Good, the less they know about their problems the better.
Nope.
"Then by all means explain why "conservatives" fail to reach replacement rate. Use your statistics guys."
"Already did, some time ago. What they told me was really illuminating. To move forward, tell us what you think the replacement TFR is and on what basis."
Feel free to provide that explanation first.
Oh, sorry ymix. I thought I had asked a question first. I can admit to being wrong, how about that
. Now it's your turn to admit to being wrong.
The answer is, no one knows the causal relationship between birthrates and various cultures, we only know that it is happening. Certain cultures have measurably different birthrates than others, and some are in the basement. All those happen to be leftists. We can debate the whys forever but for some reason Western conservatives have twice as many kids as white leftists.
TBH I don't care that much why, if it continues.
I wasn't wrong about that.
Yes, you sure were. Childishly and ignorantly, along with the other stuff. Time to admit to where you are wrong ymix.
You do know that new information about the past get uncovered all the time. And you should at least realize that the way people see things changes in time. WWI, which took place a mere 100 years ago, used to be a crusade for democracy and solely the Germans' fault. Today, that view is known to be mostly propaganda. So it goes.
Nice story bro. But what you said, and stuck with, was "history is never settled" which is foolish, childish and ignorantly wrong, and you can't admit it.
Oh, my!
It is funny. I really enjoy exposing the deficiencies of leftists.
I don't really expect an answer from you on that one. I just wonder.
I'd be happy to give you an answer if you followed the manners. I answered your question above, your turn now.
Maybe, just maybe, I'll allow that in some countries it's good manners to answer a host's questions before a guest gets to answer, but you're not a host here and this is an international forum, not USA. Therefore, you don't get to make the rules.
Manners aren't about forums or hosts. Hosts of forums can have the worst manners of all.
No, I said "Industrialization demanded urbanization".
Sure. Nothing to do with capitalism.
The closing of the commons was a separate event. EDIT: Leftists came pretty late in the game in Europe and even later in the rest of the world. It's true, though, that they wholeheartedly supported industrialization and urbanization and tried to square the circle by banning abortion in defiance of Papa Lenin's ideas.
Ok. But leftists are industrialists.
Most of the world is self-destructing.
Some way way way worse than others.
You mean the GOP is anti-Euro welfare state, but not pro-free market?
You and your binaries. I'll let you sort that out with Simple MInded.
See below.
I wouldn't. But at least I can put a name to your condition: "In psychology, the false-consensus effect or false-consensus bias is an attributional type of cognitive bias whereby a person tends to overestimate the extent to which his opinions, beliefs, preferences, values, and habits are normal and typical of those of others (i.e., that others also think the same way that they do)."
Great stories. However back to the battle, you have another laughable claim about me have something to do with the decimation of Europe, and of course that is laughably false.
The fate of Europe is in the hands of leftists. It is self destructing as we always prophesied.
