I fukn knew I'd find reference to Malthus in this before I even finished reading the second paragraph lol

Is Malthus problematic or? I'm not familiar actually

I don't know about the actual dude, but he is often cited next to reactionary takes--like how there isn't enough food for all of us [so we should let the poor die], general pearl clutching over high birthrates [in the wrong ethnic groups], and just generally very selectively utilitarian ways of viewing [certain kinds of] people.

That said, after clicking around some more on OP's link, I'm not really sure what the author is about at all.
