    Except in this case there’s no murder. China is accused of reducing birth rates, not mass killing. Regardless of whether the accusation is true, any serious person can see there’s a very clear difference.

    Also, you can definitely be charged with murder if you were critical in providing the murder weapon and facilitating the murder.

      Genocide includes deliberately manipulating birth rates - killing isn’t actually required.

        Every other genocide in history has been accompanied by mass killing and mass detention and mass displacement. That’s what makes genocide the crime of crimes. It’s a horror with no parallel.

        I think there’s a serious problem if you can have a bloodless genocide by technicality.
