Population reduction needs to happen in tandem with guillotine day

Population reduction is already in force because guillotine day isn’t coming. The whole peril of climate change is that is renders large developed regions and concentrations of people impossible to sustain. But our inability to curb emissions isn’t a consequence of our sheer quantity of people. It is deliberately obstructed by profit-seeking actors in the highest reaches of authority.

You can kill every Gazan, bomb out every Ukrainian or Russian city, and massacre humanity along the length and breadth of the US-Mexico border. It won’t curb emissions because these aren’t the people burning all the fossil fuels.
