After reading a rather interesting article online about theories of population numbers and cloning, I noticed a number of my previous articles and ideas stray into this territory. Providing some extra pieces of information to add to the overall questions I have, rather than offer any answers.

Cloning – Mentioning twins and identical strangers, made me think of my articles Films, Real Life Twisted or just Fantasy? and Seeing Double, where perhaps there are switches made or doppelgangers utilised to pull off some deception. We know people hire body doubles and lookalikes for films and appearances in the world of entertainment – it’s just maybe the stage and screen for that is a bit bigger than people realised. With all of those Characters of Illusion deliberately placed and made to look like someone else, so you aren’t really sure what you can trust anymore, even when you see it with your own eyes as the illusion is no longer just behind a screen. We now know it can walk and walk and be seen with your own eyes, and if you trust those all of the time, then it’s an easy trick to pull off.

Mysterious population boom / adoption boom (1980’s-2000’s) – there are some startling numbers in the strange talk of Chinese towns and the cities that were built and never inhabited – tying in perhaps to my thoughts of Ghost Cities. And maybe they weren’t just there as a movie set or a forethought after all. Maybe they have already been used and are waiting for the next group or time. The add adoption stats from Kazakhstan around the same time also looking a bit odd, making me think of A Train of Thought, with their own style of ‘orphan trains’ happening, but a century after the first lot, almost as if the previous batch has reached its expiry or is now Past Its Best and ‘new stock’ was required.

But if the stats of adoptions and various ‘movements’ of children are true, there really is something strange going on, with a jump in numbers that seems to have no logical explanation. And now we have birth rates falling dramatically in various countries and certain demographics, swinging wildly from massive growth, to massive drop. For that there are indeed some ideas and speculations. With tweaks in society to engineer reasons or excuses why so many children might be parentless and require mass programs to address that. I suspect all manner of ‘people relocations and replacements’ have already happened we aren’t aware of in particular areas of the world, with it then being used for purpose and rewritten as necessary.

It was pointed out there seems to be a stark drop in birth and maternity hospitals in various countries, and with people asking questions like “Are real people disappearing?”, it makes me think there something to notice, although, we are still using stats and figures provided by the entity that lies a lot, the state. So, it will always have to be taken with a pinch of salt, or with variables added in to account for the errors, omissions, changes in data etc, some of those ideas and thoughts of populations already discussed in Downsizing and A Numbers Game. With a look at where everyone ended up in the The Missing Dead, also hinting at there being something afoot with the official records, and what we see versus what we think we know and are told, doesn’t quite add up. Which does happen a lot these days, and maybe always did but we just weren’t paying attention, but now we are, Perhaps we should try and work out what it is we are actually seeing…
