No one is forcing anybody.

It’s more just sharing things like birth control technology and education.

This whole discussion is actually a sort of win-win scenario, because what proves to lower birth rates more effectively than anything is improved regional health, education, and wealth, so helping along those factors is the biggest impact.

China has forcibly implemented strict birth control policy for decades. They're also forcibly sterilizing ethnic minority populations, Uyghurs in particular:

Ok yes, some people are forcing people. Clearly the person you responded to meant that they, and most people concerned about overpopulation, don't want to force anyone.

No true Scotsman is forcing any other true Scotsman.

"I think that increasing education and birth control will decrease birth rates."

"But haven't you considered that forcing people not to reproduce is horrible?"

"Who said anything about forcing? I'm not advocating for forcing anyone?"

"Hah! But in fact people are being forced!"

"Well yeah, lots of bad things are happening. That doesn't have a whole lot to do with available birth control and high income."

"No TRUE Scotsman!"
