With exceptions in cases like when a couple loses a child

Edit: in a scenario where everything is good. No wars, no famine.

    Annnnd I said it wasn’t. Didn’t I? Didn’t support it.

    The point of this is, I’m not trying to control women just because I asked a question about the two child policy. Didn’t support it, just asked an opinion. How come you’re sooooo intent on twisting my words and finding Ill in everything I say?

      I just find the question distasteful. I didn’t say you’re trying to control women, the question is fundamentally about controlling women.

        Why?

        Didn’t we just argue about neutering men?

        If it’s about controlling anyone, it’s about controlling everyone. Which means it’s not about controlling women. Stop using that sentence like a buzzword. That’s pretty disgusting.

        And btw, a question can have multiple answers. You ask questions because you don’t know some answers. If there was an answer to this question other than those I know, I might learn it by asking here. It can trigger discussions from which I might learn more on the topic. It is possible that there is an answer which is actually good and I don’t know about it. THAT’S why you ask questions.

          There are no good answers when it comes to population control in this way. It will always involve harming people.

            How could I be sure? Even of there weren’t I might end up learning something interesting. (For example, someone else commented about ‘ghost people’ about China) What you’re saying sums down to ‘don’t ask questions related to controversial topics’. We always need to discuss them.

              You’re gonna have to live with the fact that people will form opinions about you based on your actions.

              Pondering how to control humans reproductive rights is certainly something you’re allowed to do and the rest of us are allowed to ask why.

                Oh? But I’m not going to do that tho. You can, if you want to.

                My question was (how many times have I said this?) 'Do you think Strict two child policy should be a thing? ’ which is a different question from ‘how do I implement strict 2 child policy?’

                Twisting People’s words is pretty lame yk? You better stop that, for your own sake.

                You’re gonna have to live with the fact that people will form opinions about you based on your actions

                Ok? That still doesn’t explain why you want to promote a very bad incorrect suspicion based on a normal question.
