The difference is now the population growth is collapsing, even after they loosened the limit to 2 kids per family, China desperately needs more babies.
Still a limit, and a low one at that, so doesn’t sound “desperate” at all.
TFA says “I uncovered evidence that the Uighurs are subject to internment in camps if they violate birth control policies, have too many children.” Presumably too many is greater than 2, but who knows.
The trend is clear, the limit was loosened late 2015, and it's not working coz people don't want/can't afford 2 kids.
China didn't care minorities having 10 kids before, why bother now?
Of course I can’t answer that question, it’s not like I’m particularly perturbed by minorities having 10 kids. (I am in general perturbed by people giving birth to many children without the means to properly support and educate them, though. This is a problem in many parts of the world.)
My point is either one child policy was a genocide against the ethnic majority (which would frankly be ridiculous) or this one is not a genocide against an ethnic minority. Pretty sure whether the two occurred at the exact same time isn’t a factor in the cited definition.
China desperately needs more female babies to be precise. The one-child policy coupled with certain cultural quirks resulted in 50-60M "excess" men, who will never find a partner, and unhealthy competition for the rest.
No it doesn't. Countries needs to stop depending on more people and pushing the demographic challenges to the next generation.
