John Tanton is ancient history. You can find nothing racist or fascist on the Sustainable Population Australia site or the Sustainable Australia Party site (not the same thing) or you would have gleefully brought it up. The Sustainable Australia Party actually has a whole host of environmental policies, not just on population. All that you have is a smear based on some (very old) guilt by association. In any case, having met Tanton is hardly the same thing as knowing about and agreeing with all of his views.
Are you really stupid enough to think that population can grow without limit, whether the extra people are white, black, brown, or green with purple polka dots? If not, when is enough enough? All else being equal, more people mean more pressure on the environment, and there is a limit to how far you can cut consumption before you make their lives very much worse. This has nothing to do with race hatred, although our rich and their hangers on like to pretend that it does, because they really do benefit financially from more people.
Globally, apart from aquatic species, 96% of mammal biomass is us humans and our domestic animals. The other 4% includes all the wild mammals put together. Why do you want us to completely exterminate them to make it 100%?

In Australia, we are doing a sterling job of wiping out species and generally degrading the environment. You want to make it worse.
