Yuval Noah Harari, historian, futurist, and World Economic Forum (WEF) adviser declared that "we just don't need the vast majority of the population that is alive today. The modern technologies we have in the 21st century have rendered most of humanity redundant."
Harari admitted that "solving this problem will be difficult. For most common people the most important thing in their lives is family. Yet, to get down to the maximum ideal population of around 500 million persons will require a 95% reduction of the current 7.75 billion who live on the planet. Better birth control may seem like the most humane method for accomplishing the winnowing. China has already pioneered this approach, but freer societies are apt to resist the harsh measures required. More subtle measures will probably be needed. Some have suggested putting birth control drugs into the public water supply. However, this could be undermined by widely available water purification devices that people can install in their homes."
"Perhaps a more successful approach would be to mandate a universal vaccination program under the guise of a deadly pandemic," Harari suggested. "A rigorous campaign to persuade the population that their survival depends on getting the shot would probably be very effective. The recent experience with covid demonstrated that about 70% or more of the population in countries that had such campaigns got the shoots. Government access to health records could then identify those who haven't be vaccinated so more forceful methods could be used."
"Of course, using birth control methods alone would delay the attainment of the ideal population by a couple of generations," Harari acknowledged. "If faster results are needed the current population will need to be culled. In an episode of the original Star Trek TV series a world's overpopulation problem was resolved by introducing exposure to novel new diseases. Many governments around the world have active germ warfare research programs. Surely a potent enough pathogen could be released that would decimate the population. The trick would be to ensure that crucial segments of the population would have access to an antidote or cure so that only the less valuable 95% are eliminated." Modify message

You and I are expendable in their eyes.
I have a novel idea Yuval Noah Harari. How about we start population reduction with YOU? If your WEF plans are so damn good, you should prove to us useless people that offing yourself is the best thing to do for the Planet.
We all know you won’t do it because you have determined, all by your little self, that you Yuval Noah Harari and your WEF scum are more important than me.
Next WEF meeting needs NUKED. Literally!! Whoever does that does the world a favor.
If you line up people 1 meter apart in rows one meter apart, with 500 rows on either side of the highway, 7.75 billion people would stretch 7,750 kilometers.
You could drive at 62 mph for 77.5 hours before you reach the end.
I prefer the example of dividing the amount of land in Texas into 1/4 acre lots with 4-person families or groups on each lot, and that could hold all the people in the world (or at least could have when I first heard this).
268,597*640*4*4 = 2,750,433,280
Off by a factor of about 3. You’d need 12 person families on the 1/4 acre plots.
Wow! Thanks for the correction—i won’t use that anymore!
It was valid in 1955.
