The money quote is at the bottom of the article:

The population of sub-Saharan Africa is expected to treble in size to more than three billion people by 2100.

Can’t blame them... no way would I ever want to bring children into this wretched, perverted world.

Children are a blessing from the Lord.

When a society is full of selfish pukes who murder their blessings that’s gonna have dire consequences.

Frankly, I expect we will see a Coronavirus Baby Boom around Christmas. Lemme see...can’t go out, run out of bad Netflix shows to stream, depressed when reading the interweb...hon, what do you want to do tonight?

This tripling is actually slow compared to other areas that had population growth tied to economic and HDI growth

See the UK's population exploded from 8 million in 1800 to 30 million by 1900.

Similarly the area of "Germany"

Near tripling of population

similarly india went from 400 million in 1950 to 1.2 billion today

Sub-Saharan africa is now seeing the benefits of modern medicine and lesser children dying below 5, people living longer and economic growth. That will dip off from 2050 onwards.

It will cause pain, but this is not unusual.

France had explosive growth from 1500 to 1700 when, in 1700 it was 25% of the population of the entire European continent including European Russia. This lead to France with wars etc.

In the case of Africa there will be consequences, but these can be curtailed - I don't know how, but we know better than we did inthe 1700s

Well, the wife and I did our part. Brought 4 of the little rug rats into the world. Thank God for alcohol.

You've probably noticed that "environmentalist" liberals only complain about "overpopulation" as a problem in Western countries, even though most Western countries are at or below zero population growth. They're just fine with population explosions in non-Western Third World countries, because their real agenda isn't about "saving the environment" or "conserving natural resources", but waging war against the way of life in Western countries.

More cougars for me.

Yes. Purposefully misleading headline by the leftist BBC.

The correct one should read “’Jaw-dropping’ global crash in white and Asian children being born, African population to triple.”

Jesus Christ made an interesting prophesy where he showed that people would be getting married, but seemingly NOT having children...

Luke 17:26And as it was in the days of Noe, so shall it be also in the days of the Son of man. 27They did eat, they drank, they married wives, they were given in marriage, until the day that Noe entered into the ark, and the flood came, and destroyed them all.
