War is unlikely because of mutual destruction guaranteed by Nuclear weapons. What's most likely is information erosion, brain washing, espionage and political upheaval caused by CCP actors. Be careful what you write on the internet. You'll see the full wrath of CCP cancel culture like you've never seen before in the year 2050. Also, keep an eye on whichever country you belong to and how its government is not influenced by CCP. It might be a little too late for Australia [1].

War is almost guaranteed at this stage.

  Why?

    Because the US won’t want to relinquish their global hegemony and PRC has been slowly preparing for the moment when they can make their move.

      Both have nuclear weapons. If the war is going to happen it will happen somewhere close to China, because the reverse isn't possible. But if you are talking about winning a war that is close to China, against China, you are not in the right mind. Truth to be told, not even US can afford to total war against China on its own. You need a WW3 to drag everyone into the battle.

  Interesting. China was just doing its own thing in the mid-1900's. Sure it was no paradise to live in, but they were pretty much irrelevant on the world stage. Then all these multinational corporations come along, pump steroids into the Chinese economy (and by extension, the CCP) while fattening their own pockets, and after a few decades, play dumb and whine about how China hasn't been playing fair. Am I wrong on any of this or am I going to get a bunch of anonymous downvotes? Now some basement-dwelling armchair generals want to go to war with the consequences of our own making. If humanity ends in a cloud of fallout, it'll be hard to say we didn't deserve it.

    Pretty spot on. Edit: if your last paragraph was relating to me I never advocated for it. Why is it you can’t say how you see things panning out without people thinking that you want it to be that way? I noticed it a lot on social media these days. For example I dislike Trump but predicted his election and was crucified for it. I was right.

      I don't think we're going to go to war -- at least not in any conventional sense. But if I'm wrong, it would prove that we're little more than baboons who happen to be able to understand some advanced math.

By 2050 they'll have force sterilized your children, and by 2100 it will be as if your entire family tree never existed. The Uighurs are just a trial run.
