To be honest, I can't see anybody who isn't way too worried about phenotypes and skull shapes genuinely caring about birthrates, regardless of what else they write.

Wait what?

I read nothing in this site talking about that right wing nonsense

Hell, they attack the Tories for cutting spending

I'm saying that anybody who thinks "declining birth rates" merits writing articles or making social media posts, they're likely also racists.

There are pretty straightforward, non-racist, economic reasons you be concerned about it. It's an issue China is grappling with very directly, and not because they're neo-Nazis.

Aren't they increasing automation in response? China also allowed provinces with larger minority populations to have more children than predominantly Han provinces, didn't they? I think they get a pass.
