Cyberspace - 05/14/08 - The number of critics who speak out about the overpopulation problem is quickly growing. The latest official to address the problem is Prince Philip in Britain, who during an interview with Sir Trevor McDonald, pin-pointed the truth behind the current rise in food prices: “Everyone thinks it’s to do with not enough food, but it’s really that demand is too great – too many people.”

The TimesOnline recently published an article including more of Prince Philip's statements, provoking an intense debate on the Internet. Corrupt was of course present to support Prince Philip and to address the problems with the way we currently deal with environmental problems. Thanks to a direct hit by our supporters, combined with independent, brave people who dare to speak the truth, the comment table currently suggests a strong consensus on the topic: we're too many people on this planet who want too much out of it.

"Xrist" from Germany was one of those who commented on the article:

Governments/societies who rely on producing over-population and subsequently dispose human matter into other societies can be passively stopped in their practice. No more money and support from western societies for those who create unnecessary human matter.

He ended his commentary by asserting that "Individuals rank below civilization," in effect saying that we as individuals don't live isolated from the effects of our destructive lifestyle. Other realists and radical environmentalists, like "R., Halifax" from Canada took it a step further and explained:

Eugenics would be an effective solution to the obvious problem of overpopulation, and would not necessarily have to entail "inhumane" actions.

In other words, overpopulation is not simply an imbalance between consumers and natural resources available, it's a question of which segment of our populations that are breeding at a high rate. Several studies confirm this thesis, among them one conducted in 2000:

The team looked at 1000s of representative teens grades 7-12 in the National Longitudinal Study of Adolescent Health and The Biosocial Factors in Adolescent Development datasets, both of which include an IQ test, and include detailed sexual experience questions ranging from hand-holding to intercourse. As with the other study there was a curvilinear relationship: students with IQs above 100 and below 70 were significantly less likely to have had intercourse than those in between. Also like the other study, they found teens with IQs ranging from 75 to 90 had the lowest probability of virginity (the authors note this is also the same IQ range where propensity towards crime peaks).

It is now clear that more and more people are becoming aware of both the overpopulation problem and the dysgenic development we're seeing as a result of this. Thanks to the action of Corrupt supporters we are able to strengthen this consensus and channelise it into raw, efficient cyberactivism that can be read and seen by millions of people worldwide.
