"To reduce global suffering" yes that's the eco-fascism. Population control is the eugenics equivalent of austerity. You don't get to tell anyone for any reason if they're allowed to have children or not. That's not your call, that's not anyone else's call but the parents'.

Not only is it deeply immoral, like all fascist pseudoscience, it also doesn't work. Just ask China's population control policy how that went.
