I wonder...or if they were just lying like they do about everything else.
Think about it... Population numbers has been their #1 military strength/attribute/deterrent for many years.
What if it always has been a lie? Who did the counting/census? Who reported it? Are they trustworthy?
The 'lying' was especially a symptom during and especially AFTER Mao's days, when the dream was to have the most populous nation (on par with India, at least) despite the weird anomaly of the one-child policy (from1979 to 2015 - oh how wonderful /s - eugenics at its finest) - which theoretically should have reduced the population. But, weirdly, the population kept increasing.
This lady points out that on its face it's wrong. It's mathematically impossible. People were 'juicing the numbers' at all levels, mainly to qualify for the government handouts and tax-breaks, and who knows what limousine and real estate purchases.
Combine that with a population that can turn murderous over little things like, for example, one's hairstyle (See: Taiping rebellion), and you get a fabulous mix of corruption and pay-back.
China not the only one lying about population. Blue states in US are likely 1/2 of reported (2020 census) once all illegals, fake people, and COVID dead accounted for. Dems will lose 1/2 of their reps in Congress and another 1/4 once voter ID enforced. Populations in “red states” are probably also inflated in all the major cities (trafficking and crime hubs).
Suspected same reason: more gov’t money for more people.
Zigackly, fren. I am glad you made that connection.
Yes getting population numbers up for $$$ is one thing, but don't forget that the covid-19 and the vaxxes were to reduce population. The rich don't want to share the crowded cites and beaches, hiking trails. The AI and robots will replace the need for all but 500,000 people... so they also have high numbers to not scare people about population drop.
Six of one, half dozen of the other.
It benefits the leftist deep state also. If China is a big enough threat on paper then lots of money can be sequestered that can be re directed as we've seen.
