support. The more the government takes, the less I feel inclined to give.
I only donate to charities in my community. I have checked them out, and every one of them is led by someone who takes no compensation for their time and efforts.
Oh and the CTH!
What very little I can spare, I prefer to distribute MYSELF. None to foreign freeloaders or druggies. None to phony charities that claim to help but divert the money elsewhere.
I never contributed to political campaigns. I toss a few bucks into the basket at church. I now do an unheard of monthly contribution to President Trump for $20. I support certain businesses that align with my views such as MyPillow/Mike Lindell. Mike may be a kook but he is my kind of kook. I thought about giving to other organizations but it appears that every organization is corrupt to the bone and I only have so much to give.
I used to give to Salvation Army until they went woke. There are still some local missions I help when I can, which is less and less thanks to leftist politicians.
CTH, Trump, Charities, every month without fail.
Me, too.
As a general rule I do not give cash to random charities without having some idea of how they will use it.
The overhead expenses of some are shockingly bad. I.e. cash donations to the Red Cross. I have a separate beef with them in particular but this is not the time or place for that discussion.
Individuals are on a case by case basis. I prefer giving anonymously as I rather not have the public recognition. Like donating gifts for children through Toys for Tots and leaving donations for the collection plate in a church.
For the record, I have donated to the Treehouse as well as the Canadian Truckers convoy a couple years back among other causes.
Not all who are charitable are as forthcoming about some of those details.
I suspect many here donate time and money in many places, particularly their local churches.
The Salvation Army is a total anti American theft racket.
Red Cross has had some disturbing issues revealed about them also.
They used to very trustworthy. What happened to them?
I DO KNOW that they got targeted by the LGB group, over and over, I think the mistake was to try to make peace with them.
They went woke.
I’m a Roman Catholic…. not practicing… can not give them money.
My wife belongs to some Shinto sect, so we give money there.
Agree on the Salvation Army… but, but… if only 10% of my money goes to help someone in need…
Samaritan’s Purse seems, to me, to be quite good.
What I (we) need is somewhere they give money directly to people who need it. I give money when I see a pandhandler that looks like they are really down on their luck..
Or when you see someone on the median selling fresh flowers… I figure that’s hard work, so I buy something from them. Particular for men, I figure that keeps their dignity.
Sometimes I feel my aunt does it better, she donates her time and life… really.
How about donating to “micro banks”?
Why should anyone feel the need to announce it? I can tell you that I don’t give to charity, and I don’t give to churches anymore.
You don’t have to announce it… I don’t. I seldom tell my wife either.
But, I’m curious about the group in here. Getting ideas because “organized charity” can be a racket.
Obviously, I want my money to go where it does the most good, devoid of strings. No proselytizing.
Ideally, the money should go directly to those in need, but it’s hard to find them sometimes.
There was this other Christmas.. I was going to Trader Joe’s and out on the bench was a young woman, no more than 20, with what looked to be a 2 year old and a baby. She was not making eye contact, just a sign and a bucket with some cash.
It damn broke my heart.
There was an ATM near by and I had envelopes in the car. This is the first time I ever told this to anyone. Now, if that young lady was playing games on me, so be it… but, on the remote chance that she was honest (she seemed a bit uncomfortable begging ) I sure hope my money helped her with the rent and food through Christmas.
To be honest, I slipped the envelope in her bucket quietly and walked away. I just smiled at the little kid. It still breaks my heart. I got absolutely no joy from that donation… I just figure I took some of the pain from her and carry it with me.
I so wish I could do so much more.
That, IMHO, is what charity should be about… not to feel better yourself, but to actually take the pain and misfortunate from the shoulders of others.
Well if you’ve got $20 bills to hand out, then you’re sure doing a whole lot better than this little old lady on social security, bub.
Well, just give according to your ability to give.
My aunt is not rich, so she gives her time.
Covid bio weapon and Jab bio weapon depop? Also drugs of all kinds add to the depop.
I think there are many children in the world who need homes and parents.
It would be nice if good, normal people were allowed to adopt them. I’m sure many would. But with government pulling the strings and keeping the gates it won’t happen.
I remember an old TV show called “Mama,” based on a play titled “I Remember Mama.” It’s long past due for a follow up play titled “I Don’t Remember Papa.” I, and many others, have already lived it.
“Where’s Poppa?”
There’s a French singer with a song called Papaoutai, (Father where are you?)
Posting the link to avoid trouble with a tangentially related music video, includes lyrics in English and French.
Good video by the way, Stromae is an interesting character and great singer.
The depopulation is of white people. Not other races….in white America the average family has 2 kids, in Hispanic America it is 4 and I am not talking illegals coming over the border. These are first or more generation Americans living by their traditional values. So, have more kids if you are so concerned.
Have to wonder though if even the second and third generation Hispanic families are also experiencing declining birth rates. The suburban Chicago town I grew up in went from all white in the 1970s to predominantly Hispanic by early 2000s. Well I recently read that two elementary schools in the area are closing due to declining enrollment.
Could be that people are just getting the heck out as fast as they can.
“So have more kids if you are so concerned.” Check. I wanted more than two children so I could leave this world a ‘plus one.’ At that time the ENEmedia propaganda discouraged having babies. I didn’t listen.
I also didn’t listen when my own parents and in-laws insisted I should go back to my job instead of staying home with my children. I reared some really great young people who add so much to this world.
I also didn’t listen to the Branch Covidians. I didn’t isolate from my loved ones or take any poison death shots, and I also prevented several of my loved ones from submitting to that particular depopulation event. I can’t take credit for that one though, that was God‘s grace.
There are so many more depopulation events in the hopper now. It’s getting harder to keep up, but I’m trying to live my best life.
My advice is pray to God daily and listen to your own gut intuition. Have faith that God will save our souls.
I would but that ship has long sailed (and sank). But I’m overjoyed that I got to have 4 (and 12 grandkids, with 3 great grands and counting).
Back before I was red pilled I was reading about B Gates and he was talking about how vaccines would manage population. And remember wondering about that – how would vaccines do that ?
Now I know.
Bill Gates is a monster.
I read Marin Katusa’s book (can’t remember the title). He talks about how we’re in a deflationary period. By the of this century China will be under a billion people.
I’ll try to find his stats, but everywhere loses population by 2100. The US was one of the places with less loss (think immigration).
Baby boomer’s are what drove the retail expansion in mall’s.
There may be some temporary inflation but the overall trend in the next 75 years is deflationary.
Think about the US debt when the population is shrinking. Every dollar borrowed must be paid off by fewer and fewer people, paid with dollars that represent greater and greater value. Inflating money supply is great for borrowers. Not so great when money supply shrinks.
I have 9 children 5 daughters married (2 daughters not yet married 2 sons not married). there are 22 grandchildren between them (the oldest is 10 yrs old-no twins) #23, 24, 25 on the way this summer and fall. God willing there will be more. we also attend a church where large families are the norm. after i raised my family i happen to work in a firm chock full of libs most young unmarried, some married no kids some married 1 or 2 kids. it’s interesting to see the other side. the vast majority of these people fall for every passing fancy eg the almighty sanitary napkin face thingys, the jab, ukraine flags, etc and i laugh to myself and just collect my paycheck & go about my merry way. my 94yr old mother lives with us also & she regularly sees all of her grandkids & great grandchildren. it’s not easy at times but it’s never boring. we love Jesus (The Answer to all of our problems) we love this country and we can’t wait to vote for Pres Trump.
The toxic shots we were required to take in order to get out of lockdown prison have been shown, beyond a doubt, to destroy fertility in women and men. I watched a slide show of pathological slides done by a pathologist who was able to make slides of, for example, the testis: there were zero spermatozoa in the testis! The slide was from a man who had been vaccinated with the Covid vaccine. The other slides showed how the spike protein that each cell was now producing led to blood vessel wall damage: the walls of the blood vessels started to fall apart, and the cells from the wall of the blood vessels fell into the blood vessel. Then inflammatory cells went to that spot and a clot was formed. There are so many bodily harms from these poisonous shots, but the most serious problem is, WILL OUR GRANDCHILDREN BE ABLE TO HAVE CHILDREN?
I cannot discuss this concern with my daughter (she has two sons, one who is now 4 and the other who is7) who is very independent and doesn’t want to discuss anything that she feels might be my political agenda. Okay, so I don’t discuss it with her. But how will it be for her if she never is able to become a grandmother? I feel I am damned if I do and damned if I don’t try to discuss this with her. I have lived with this worry for several years now and still have not figured out the right way to be.
What is in my grandchildren’s future? Will they be sterile due to the shots that NYC requires for children to attend school? Will we ever be able to arrest and bring to justice those who have caused this plague (not the supposed virus but the poison shots) upon our people?
You should ask her if living in NYC is worth sterilizing her kids over.. because I’m sure at some point they’ll be asking her this.
I’ve told my kids they need to ascertain someone’s vaccine status before they date let alone marry anyone. Why risk it?
They need to go further than that. Sadly, I have spoken to people who don’t even share the same values as their spouses.
Of course they run the risk of coming off like a paranoid lunatic.
Grand dtr married a military man 2+ years ago. He was jabbed as he wanted to stay in the Army. They have a 2 yo and 7 day old. So there is hope.
By the way, that makes me a *great* grandma and the babies are adorable! :):)
Note – as for the rest of our family (immediate & extended), we are *NOT jabbed*.
God created Man
Man is made in His image
Satan hates the Lord God Almighty.
Satan hates all Mankind.
People who have given themselves over to darkness work to enable Satan in destroying every beautiful vestige of the Lord’s Creation, any way that they can.
Keep praying!
Their website is natalism.org. I found several articles on google at “Kevin Dolan of natalism.org”.
I don’t think it was happenstance that in trying to catch up with the links at Lew Rockwell after a weeks absence, this was the first one I chose.
Many people, myself included, often ask how on earth have we come this terrible state of affairs where it seems the world is one lit match away from imploding, destroying all we thought was secure, especially in this country.
This essay is incredibly long.
But it is brilliantly written by a woman who knows exactly the long march through history which has all but delivered us into the concentration camps long dreamed of and planned for by names everyone here will know.
Aldous Huxley wrote of depopulation as a goal for the insidious “intellectuals” he mingled with. There were many more who agreed with him and planned assiduously for the times we are enduring now.
I am halfway through reading this, but I stopped to bring this to the attention of my Treehouse family.
Especially as by coincidence (never!!) Sundance has put this thread up about depopulation.
It’s always worth remembering that information is power. Which is exactly why the hideous monsters engineering everything wish for us to not have it.

Betsy, I read Elizabeth Nickson’s substack and I enjoy her very, very much.
I’m sharing with you Tucker’s latest interview in Russia with Aleksandr Dugin, his writings are banned in the USA, however, I believe you will understand why after watching this interview. The leftys didn’t want us to know what was the ultimate goal.
I sincerely thank you for this, Abigail. I am looking forward to hearing this interview.
Banned in the US you say? Now where have I heard of that before 😎
Just starting, but I remember when his daughter was murdered. I had no idea Tucker had bagged a sit down interview 👍🏻
A concise summing up of the whys of the godless agenda being brought to bear. Harari, who he mentioned, states publicly that “there is no God in the sky.” That they (the “elites”) are the ” gods” now.
There should be no doubt that many antichrists are at work. satan is having his short time and trying to alter those God made in His image in myriad ways. All part and parcel of what cannot be denied as the spiritual war which is raging all around us.
And while we know that absolutely the Victory is Christ’s, that the Victory has been won, I feel we are headed into much darker times before His promised return.
Just a short opinion after hearing this man say out loud confirming what I have been reading since 2020. Thank you, Abigail.
That reminds me of a time when as a first grader we were watching a film in our class, wherein a man claimed that a Russian cosmonaut had proven that God did not exist. He claimed that he “went to Heaven (presumably he flew a rocket there) opened the door, looked around and saw no God”. I thought it was a hilarious claim. Don’t know if it were true, or the film maker just made it up.
I never see babies or children under five when out in public anymore. I can count on one hand the number of babies I’ve seen in the last year. I suspect many have been left sterile from covid vaccines. Just a hunch.
Your hunch is 100% correct .
The sad part is, when I do see babies under five in the supermarket or elsewhere they are glued to a screen. No parent interactions. It’s infuriating.
In my neighborhood they’re everywhere.
Well, I teach Sunday school at our church, and I’m hear to tell you, there are lots of 4-10 year olds there! It’s packed to the rafters and we need to expand.
And there are a lot of pregnant young mothers there, too.
I think it depends a lot on where you are in the country, and whether it is urban or rural.
Suburban?
The book “What to Expect When No One is Expecting” warned us of this. I did my part, had 10 children. The oldest is 23, my youngest is 3. It has been depressing watching the family culture in America decline as I raise my own children.
Dearest Deb, Amen! May you, and your lovely family, be blessed beyond all measure!
https://www.americanthinker.com/blog/2024/04/kristi_noem_v_joe_biden_in_the_indecency_sweepstakes.html
Which explains the utopian, statist, collectivist uproar about Kristi Noem putting down a potentially dangerous dog and nary a peep from them about the millions of humans who are aborted.
The latter is depopulation.
Tucker did this interview in Russia; fortunately, this is perfect for Sundance’s post today:
I hope you enjoy it.
https://tuckercarlson.com/the-tucker-carlson-encounter-aleksandr-dugin/
Thank you for posting, I now know why the left hates Putin so much, he is a traditionalist very much like someone else we know who they seem to hate even more.
Deagle.com may be correct about the sheer size of the US depopulation by next year. When I first saw his graphs on depopulation by country a few years back, they were hard to believe. These days maybe not so much
ALL VACCINES have been completely reformulated to contain nanotech and mRNA it’s not just the covid jab . There has been a massive reduction in births of those who have submitted to these jabs .
Yes. I believe it. Imagine standing outside the front door at Auschwitz and thinking: I DON’T want to enter this door. But maybe THAT door is okay?
It’s the same damn thing people. Big Harma by any other name is ..well.. Big Harma. THINK!!
This is terrifying and I have no doubt whatsoever it’s true .
What Dr. Paul Alexander Was Told Privately About the VVV’s in 2020
https://www.europereloaded.com/what-dr-paul-alexander-was-told-privately-about-the-vvvs/
My apologies, wrong thread.
Western women want careers and material things, not children and families. This view is ingrained in young girls by the media and all other social reinforcement. Housewives who stay home and raise children are mocked and looked upon as failures and dumb. People refuse to acknowledge this and keep looking for other reasons.
My son’s girlfriend is Russian. He says Russian women expect men to take care of them/support them totally, so a man had better have a very well-paying job in order to make it on one income in the USA. Not so easy anymore.
Much easier with a woman who understands her own role in such a healthy marital arrangement.
I went to Paris, France in late August 2001 (Yes, 911 happened while I was there and that’s another interesting story), at the time I was a pretty devout, practing Catholic ( I have since left the Church in 2015), and I went to Sunday Mass with my Old Woman host from Neuilly. First thing I noticed was that the mass had only 1 young family with young Children at the mass, the rest of the mass attendees were people 50 + years old. But every Mosque I went by during my 3 weeks there was packed with young Families with tons of children. It was at that moment when I saw the writing on the wall for Europe and I saw the same thing at my Catholic Church in Western WA State in 2015, only with Latinos.
Latinos are good people too.
They can be.
So are the Irish.
You get more of what you subsidize, and leftist governments subsidize the problematic at the expense of the excellent, and guess what you get? It’s not so much depopulation as it is ideocracy.
A big issue is the courts and divorce laws. Those need to be heavily reformed/done away with (ESPECIALLY child support). The problem is that the courts/lawyers couldn’t financially profit off of healthy families not needing to come to them to arbitrate divorces and the splitting of assets which they also take their cut of. The real issue is that our society is parasitic and not symbiotic. Russia and Hungary are trying to create a positive feedback loop for their people to invest in their society than then invests back into them in kind.
That’s the major thing that has change here in the US to fix our issues.
That’s a significant issue for certain, there is too much power and profit in divorce.
In Korea the law has settled who gets the children, brilliantly; the woman nurtures them until eight years of age, the father then socializes them the rest of the way.
Little incentive for either party to destroy their family; much less chance for the children to be harmed by the denial of either parent in the cases they don’t work it out.
Divorce courts, and personal experience with step parents were why I stayed in my at times hellish marriage until my children were older. I freely admit to being a far less than perfect mom and my ex was no prize either, but we both did honestly love our children, and even if we were screwed up in a lot of ways, miraculously they turned out ok.
I fought to keep it going as long as I could, at great cost to myself, for those very same reasons.
If I remember correctly the prediction that global population would max out around 2050. It will decline for the next 50 years after.
Most of the world is hanging around simple replacement and countries like Italy, China and Japan are already shrinking. The world is going to be a very different place.
Populations will shrink.
Will assets and commodities, particularity overvalued ones at that deflate commensurate with that change in demand? I doubt it.
I’ve tried to wrap my mind around investing in a long term deflationary cycle. All the knowledge we have is derived from observing growth.
Sure am glad that you are safely back on American soil!
Eagerly awaiting hearing more about your trip.
Sundance has been running the Treehouse out of Russia for a while now, have yet to hear him say he has returned.
Yes, I am aware of that. Reading rhe first 2 paragraphs, I must have read the “are” as a “were” and/or assumed he was back (and you know what assume does!)
Wishful thinking, I suppose. I will breathe a sigh of relief when it transpires.
I’m entirely comfortable with him there, will continue to pray that the journey back is safe, whenever that comes to pass.
Thomas Malthus was proven wrong on so many levels.

yep, the de-population mongers have many sayings to groom us into oblivion
Magnificent photos, light and angle are perfect.
I want to know more about Russians, of which Muscovites.
I’ve traveled so much, I got sick of it, too many plane trips per year for a very long time. But now, I want to make one last trip and I’m thinking Russia. And I know we are many.
Who would have thought this conflict would benefit Russia in positive tourism?
Alaska is filled with Russian Orthadox Churches. Every populated Island in the Aleutian’s has beautiful churches. The Inside passage has as many possibly more. Work your way to the interior and they were all tore down. Just thought it may fit. Christ will be back.
“And every island fled away”.
Depopulation would be fine with me if we weren’t importing foreigners to replace us.
I’m all for an easier commute.
America was a much nicer place when we had 180 million people.
And like it or lump it, a continuing increase in population is an unsustainable ponzi scheme. Someday you absolutely WILL run out of resources and room, so may as well get used to stable populations and enjoy the wide open spaces when you can. I sure do.
America provides a lush environment for the out of control influence and growth of the globalist corporates…to “grow their business”…..immigration=instant customers.
It matters who the people are. “America” will never be the America you thought was nicer again – no matter the number of people. Demography is destiny and the US is on a demographic collision course that will result in a lower standard of living for everyone but the wealthiest and likely a country that divides into two or more countries.
Latinos are still having children, going to Church, and getting married. And it’s not the out-of-control birthrate some stereotype – that’s old, and if partly true, its from 30, 40 years ago.
My viewpoint is from Northern California, and I work in Latino-dominated industries. A few observations:
– most Latino men are married or in a relationship. The Latino man that wants a girlfriend, and can’t find one, is rare.
– they tilt towards traditional roles – women still allegedly cook & clean, men work a FT job, often side work, and engage in manly pursuits.
– 50% of warehouse lunchrooms have a poster or painting of Mary, the Mother of Christ, and patron Saint of Mexico.
– many of the men play around.
– a number of immigrant men carry a picture of Christ in their wallet; a percentage of these men are also perfectly open about talking about their affairs or visits to massage parlors.
– Latinos are dominating list blue collar jobs, some which pay six figures – truck driving, electricians, garbage truck drivers (union jobs)
– men, and women, will openly talk about the desire to have children.
– family is important.
– ** the values seem pre Feminist movement. **
– Latinas will drive forklifts and operate heavy machinery, but still have their feminine head scarf, earrings, and / or nails done
– the men are often OK with heavy set women (gorditas)
– honest, humble work is still appreciated.
– it is rare to hear someone complain about long work hours; most prefer overtime and working 6 days. One man worked 80 hours a week for over 6 months, 7 days a week, driving a yard goat shuttling ship containers, and just wanted one Sunday off (Sunday he only works 8 hours). Even at 60 hours per week, modest jobs are paying $70,000 + per year, plus benefits.
Aaah… my forebears trained them Latinos well. They are hard working, even the illegals, although I don’t want them here, I still must admire the grit and determination they have to make their lives better.
Many Latinos are treated like the Irish of the late 1800s. Which is really sad.
We should close the border -no more criminals- and restart the bracero program.
Now, if we could get all those Commie gringos from tearing down the Junipera Serra statues…. you know, he was Mallorquin, quite accomplished in the homeland.. That man gave up a lot to come to Alta California.. a LOT.
Read the history of the California missions, and visit them if you can. It’s amazing.
I get along great with “Latinos”. Specially when I start talking Castilian. 😉
“Gringo” is an insult.
Tsk, tsk… notice how I used it… “Commie Gringos”… pay more attention to the “Commie” part.
Similar observations here. Plenty of brown (Latinos, Indians, Arabs) and Black people still have children. It’s the White Americans who have been psy-op’d into depopulation.
Native born black Americans have negative birth rates just like native born white Americans. Hindu Indians do not have a lot of kids in America – it’s the standard 1 to 2 when they immigrate here.
Muslim Arabs breed like rodents because they often have 2 or more wives and get welfare for wives 2, 3 and 4. Pay attention the next time you see a muslim Arab family at the mall or zoo whatever. You’ll often see 1 adult male and 2 or 3 adult women and a bunch of kids. We should be enforcing polygamy laws bigtime and no immigrant should be eligible for welfare programs.
Gee that’s funny, my family is majority white and we’re bursting at the seems with kids.
So you’re saying they’re hypocrites then?
Oh, depopulation, this is such a loaded thing.
During the height of the Wuhan Flu panic… I was able to get on the 405 and drive up to Torrance… North at 9AM and back at 3PM… did 90mph all the way… and I was getting passed!
The most discombobulating part was getting passed, twice, by the CHP…. I almost pee’d when they went right by me.. they didn’t care, they were cruising well over 100.
In a way, it was liberating. No Rush Hour.
Maybe this is how the Soviet Inner Party felt being chauffeured in the inner traffic lanes of Moscow.
Well, I think I know how my wife would look at that.
“No Way, Go Away, Don’t Touch Me”

Do you get that a lot?
😁
Can’t the govt. just set up birthing vats and you add your little tadpoles and wait 9 months for pickup and then the offspring are DNA-certified and taught english in vitro and no risk of maternal death. The future is now…kinda Matrix-y but not too far-fetched.
They’re working on it, but I doubt they will employ genuine parents in either creation or raising such “children.”
Malthusian ideas of population growth were a complete lie. We now feed 5 billion people without any problem . World population will increase to 7 billion after mid century and then total population will collapse. We need more children of our own now. Putin has brought the Orthodox Church to help, and it seems to work. The USA and all our vassal states have been dechristianized. Putin had the right idea. Having a Marxist Liberation Theology Pope does not help either.
Come to my neighborhood, Sundance. You’ll be glad to see there are still places swarming with children of all ages.
what he’s trying to enlighten us to is that is the exception, not the rule. this is a very serious matter
so you don’t think there is an ebb and flow to this?
Everyone in my family under 40 has decided not to have children. Climate change and the cost being too high are given as reasons. It really is an issue.
Since 2000 the population of the US has increased by approximately 55 million. Immigration has accounted for the majority of the increase, but the U.S. is not at risk of being underpopulated.
Perhaps not, but is it at risk of being overrun by people who do not understand, care about, or share America’s historical values and corresponding understanding of our Constitution and Bill of Rights?
IMO, the anwer is yes.
