Politicians and their voters in low birth-rate countries will blame everything and anything but the real issues. If you have to stay at work all day to pay for a small shitty appartment, have little to no disposable income on top of that, and are staring down the barrel of a new world war + the end of livable climates for humans, having multiple babies is not very high on the list of future plans.

But sure. Blame the queers that make up what... 5% of the population?
