Not a problem unique to Russia, but they could help themselves by not getting hundreds of thousands of Russians killed in pointless wars.
It is interesting to think about how all the resources spent attacking Ukraine could’ve been spent improving life for the every day Russian.
They would probably be a lot happier.
If every country invested in the health and education of their people instead of their military there would be no need for war to begin with.
What do you think Putin wants a young population for?
I think something else is causing a depopulation problem in Russia right now.
What could that be, I wonder?.. Ah, I know, might be all those working and studying women that abandon their sacred duty to repopulate the Motherland. Definitely not the trenches in foreign countries where the men are dying…
Edit: typos.
Nah bro, it’s all the birth control chemicals women are pissing out and then that water gets recycled, drank by the men, turning them into little soyboy cucks that can’t get their little putin up unless they’re watching those androgynous kpop boy bands
That’s an interesting theory, I give you that.
I recommend everyone wears a lead helmet as much as possible to stop the 5G and radiowaves from turning your brain into mashed potatoes
Wait, lead? I thought aluminum?!?! Faaack
It’s too late for you man.
Headline isn’t wrong though. Population is definitely getting smaller, and it’s the young dying.
Depopulation was an issue a decade or more before the war. Which makes the meat grinder even harder to understand.
I’m curious how far would an authoritarian country go to improve birth rates.
Unless they go full evil, you can’t really force people to have kids when they really don’t want to.

I beg to differ, and i dont consider altering sex ed to be full evil. When people have a lot of money and power and political influence they can do some bad unethical things. Things like requiring “the correct race” to breed and “the incorrect race” to have forced military drafts and mobilizations. It’s right now easier for other immediate goals to … not go that route yet. Let the robots and automation catch up to the depopulation is my guess.
Restrictive laws to try to force the population to have more children… Where have we seen this before?
He only cares about more meat for the meat grinder.
Let’s be real, that’s the logic of most world leaders
Depopulation has been an issue in Russia for some time. At one point they created a holiday for everyone to stay home from work and fuck, though I think that was a regional thing.
I would love to halve the human population, but the economic situation is going to be horrific for decades as we figure out how to adjust.
For someone so keen on getting Russia back to the “golden age,” maybe Putin should have put more effort on listening to the people.
Nah, he should’ve just outlaw being unhappy, so that everyone would be happy
In Russia it is illegal to grow old.
That’s a big flat surface.
Don’t hunt what you can’t kill
