The Vanishing Billion: Exposing China’s Population Myth

Just yesterday, or maybe the day before, I saw this video of empty cities and neighborhoods in China, not the brand-new cities they built that nobody ever moved to but existing older cities and neighborhoods. These places looked just like the older urban neighborhoods in the videos back during the Covid-19 pandemic that we all saw on the news where Chinese authorities in full hazmat suits were dragging screaming and struggling people from their homes and stuffing them into police vans. So, something is emptying these neighborhoods, something that Chinese authorities are not discussing.
