Person A: I support high levels of immigration.
Person B: Weren't you complaining about wages being too low? High levels of immigration directly impact wage growth in a negative way.
Person A: Yeah, but we don't have enough people to care for and replace baby boomers, so we need those immigrants.
Besides telling boomers to get rekt, what's your initial response?
Obviously, it's hypocritical to dissuade citizens from having children, and then turning around and saying we don't have enough people so we need more immigrants.
But I feel like I'm missing something here and can't quite put my finger on it.
I think this is cope. Sperm counts have dropped because men have become fat and sedentary. Both of these things are directly correlated with low fertility and T levels. We've known this for centuries, if not millennia.
It's the same reason women are having such a hard time carrying to term. They blame it on a mysterious outbreak of "PCOS", which is just a polite way of saying you're so fat your ovaries are falling apart.
If you're fit and regularly exercise and still have low sperm counts, sure, blame microplastics. But I'd bet 99% of people with idiopathic fertility problems are at least 60 pounds overweight.

Literally the next sentence lol - y’know, the same reason we don’t have double blind safety studies for vaccines
All that sentence says is “There’s supporting evidence, we swear! It’s just really hard to get!”
