China’s ‘Last Generation’: 85% Not Marrying, 60% Not Procreating

[Your Old Comrade]

The young people in China are increasingly defying the Communist Party. Among those born in the late 90s, half have already decided not to have children. In those born after the year 2000, there could be an astonishing 60-70% choosing not to have children. Among couples who registered their marriages last year, 40% do not intend to have children. As for the newborns last year, 40-45% were the second child of couples who already had one. As the post-2000 and post-2010 generations come of age, the low fertility level will be more pronounced, and the fertility rate could plummet.

Japan, Korea, Russia and several Western countries are not far behind in these trends either. For that matter, even Brazil, parts of India and putatively hardline Islamic nations like Iran and Saudi Arabia have below replacement birth rates too.

China's acute demographic crisis keeps getting worse, with its largest population decline in over 60 years. So in this video, we explain the data behind the crisis, why it's not improving and whether Xi Jinping and the CCP can do anything about it.

I don't even blame them.

But re my post above: there is no room for schadenfreude on our part, as many of these trends are making headway in much of the West (and indeed elsewhere) too.
