The thing is, we might still be able to turn things around relatively humanely - but it relies on most of the world adopting liberal policies such as allowing women the right to control their own lives and their reproduction, as well as humane distribution of wealth, and humane working conditions that will make the resulting demographic shift (older workers, at least until AI puts us all out of a job) easier to bear.

Gee, liberal policies - one might think a liberal discussion board would be very much in support of those.
