There are four ways to reduce a population: famine, disease, war, and toxicity.

These four ways to reduce a population all occur naturally, but over time people have learned to use them as weapons. Some might believe they are using them to ‘manage’ populations, but management without consent is control. In the effort to control, all tools are weapons.

  • Famine is best to reduce the population of people in a separate environment. Starving only some people in an environment invites revolution.
  • Disease is the most equitable when it is natural, but modern genetic science changes that dramatically. However, there is always the risk of uncontrollable mutations.
  • War is the best way to protect an existing power structure, by thinning the young population and reducing the threat they pose to the old guard.
  • Toxicity includes the use of drugs on a population. Toxicity is a mistake, as it is impossible to control, and should always be avoided.
