We had heard rumbles about the birth dearth in Red China. But nothing like this:
...Yesterday I came across a Web site called "Lei's Real Talk". She's a Chinese lady living in the USA who analyzes events and developments in China, and has developed quite a large following. I know nothing more about her than what she says on her Web site, but she presents carefully thought out and cogent analysis of China's real population in the video clip below. The kicker?
She thinks China's population might already be a third to a half less than what it officially claims....
You Tube at the link.
This makes the China Hawks' (Bannon, anyone?) position far less compelling, to say the least.
Right, thinks. She doesn’t know.
ReplyDeleteMy friend, a Latin mass Catholic discussed this very issue many months ago, and he pointed out one thing about China. In China, people control nothing except their fertility. The communist can’t make them breed.
ReplyDeleteIt’s like the only way they can protest.

Dad, we talked about this already. It’s not really communism, and the Chinese folks have more freedom as your friend thinks.

Why would anybody want to bring children into the world of communism, especially Chinese communism?
ReplyDeleteIt’s a very evil country under communism.
In a post-Christian world, have we returned to the darkness of pagan days?
Think about it, It’s an unsettling echo of the despair that infected the USSR in the late Soviet era.
