And Bobby Brainworm wants this for all of us?
These people are fascist eugenicists. They believe in a warped understanding of "survival of the fittest" where the fittest are the richest and being rich proves they're the fittest and the ones who deserve to survive. They're not trying to keep anyone else alive.
According to Project 2025, they want the US to have population of like 250k people. They have a lot of killing to do.
They do? I've not seen that. Have a link?

I think they're talking about the Georgia guidestones
Which is believed to be related to US Christian fundamentalist orgs.
Yeah, it was 500 million, worldwide. The US xtian fundies like Alex Jones went absolutely apeshit because they thought it was the (((illuminati))) and/or the (((globalists))) and/or "Satanists" that were behind it.
The black helicopter crowd/fundies are the same people that go bug-eyed over phrases like "you will own nothing and be happy" and the idea of updating the SAD to have something other than gigantic slabs of beef, so....to even have the suggestion of trying to maintain some kind of balance on the planet drives them bonkers, because they don't math very well, and their idea of progress is infinite growth. Which might make sense if they also didn't denigrate things like transhumanism and humanity setting its sights on something higher than sitting around and waiting for Jebus to come back.
Lastly, of course, one of these terrorists likely got so worked up that they blew up the Guidestones....
Project 2025 is an absolutely vile, evil plan. But don't make shit up; you're not doing anything constructive to fight them by telling outright lies.
