China reverses its “one child only” policy a while back, because it’s population is now shrinking (and no one wants to move to China ).

It’s latest move is to discourage all the abortions - which is ironic because China once forced abortions (and involuntary sterilization)  on women who were pregnant with a second child (you don’t want to investigate all the forced abortions; it was a true horror and crime against humanity).

https://www.newsmax.com/newsfront/china-abortion-birthrate/2022/08/16/id/1083346/

Does anyone remember the GD post from a month or two back, about China lying and under-reporting their census results?  

Gist was:  a leak revealed China is smaller than it officially claims to be.

That “leak” is questionable source but China has been shrinking since at least 2018. Problem is Japan and South Korea have been shrinking since the 1990s and the USA since 2009. They have a bigger baseline than we do or anyone else in Asia but India to work with. So far none of the policies to encourage having more kids have worked in Taiwan, South Korea, Japan or 87% of countries so far. Which is why Elon Musk made those announcements this year.

There is a reason why China has a ticking timer on when to do military things.

Unless they figure out how to automate everything.

China enacted a three child policy recently, it's everybody's patriotic duty to have kids yadda yadda.  But that's after they enacted a two child policy in 2015 that completely failed, it didn't move the needle at all.  And that was before they entered a serious economic crisis that many see as the end of the good old days for the Chinese.

Psychologically speaking, China is a mess. Some people here tell this story that they are this invincible horde of communist ubermenchen who ALWAYS follow orders. But realistically speaking, what does the average young person in China have to look forward to? A lifetime of grinding labor and/or taking care of dozens of incredibly cranky old people?

A major war would not solve these issues, they would in fact make things significantly worse. Their leadership is incredibly greedy and corrupt and yet entirely too many people seem to think that the world is theirs.

China is a mess.  They got rid of the two kid policy but nobody was having kids because it cost a shit ton of money to raise a kid in China and the people of child rearing age got used to a standard of living that they are not willing to give up.  Sound familiar?

That slow boat has already sailed. They are probably below 1.3B now, and losing something on the order 10M (and accelerating) each year. Chinese can't afford to house kids in the cities, plus couples have to take in old, sick parents and grandparents, which busts their budget and eats up available room. Let's not forget they generally killed off the women babies, so not so many baby making machines.

Best Guess is they fall bellow 1B by 2050, and maybe much sooner.

This is why I hate the Malthusian Club of Rome/WEF/technocrat globalist assholes wrecking the world now.

As nations get richer, their populations dwindle, and they put higher emphasis on environmental concerns as they develop and get richer.

A totalitarian oligarchic anti-human depopulation, de-carbonization, surveillance control system isn't needed. Lower population and lower pollution will happen all on its own by peoples' choices and preferences, as long as people have the economic and political freedom to develop prosperous societies.

But these greedy idiots think the world they rightly own won't survive unless they take control of it and destroy western civilization.

China has no social safety net…..the kids are their retirement plan, especially sons. And due to policy, they are mostly only children If war comes, every dead PLA soldier or sailor is one more couple that just lost their retirement plan. That can’t be good for the stability of the State.

Real estate speculation was supposed to replace the lots of kids retirement plan, which is why Chinese RE became by far the world's largest and fastest growing bubble, eventually propped up by ghost cities and sketchy concrete shells of buildings with no plumbing that were never intended to be occupied.  The government was satisfied with this because GDP went ballistic and they took a huge cut, both officially by leasing land and as taxes and individually as various corrupt scams and investments.  But now the bubble has popped, home prices fall every month and sales have dropped 50% YOY.  Local government income was 1/3rd or more dependent on home sales, with the collapse of sales income they're now kicking around property tax schemes, which perversely make real estate a far less attractive investment and erodes the potential property tax income.  Much of what they built in the past decade or so was a useless money sink with little or no utility value that they only hoped to sell to the bigger sucker, but they just ran out of bigger suckers.

I wrote a story recently where it was briefly mentioned that there was a rather ugly war because the Chinese government instituted a program of forced genetic modification of its newborns.

Perhaps they might start with something a little more conservative? Then work their way up to engineering a master race?

Musk knows it's THIS civilization that has to get off this rock. If we suffer a significant setback there likely won't be enough resource density to reach for the stars again, the EROEI will be lower, costs higher.

He's smart enough to see civilization is unraveling and production peaking and that if that unraveling picks up enough speed all his dreams will die.
