no matter what wishy washy sugarcoating you put on this turd, it involves a strict eugenics program.
So?
If it's necessity. What does it matter what you call it?

Maintain humanity under 500,000,000 in perpetual balance with nature.
500 Million is still a huge number, it might be too many.
Notice that it doesn't say anything like "we should depopulate" or "we should kill them".
We could send 90% of our population to space stations and outposts on other worlds you know? There's not really a set time frame here, though I think sooner is better than later.
It is assuming that we will depopulate, but this can and will happen naturally through multiple possible avenues.
I think something like the Black Plague is the most likely scenario, but we'll come back to this hot potato later on at the end of the OP.

Also anything related to this you'd like to bring up you are more than welcome.
Thanks!

It will obviously need to be forced to drop, as in the one child rule or something harsher. So yeah, no one has to die.

You think that's a politically popular stance you're taking?

And who exactly gets to be in charge of this Grand Plan?
Who gets to choose the members of the 500 million club?
If I'm wrong about that last part I'm open to evidence disputing it but you'll need a really good argument and good sources.

Hey Vanilla Ice,
Current estimate,
• 360,000 births per day
• 151,600 people die each day
NO ONE has to die?
Not even the 152K or so estimated to die today?
You think by uh... generation ZA... that birth rate will start leveling off?

I am skeptical that 500 million is still enough people to maintain a workable infrastructure on a global level, at least at our current technological level
