As a third party, it's kinda sad that the US is so invested in going to war and seeking even more conflict.
All this energy could be invested in cooperating and building together. Instead, it's being wasted in preparing for yet another pointless armed conflict. It's not like we don't have enough problems already.
- DontchaKnowit 3y agoI mean you can stick your fingers into all your various sensory orifices and ignore the growing turmoil between Taiwan and China all you want, but the reality is that there is nothing the US can or will do that will prevent China from doing what they please with regards to Taiwan.
- KptMarchewa 3y agoOne word: carriers.
- another2another 3y agoIf that was the case China would already have done it (like they happily gobbled up Hong Kong), but they haven't. What stayed their hand?
- DontchaKnowit 3y agoChina has legal right to hong kong, not to taiwan. Completely different situation.
- WhyNotHugo 3y agoI'm aware of the politics of China (I have acquaintances in both mainland and Taiwan). But a foreign country having internal issues isn't an excuse for the US to suddenly decide it's a good time to invade it (or to threaten to invade it and destroy its factories).
- DontchaKnowit 3y agoWhat? Since when are we doing that? And also my comment says nothing aboht that.
- Tostino 3y agoJust wondering what your thoughts are on China's self determination in deciding to invade or not? Why are you acting like the US is the one invading another nation?
- mistermann 3y agoIf you examine military actions over the last several decades, it's not that difficult to form an opinion that the United States is the most aggressive military on the global geopolitical stage. Perhaps this impression is wrong, I would be happy to read any statistics that demonstrate that this is not actually true.
- fundad 3y agoI think these posts equating decoupling and war are from CPP troll farms.
- WhyNotHugo 3y agoChina has made no threats or given any indications of planning to invade the US. Any claims of this sound like cheap propaganda.
- Tostino 3y agoI didn't say, or intend to imply they had any invasion plans of the US. I was saying that they seem to be gearing up to invade Taiwan.
- borissk 3y agoComplete nonsense. Cooperating with Putin lead to the invasion of Ukraine. Cooperating with the Chinese Communist Party can only lead to the invasion of Taiwan.
- theandrewbailey 3y ago> As a third party, it's kinda sad that China is so invested in going to war and seeking even more conflict. FTFY. China is the actively belligerent party when it comes to Taiwan. The US doesn't want to invade either one. Don't forget the ongoing Uighur genocide in Xinjiang.
