The Ted Talk video I viewed, i don't believe it was fake.
I don’t think it was fake either. HOWEVER what Gates said in that TED talk is often twisted. The context is Africa. The African culture includes a belief (or tactic) of having many children in order to counter the high child mortality that exists there. There is no question that societies that have reduced child mortality will have fewer children. So Gates supports increasing health measures in Africa. This includes vaccines among many other things. “If we do a good job (with these measures) the population would be reduced 15%. If you listen to the ENTIRE presentation this is clear as a bell. But if someone clips out the small section that we have seen all over the net with a caption “SEE !!!! He wants to kill people win vaccines !!!”. There you go …. I’m sure that is what Adams is referring to. He is still an idiot as per the mRNA vaccines tho.
“There is no question that societies that have reduced child mortality will have fewer children.”
The societies that have reduced child mortality and those that have not are different in other ways, too, such as K-selection vs r-selection. Anytime an r-selected society has received aid from the outside, they’ve become even more r-selected. That’s why western aid to Africa has resulted in an African population boom. If we help them with supposedly good-intentioned health-care, they’re not going to suddenly become K-selected and careful about breeding.
good point fren 👍
