You’re the one who connected falling birth rates to safety nets, childcare and community. I was simply providing evidence that those things don’t necessarily translate to an increase in birth rates as might be expected
Both are still socialist, so they haven’t had the same economic crisis that going from socialism to capitalism causes.
Secondly, they showed quite clearly that the erosure of safety nets and the general unaffordability of life after the introduction of capitalism is what causec birth rates to drop.
All of those countries are capitalist, though, how do they invalidate my point about post-Soviet countries?

But we know that both can be major sources of falling birthrates.
I think you accidentally fell face first into my point
We were tasked with showing how capitalism can cause birth rates to fall and find grotesque means to combat that.
And you’ve shown that how?
The incredible drop in birth rates in post-socialist countries.
What about China and Cuba?
You also haven’t drawn a link to how those drops were directly caused by capitalist policies
