And yet something has started happening:
Big divergence in South Korea
Effects of NorK propaganda? Men resisting it?
Women in South Korea have too much power and they know it.
Much of it is due to male female imbalance. 1.1 males per female.
The result is 0.7 birth rate
John Walker created a topic about how Korean women are not having children
I think I know the answer.
I will post in a different thread
Why are Korean men more conservative? Men want to have children plural but their wives want zero or one. And because of the gender imbalance they can’t divorce and find a new spouse easily.
Why are Korean women becoming more liberal?
The same reason women in America and Europe have become more liberal: social status, career advancement, birth control pill , morning after pill, peer pressure
why why why
I’ll tell you WHY:
Guys like Judea Pearl receive the Turing Award for writing books like “The Book of Why” which serves only to obscure the simple reality that the social sciences should have, starting in the 1960s, been funded entirely by the trickledown from prize awards for compression of comprehensive datasets.
The problem is, of course, that if such an incentives-oriented social science took root, guys like Judea Pearl would never receive Turing Awards. Israel has the highest birth rate in the developed world because of the Holocaustian industry’s propaganda and we can’t let on that this may have depressed the TFR in the rest of the developed world by replacing Christianity with Holocaustianity.
Discovering that fact in a rigorous and unbiased social science would be antisemitic!
These things have a way of working themselves out. The good news is that the spiteful mutants aren’t breeding; low fertility among certain groups is a feature, not a bug. Granted, even the right-hand side is still below 2.1 TFR but it’s in the right ballpark. The West is going through a selection event and that’s not necessarily a bad thing.

In the 90s, shortly after it looked like the only relatives my immediate family would end up with a generation hence were LDS, I ran a little study that looked for a figure of merit:
Republicans per capita * population density
This I did because I suspected there was something really nasty going on in urban areas that was distorting not just psychology. “Lot’s Wife Syndrome” I called it to one of my female LDS in-laws. I half expected Salt Lake City to come out on top.
Nope.
Orange County by a landslide.
Look at California today.
Yep…
