IT’S GETTING SO HARD TO STAY POSITIVE

This is from Instagram

We’ve been told the myth that we’re just too many.
Too many people. Not enough food. Not enough homes. Not enough resources.

But the truth?

💥 We produce enough food for 10 billion.
💥 There are more empty homes than unhoused people.
💥 Our wardrobes could clothe 7 generations.
💥 The richest 20% consume 80% of global resources.

So no — the problem isn’t how many we are.
It’s who has access to what.
This isn’t a population crisis. It’s a distribution crisis.

the imbalance of access to resources is the consequence of colonisation of land and its people – by extracting water, food and other goods, denying the access to those resources and forbidding the people to return to their lands – and hoarding the majority in the Global North.

And the myth of overpopulation?
It’s not just wrong — it’s dangerous.

🛑 Because it asks: Who gets to live?
🛑 It blames the Global South, the poor, the racialized — while protecting the hoarding of the wealthy.
🛑 It has already led to forced sterilizations of Indigenous women.
🛑 It justifies borders, violence, and exclusion in the name of “ecology”.

This is not environmentalism.
This is ecofascism.
