lmao what a fucking bastard. Taiwan literally asked for all that shit and America told them to kick rocks and buy some M1A2s from GM, in that order. To act like America is some benevolent defender of Taiwan who the primitive Taiwanese are simply too stupid to properly utilize is the most chauvinist bullshit. With allies like :amerikkka: they may as well just cut the charade and join the PRC.
Top U.S. military officials testified earlier this year that Beijing is likely to try to use force in its designs on Taiwan within the next six years. Other officials have said China’s timeline could be sooner than that.
:doubt:
The MIC is slavishly devoted to hyping up the next conflict to maximize their quarterly earnings. Meanwhile, China can afford to be patient and bide their time, to the point where any action they take with Taiwan would be successful. "Trust me, they are going to attack any second now!" fills me with extreme doubt lmao
China winning a war by just stopping production and export of finished consumer goods.

How else are they gonna justify a massively bloated budget now that the US no longer 'officially' has it's face in multiple wars?
