Hmmm... I'm not calling for this article to be taken down or censored in any way, but i do want draw attention to some aspects of the article itself and some background on Palladium Magazine.

- I suspect many of the historical claims about population size and growth will not stand up to scrutiny. For example, to attribute such importance to demography in understanding the history of C19 France is absurdly simplistic. Natalism and criticism of the supposedly enervating influence of the Enlightenment have long been staples of the hard right in France; it doesn't follow that these points of view are of any value.

- The article does note with approval the migration of talented researchers into the USA, but it fails to note that any solution to a putative demographic crisis in the west should surely include encouraging immigration.

-That the article does not recommend such a measure beyond "brain draining" other countries is hardly surprising when we learn a little more about Palladium Magazine.

- The founding editor of the magazine is Jonah Bennett.

- Palladium Magazine is a publication of the American Governance Foundation, a thinktank funded by Peter Thiel. You can read more about his ultraright politics here:

The article fits right in with the Thiel worldview.
