This is patently absurd. That China would have a "willingness to kill half it's population" is something that only the heavily propagandized would believe.



It's hardly a matter of "belief." They've done it before! Ever heard of the Cultural Revolution?!


You’re very uneducated if you believe that the Cultural Revolution led to anything remotely close to half the population dying.


Eh, 10 million here, 20 million there, I guess you have a point. Not such a big deal since there were 500 million more where they came from. Gotta break a few eggs, amirite.

Reconsider your ethics.


Didn't they ban having kids, leading to hundreds of millions of abortions and children being killed?

Didn't the cultural revolution lead to mass starvation?

Oh and they currently do organ harvesting on prisoners (aka people who are undesirable)
