    Fun fact: the advices TFR (Total Fertility Rate) for a nation is 2.1, meaning that, on average, each couple should have 2.1 children to ensure the stability of a nation’s population. A 2-child policy means that at MOST they have 2 kids, so the average will be lower than that. That is-and this is true-NOT GOOD.

      I assume a family can legally have 3 children if they have an older child and younger twins. The twin birth rate is about 3%, higher order (triplets, quadruplets, etc.) birth rate is about 0.08% according to the CDC. This means the chance of having two single children is 97% * 97%, having twins is 3% and having a single child and twins is 97% * 3%. I didn't take into account the higher order births. So theoretically the TFR can be as high as 2 * 97% * 97% + 2 * 3% + 3 * 97% * 3% = 2.029.

      China sound antinatalist but its nothing like that ...they're just evil....antinatalism good China is very very bad
      It should be an individual choice not authoritarian police states just like America could become if trump returns (project 2025) is way worse and more evil than just never procreating ie just a personal choice

      China was poor and they faced food shortages. What do you think would happen if people continue to breed like rabbits? Perhaps you'd prefer a famine because it is less offensive to white people? There are over a billion Chinese people right now and only two countries have over 2 billion people on Earth, so what's the problem?
      The only reason people are crying about low birthrate is because government and corporations want infinite growth and that is just unsustainable. Human population is only at its highest.
      Keep pretending that white people have all of the answers.

    • @AutumnMacGregor
      @AutumnMacGregor 29 днів тому +7

      Starvation rates go down with fewer new children to feed, and parents spend more time working to "sustain" China's economic growth that's been happening the last 30(ish?) years. Short-term goals with it and wanting to keep people happy enough to not revolt were probably the priorities at the time.
      Obviously, it's not actually sustainable after a generation. But with the arguable overpopulation they started with, it probably made sense in their minds at the time.
      Also, I imagine there's some effect of not wanting to disagree with the authoritarian leader. See the quality doctors near the end of Stalin's rule.

      " being the biggest side effect"... Did you even listen to the episode and statistics? 2:1, male to female? 4 elderly dependants per 1 single male? 'ExTreMeLy EfFeCtIvE'? Not even close. Nevermind the abandoned female babies, population control itself is neo-malthusian, flirting with eco-fascist.. Failing to take into consideration how humans manipulate and engineer their environments to their needs, procreating beyond your means is a byproduct of poor levels of education. Invest in prevention, not punishment. Nor is it even that difficult to subsidize and properly educate children into adulthood when parents cooperate. The bigger problem lies with these home-schooling Christian folks who are brainwashing their children because the culture war the right started there has led to such suspicion of public education.
