"Start procreating or start panicking." That's the core message of a once-fringe ideology now pushing its way into the mainstream called pronatalism. Elon Musk is one of the movement's loudest voices, boasting 14 kids and calling population decline humanity's biggest threat. The pronatalist movement is largely led by white conservatives and tech elites. Critics say it's not just about babies it's about power, and control. Dr. Karen Guzzo is a sociologist, fertility expert and the director of the Carolina Population Center. She argues that solving the "birth rate crisis" isn't about pushing people to have more kids, it's about building a society where they actually can.
