I think the connection they’re going for is this is the kind of hair brained distopian bullshit that eventually comes trying to achieve "infinite growth"in a finite world.
I can see China inducing comas in Uyghur women and forcing them to be incubators for the billionaires in the Chinese Capitalist Party who don’t want to deal with pregnancy.
If the Chinese do it is double plus ungood but if the west does it, it is by definition, double plus good. Thank you fellow pleb for teaching me this understanding. I’m double plus looking forward to the 2 minutes of hate this morning.
I personally use it to highlight issues on China. It seems to me that, like the Conservative/Liberal Party divide, the The West/China divide is more a “it’s good if my side does it but bad when my opponent does it”.
Use of Newspeak high lights this obserdity by replacing good with good and bad with ungood (i.e. not-good or opposite of good)

Well it’s not like socialist countries don’t need growth to achieve their goals and that growth needs new workers

“Double plus” good? What kind of nonsense is this?
It’s Newspeak from Orwell’s 1984:

It’s purposefully stupid.

It’s not good if anyone does it.
That’s my point though. It isn’t good if anyone does it. Doesn’t matter the country, party of political ideology.
Why be upset at China if we’re doing it as well? At least we have control over our laws, not China’s.
Why be upset? Wow… it’s people like you who made this timeline.
What do you mean?
