Disagree with B. It can change without breeding but the breeding conception is the overall fight.

Its quality over quantity, having 10 kids vs some Guatemalan's 8 is silly, that can be their strategy, but it shouldn't be white peoples' move. The answer to the "breeding" issue is to be selective about immigration, not getting into a race with the ppl you brought in

Once you abandon modern democratic pieties, it's easy to see that political power is not a majority-wins kind of game. Not even in democracies is that true, or Euro-descended majorities wouldn't be losing right now (which they are).

What you need is a few people with cultural confidence, in-group loyalty, and clear-eyed political goals. In the short term, fertility rates aren't a crisis. In the long term, they will be self-correcting, as people who have more kids are always selected for.

That *was* true, at points in history. The problem is that such selection effects should’ve already kicked in if that’s true, considering how long contraception has been available

The higher fertility of (mostly religious) conservatives is an undeniable political force, it’s why the predicted triumph of a wholly secular leftist society never quite comes about. These dynamics need more time.

I've never been convinced by this argument, although it's plausible. France was the first country to go through the demographic transition, the the TFR of the native French is still mediocre and below replacement.

Moreover, when people make that argument they're assuming that the current environment(where the "selection" supposedly occurs) will remain stable. I'm convinced in the past 2 decades alone social media has had a negative effect on the TFR, although I have no proof.
