And on cue: Right after our article on the 2025 Agenda, Left Wing news portal Newsroom publishes an item suggesting we abolish the word Growth. And of course, COVID, Climate Change and Overpopulation are all tied in.
I suggest you read the article for yourself. Authored by Phillip Temple, it does make some valid points for discussion, so I won’t trash it, and he deserves some views, even if you don’t entirely agree with him, or can recognise a political agenda lurking behind the environmental concerns:

And no, the article does NOT say outright that we need to start “culling the herd”, rather it tippy-toes around that topic. Temple uses the Orwellian-sounding term “DEgrowth“. While I suspect Temple has his tongue in his cheek suggesting a Cancel-Culture style ban on the word Growth we’ve seen far more absurd suggestions become reality recently.
It’s the MSM breaking the ice, so to speak.
I also suggest the reader visit this link:
(Temple is a member as he states in his article and they are clearly very influential).
I would say watch out for this subject gaining momentum.
