How many times has China threatened Canada with invasion, taking over whole country? And US? Something about infinity. You are right, but I suspect you didn't

How many times has China threatened Canada with invasion, taking over whole country? And US? Something about infinity.
You are right, but I suspect you didn't realize its in completely opposite way if I understood you correctly. China isn't enemy of most if not all western countries in a way that it doesn't feel the need to export their system elsewhere and feeling as superior uber race, unlike russia for example. China never threatened Europe, zero zilch 0 nothing, it just wants to do business with us. US on the other hand...
Maybe China is enemy of the US (not really seeing it but mkay, your fight your problem), maybe it will become enemy of US with recent potus and his a-lickers actions, but rest of the world is stopping caring about US tantrums and US-first is only about US, which is what, 4% of global population?
Those that attack are our enemies. Those that don't aren't, rest are details.

- bhouston 2y ago> Speaking as a Canadian, China is no friend of Canada: You need to put things in perspective here. I am no fan of China but we have to turn away from the US. US tariffs are expected to cut our GDP by 3% / $63B [1], enter us into a recession, and increase unemployment by 2% / 440K jobs [2].

And if Trump stays focused on annexation, it is likely to get worse if he really does want to bring us to our knees.
