    To be fair if that's the logic then the Communist Party should just close up shop and a pull a 1989, otherwise we're eventually looking at nuclear holocaust

    Regardless of the threat China will be faced with the choice to stand up to the US or not

    And they don't have a century to ponder this eventuality, climate change and US imperial collapse is ticking on and the timetable is shorter then any of us realize

      The point is that the longer China can avoid confrontation the better position it will be in. Even a few years will make a huge difference.
