    lol, the only “good reason to refrain from military aggression” is, “Eh, why bother? sit-back-and-enjoy”

    Yeah, the real lessons here are that the US is a paper tiger, and that China will never surpass them in copium production.

    I love how it just assumes that we need to fuck over China. USians like to believe they are not propagandized but also uncritically consume this slop.

      It really is just so fucked how every single bit of media in the west talks about the importance of attacking China, even stuff claiming to be “against” it usually just argues because it would be a military disaster. At no point is it ever examined if China is actually a threat or why we would need to do something about them anyway. And if you point that out to people, they act like you’re crazy (right before they say something really fucking racist).

    I mean the author is a Malkasian; those are the deranged vampire clan from vampire the masquerade, right? Yeah him coming to this conclusion is entirely unsurprising.

    The only thing I could gather from the US “tactical success” is that China should avoid war because the US will bomb their civilians indiscriminately and try to kill as many innocent people as possible. Which is like, yeah, they know that, they have eyes, they’ve seen what the US does to other countries when they attack them, they didn’t need the latest bit of US aggression to tell them that.

    Military aggression from China? When have they done that since invading Vietnam? The South China Sea spats with Vietnam and Philippines, I guess?

    I wouldn’t really call it military aggression while the US is doing their thing.

        No pew pew on the border with India, only sticks-and-stones fighting.
