How Racism Causes Low Birth Rates

Why homogeneity in a gene pool is a recipe for extinction!

Pacific Islanders, Hispanics and Black women have the highest fertility rate of any ethnicity in the United States. Most current UN data shows that the total population of the post-socialist countries in Central, Southeast and Eastern Europe, the South Caucasus and Central Asia will drop from approx. 400 million in 2023 to an expected 300 million by the end of the century currently the death rate in Europe alone is 10 million a year and all European countries are in a negative TFR or total fertility rate. meaning there are not enough children being born to replace those who have died in fact in some regions they are in the negative and this statistic is getting larger.

The opposite of natural increase is called natural decrease, where it appears more people are dying than babies being born, is the cause for a population to shrink but in actuality it is the lack of births that causes the aging of a population and conversely an older population unwilling or unable to give birth. Thus , areas with aging populations often have natural decreases. Europe and Asia have the oldest populations on the planet. The Following countries have the fastest declining populations.

While previous growth has been concentrated in China and India currently as of 2021 both are in a massive population decline, researchers expect the next wave of population growth to occur in Africa. As of 2021, for example, the average woman in Niger is having over six children in her lifetime.

At the opposite end of this spectrum are a number of countries that appear to be shrinking in population. We’ve visualized the top 20 countries by population decline.

The Top 20

The following table ranks countries by their rate of population decline using data from the United Nations.

First, it is well established that there are strong psychopathological correlates of fertility. Thus, the number of children born to individuals with schizophrenia has tended to be below the general population's average (Jablensky, 2000). Like schizophrenia, hate is a health issue. Racism is a health issue. Xenophobia is a health issue. And terror is a health issue too. So it is only a natural progression of scientific study to explore the association between sociodemographic indicators of the psychoses of racism and birth rate (i.e., live births relative to total population)In addition, a contributory factor will be the effects on sexual behavior, drug usage, alcohol and the ability to develop committed reciprocal social relationships, particularly love relationships. We see in the case of many white supremacist mass killers that they have extreme difficulties in this area.

If we leave the realm of psychology and look at it from a strictly genetic perspective we find that the smaller the gene pool there is an increased likelihood of diminishing populations in the face of habitat changes such as global warming, desertification and resistance to disease. Some alleles may provide resistance to disease or increase the chances that an organism will adapt to environmental change. Scientists recognize that we need to preserve the genetic diversity of all living things if we want to give them a chance to adapt to a changing eco-system. In nature the rule is simply adapt or die. Small populations tend to lose genetic diversity more quickly than large populations due to stochastic sampling error (i.e., genetic drift). This is because some versions of a gene can be lost due to random chance, and this is more likely to occur when populations are small. Deliberately keeping a population small like creating an ethno-state is an assurance of eventual genetic suicide or genetic disease examples of these are Hemophilia in the European royal families, Blue skinned Fugates American mountain people population in Kentucky. They are known for being carriers of a genetic trait that led to the blood disorder methemoglobinemia, causing the skin to appear blue.

Some conditions caused by recessive alleles are heart disease, deafness, stroke, cancer, depression, asthma, gout, and peptic ulcer, schizophrenia, limb malformation, autism, and blindness. Less diversity in a given gene pool equals more frequency of these issues. The problem is not an affinity to specific traits but a religious fervor regarding the bloodlines that equates to eugenics theories. Eugenics is the scientifically inaccurate theory that humans can be improved through selective breeding of populations. Eugenicists believed in a prejudiced and incorrect understanding of Mendelian genetics that claimed abstract human qualities (e.g., intelligence and social behaviors) were inherited in a simple fashion. Similarly, they believed complex diseases and disorders were solely the outcome of genetic inheritance.

The implementation of eugenics practices has caused widespread harm, particularly to populations that are being marginalized. But ironically has caused global decline to those complexionally identified as its purveyors. Starting in the late 1800s, leaders and intellectuals worldwide perpetuated eugenic beliefs and policies based on common racist and xenophobic attitudes. Many of these beliefs and policies still exist in the United States. Regarding white populations internationally, and particularly in the Western world, demographer Eric Kaufmann has stated that we are "In an era of unprecedented white demographic decline.”

Rogelio Sáenz is currently Professor in the Department of Demography at the University of University of Texas at San Antonio. Saenz posits that the United States will have progressed to overall white minority demography by 2040 London School of Economics, academics Eric Kaufmann and Matthew Goodwin wrote: Countries previously seen as having 'white' majorities that predominance is declining. In the United States, Canada and New Zealand, the 'majority-minority' point will arrive around 2040, while in western Europe it is projected to occur before the end of the century. Most demographers believe half of Europe could be a Caucasian minority by 2070 due to global warming, climate storms and events, sea rise and pandemics.
