Not understanding sparrows role in the game caused by the Four Pests campaign. MILLIONS DEAD.
The ecological repercussions translated into a humanitarian crisis of unprecedented proportions. The absence of sparrows, which traditionally kept locust populations in check, allowed swarms to ravage fields of grain and rice. The resulting agricultural failures, compounded by misguided policies of the Great Leap Forward, triggered a severe famine from 1958 to 1962. The death toll from starvation during this period reached 20 to 30 million people.

Because they can afford it.
If you grow your hair long but then can't find a job, then you cut your hair. If you didn't need money, you wouldn't cut your hair. You couldn't afford to be eccentric so you had to conform.

I have said all kinds of nasty things there about GropenFührer...I mean inmate #P01135809 and other than a few downvotes, nothing. Maybe it's a "no warning" kind of thing?
