The people freaking out about declining birth rates and not on that white genocide hysteria seriously don't grasp what type of a population boom thay really is and just how much is redonkulously offsets any birth rate decline globally.The concern with birth rate decline is more about what happens when we have like 5 old people that can't work for every 1 young person that can, which may happen at some point. It's basically a product of the "infinite growth" mentality that most have where number must never go down. There are people who genuinely think we're at risk of extinction by not fucking enough, which is absurd, but it's usually demographic shift concerns. Population booms and busts are as natural as tree leaves but the "bust" part of that is, again, seen as an affront to human dignity. You're correct on the broad point though, that population explosion is absolutely insane, unsustainable, and will in fact correct itself in a most miserable and terrible fashion sooner or later --- He which make friends with scorpion, soon come to find out what a scorpion does - they bite people with its tail --ancient Chinese proverb ...
