65G and Future Urban Warfare

Negative. A zero growth population is a balance of births and deaths.

Of course it is. I didn't say otherwise.

We no longer have a balance of deaths because people are living way longer than they normally did.

This is all from the work of demographers, not my claims.

They are talking about demographic winter in the future, where your conclusion finally happens, but global population growth rates have been driven by longer life expectancies and a lot less births than normal.

That birth rates have decreased doesn't change the fact that longer life expectancy does not cause population growth. Only births do (i.e., adding more people to the existing population).

I would strongly suggest anyone interested in learning more about it to watch this video:

I can't recommend it. Far too long and tedious for the few bits of worthwhile information.

Plus, it's more like a propaganda film, clearly intended to appeal to emotion, with the somber mood music and scenes of children vanishing into thin air.
