Billionaire Elon Musk sat down for an interview with Fox News’ Tucker Carlson this week, during which he argued that abortion and birth control are fueling the population collapse.<\/p>\n

In the interview<\/a>, Musk said the human urge to procreate has been “subverted” by abortion and birth control, pointing out how in countries like Japan, deaths outnumber births.<\/p>\n

“In the past we could rely upon, you know, simple limbic system rewards in order to procreate,” he began. “But once you have birth control and abortions and whatnot, now you can still satisfy limbic instinct, but not procreate.”<\/p>\n

The ability to delay childbearing, or kill preborn children if women do get pregnant, could lead to the fall of civilization, he warned.<\/p>\n

“I’m sort of worried that hey, civilization, if we don’t make enough people to at least sustain our numbers, perhaps increase a little bit, then civilization’s going to crumble,” he said. “The old question of like, will civilization end with a bang or a whimper? Well, it’s currently trying to end with a whimper in adult diapers, which is depressing as hell.”<\/p>\n
