china by mistake, attacked itself and other countries.
No mistake.
China is teetering on the brink of economic devastation.
The thing they fear most is an uprising.
Army is not big enough to quell the street light dance party.
So, they decided to proactively kill them.
That's why they purposely released it JUST as people were leaving for Lunar New Year.
This also solves the demographic time bomb.
Kill the oldest, sickest, and the working age folk are more of a majority.
From a immoral policy standpoint, this makes perfect sense.
It provides cover, keep people inside and terrified = no riot.
Kills the oldest and the weakest, the most likely to need government assistance as they grow old = no financial cliff.
