I would argue the right direction to go forward in is the direction where Billions of People dont starve. Innovation and sustainabillity are not mutually exclusive.
Current agricultural progress is mostly about needing as few people as possible for farming, not making enough food for everyone. It's widely known there is plenty of food, the issues are social as to why some are still hungry, not technological.
And in the end, we're on a finite planet, so whichever way you look at it, keeping increasing population numbers has to end somewhere, so the question is not does enough humans exist, but what is enough, and i think there are plenty of arguments thaht we're overpopulating the earth already.
"Overpopulation" is fascist dogshit
Can you agree we can't put an infinite amount of people on a finite planet?
So that by default the discussion is not if overpopulation can exist, but when we reached it? If you don't feel we reached it yet, i can imagine that. It's a very tough topic. But just the very basic facts of existing on a planet of finite size means that there can only be so many of us before everything collapses.
And which fascist things do you associate with the "overpopulation" topic (i imagine for example the one child policy in china?). It's not because something has been used by fascism, that it's inherently fascist.
