The depopulation endgame is weird because it's like, what do they hope to accomplish with how random the targets can be. It just seems weird, since why would you want to risk getting rid of voters or people who are needed to partake in duties that require a lot of training.

Granted I don't deny the concept of depopulation, I just could never figure out why it would be done in such a way that seems to be designed to throw the world into chaos, because say we do get a death spiral in vain of the Bubonic Plague. The recover of such a high volume of death would be very hard to handle as we'd as a society would have to restructure our very foundation to fill in the holes of the important people lost that did important task.
