Main culprit imo: Globalization
Losing factories -> need degrees which delays childbirth
No border policies + multiculturalism -> loss of traditional cultural homogeneity
Death of mom&pop businesses -> further loss of communal attachments, further need for degrees, don't need kids to help with the business, etc
Global spread/dominance of Hollywood values -> you can guess that one
Etc.
I could write a book on it but to me it's clear that this is the main issue which keeps making things worse
Birth control.
In any case, the solution is old school patriarchal families, but Louise Perry would never accept that.
