I beg to differ. War doesn't strictly apply to military operations.
well yeah, it actually kind of does. war = well.....war. if you want to say we are in a "trade war" or we are fighting economic warfare with them- sure. an actual war? nah. it's not even a proxy war like we have been fighting with Russia via Ukraine.
There is zero evidence that China desires a direct conflict with guns blazing with the United States. They are
way too smart for that shit. They are happy to sit back and let us fuck shit up all around the world and overextend ourselves and bankrupt ourselves in the process of running the empire, meanwhile stealing all of our IP/tech, taking our manufacturing base and sell absolute cheap crap back to us and get rich off us.
And I'd like to remind you and everyone here that the US has just under 800 (give or take) foreign military bases around the world with just under 200 of those encircling China, meanwhile China has....wait for it....
one foreign military base- in Africa
. I'd like to remind everyone here that the US has a history of doing all kinds of fuckery and shenanigans from funding fake protests and paying off media & politicians to destabilize a country to overthrowing governments and assassinations of leaders they do not like when they want to influence foreign nations- meanwhile when China tries to curry influence in foreign nations by wait for it.....building roads, bridges, and ports for foreign nations. I'd like to remind everyone here that the United States has bombed, invaded and overthrown governments all around the world for the last 80 years- China...ehhh....not so much.
I mean shit- just look at the last 20ish years- China illegally invaded Afghanistan and Iraq and occupied both countries for decades, China bombed the shit out of Libya and overthrew that nation and turned it into a failed state, China used it's intelligence agencies and clandestine special operations services to overthrow Syria and destroy and destabilize that country and China currently occupies a third of Syria as we speak....oh wait FUCK all that is the good ol' USA. My bad.
China have every reason to fear an actual war with military strikes from us, we kind of have a really solid track record of popping off at the hip and going to war and bombing and invading foreign countries and shit. No one has both directly and indirectly went all across the world on a rampage fucking shit up and destroying nations and killing people quite like the United States. It's pretty fucking remarkable actually. Have to hand it to us. The military industrial complex in the US is pretty fucking gnarly. We are the World War Champs for a reason.
