China’s population pyramid is dire. • The last large cohort of women, those aged 34 to 39, is rapidly moving into the non-reproductive age range. • There is an extreme surplus of males. More than 30 million. These are men who cannot possibly find a wife, an enormous population of incels by mathematical necessity. • Since around 2020, the number of children born has completely collapsed and shows no sign of recovery. In a few decades, China will be full of elderly people and short on workers.
