It’s weird, but everything is well researched, verified, and cited.

If you want I can give you the Reddit user who originally posted the site and you can ask him if he is David

Anti China?

You mean critical of the government. They also been critical of the UK, US, and Korean governments. Not to mention why they are most critical of isn’t the traditional reasons, but by the fact they need to ramp up social spending but hasn’t

Also it seems they are cynical of the numbers coming out, which is a fair point considering the Chinese researchers has a history of overcounting, inflating numbers, and sugarcoating CCP policies

At worse you can say they are anti CCP like other western sources like you said, but at best they just critical of any government who doesn’t increase social spending

China is very active player and driving up events, especially as they may be working with nazi wannabes in the German government

Jokes on the CCP, who is going to spend the cash to raise them?

Not to mention we saw this play out in Soviet Romania, and it was a shit show for that government in terms of political stability

Hard disagree; when I read it, all the links are working, seem to verify what the writer is saying, and all information can be collaborated with other sources

Edit: I seen this style before, Axios and Morning Brew does something similar

Why not, as long it means being against austerity?

Hell, the article is critical for the CCP not spending more on social services.

It’s on their weird about page

“The crazy thing is, despite all this, people still want kids. The economy and social challenges—are the real culprits for the drop in birth rates, not a shift in attitudes. Countries with austerity measures, like the US, UK, Germany, Italy, and Greece, have lower birth rates than Denmark and France.”

It seems to me that they are using population decline to go after austerity and NIMBYs

I don’t know, I found this on Reddit when the guy came after Michael Deacon for blaming for millennials and pleasantly surprised it was for increasing social spending and building homes rather than some right wing nonsense.
