    If some conservatives absolutely insist on lowering their own population, who am I to stop them? Actually, the louder I beg them to stop and follow the science, the more aggressively they seem to be killing themselves…

    Guys! Stop! Don’t do it!!!

      Two downsides are that they take healthcare resources to be treated for their own stupidity, and if they have kids I feel sorry for the kids.

      Killing people off in conservative areas just further entrenches conservatism there. It’s a lot easier to get 10,000 people to do what you want than it is to get 100,000.

      And even if Wyoming or South Dakota only have a few thousand people they still get a representative, two senators, and three electoral college votes.
