People are saying that an ideal population size for the human race would be 4 billion people (around that of 50 years ago). And then using that as a means to promote conspiracies of population thinning.

Where are all the bodies going?

Where are we going to bury all those people when they die of natural causes?

And you would have to be pretty fucking dense to interpret someone saying, "the ideal human population level is 4 billion" to mean "let's kill people until we get down to that number."
