Destination: " War " , should be there in the evening Hours...
Just checked /r/worldnews and it appears that redditors acknowledge one side of this conflict is provoking this war to distract from political and economic problems that will lead to its collapse in the near future. Oh btw that side is China
If they actually do shoot her down, I'm going to be so mad that the end of the world is about Nancy Pelosi
Pelosi, Directed by Christopher Nolan, filmed in one billion millimeter IMAX
well, China has a no-first-strike policy. If we have nuclear war it will be from stupid American politicians rampaging like the boar demon from Mononoke.
If I were China, I’d see Pelosi coming to Taiwan (part of China) with her protection fleet of aircraft as a border breach, therefore not quite a first strike.
First-strike refers to first use of nuclear weapons. Every nuclear nation on Earth has a no-first-strike policy except the USA
I think Israel also doesn't have the policy, partly because it denies having nukes.
Referring to nukes specifically. They might blow her out of the sky with conventional weapons but they won't be first to use nukes
Good question actually. The US is barely handling the Ukraine war, why on earth would they escalate tensions with an even stronger country. Seems incredibly reckless.
For a party that's supposed to be the reasonable stewards of capitalism, the Democrats do not seem to have their shit together at all.
I mean how many times have you watched some viral video about an elder white person raging out and trying to attack some one.
The brain at that age doesn't have many controls left

:whywhywhywhywhy: comes to mind
My wife said you just have to imagine the country like Regina from Mean Girls and then it all makes sense.
Fuck this. There is no excuse for this bullshit. The dems must be pretty confident in their base rabid hatred for China to pull this kind of stunt. Every move the US makes seems like a desperate attempt to maintain power, using the threat of mutual nuclear annihilation as a hail mary. The fact they have become comfortable routinely playing chicken with all of humanity should be horrifying to everyone, yet liberals will celebrate this.
The only explanation I can think of besides that they are entirely selfish psychopaths and narcissists at the end of their lives is that they also know there is only like 10 years left before climate change kills off most of humanity anyway, so they really just don't give a shit.
They follow the religion of America and honestly believe that we are divinely protected against anything we do
Holy shit the horseback riding goes pretty hard. I am now not surprised that many in the military were reluctant to stop using them, there's a certain energy they generate that's infectious.
why do americans call it horseback riding? what other part of the horse do they ride? :soviet-bashful:
I'm not american they might call it something else, I only know the British colloquialism. I guess we ride bicycles?
my entire political ideology will be whatever that will bring about gas mask wearing mounted riflemen
Lol I wonder if China really had a machine with a bunch of blinking buttons like a sci-fi movie
There's a slightly longer clip without the synth music. It's from some documentary movie called Trinity and Beyond, which is up on youtube in somewhat shitty quality. Here's a 1080p torrent I found from a quick search which seems to have seeds.
edit: actually, the parts in the twitter clip after the gas-mask cavalry don't seem to be from Trinity and Beyond, I guess those have been edited in from some other source
Does anyone at least know what the song is?
红太阳照边疆 (red sun shining border)
Haven't found the synth version yet. But checking out some other versions

Edit damn , Chairman Mao's , give me more of your Radiance
Xi pls liberate us. I don't feel like going to work on Monday
Death to America
I literally haven’t seen an article that actually says why she’s going
It just kinda became a thing out of nowhere, and now here we are.
No, they begged her not to come. Our own neocon think tanks in Taiwan all said this is the worst idea and will force China to pursue reunification as a best case scenario.
I would imagine around the same amount of people in Taiwan know who she is as Americans know who Lì Zhànshū is
The only thing I can think of is that they're doing it to show the republicans that they're "tough on China". It wouldn't suprise me one bit if Pelosi, Biden and various other dried-out old democrat ghouls are so demented they still think they can gain votes from the right by pulling shit like this.
There's a very conspicuous military flight heading to Honolulu from Taiwan.
It may be that she's changing planes, or it may be that they're flying someone from Taiwan to see her there? Could also just be that it's off during maintenance or whatever but yeah. Hard to say.
I double and triple checked whether I was on any lists of likely nuke targets and then checked nearby targets for damage radius. I'm probably ok but it'll be a bit hairy and I don't know how safe from radiation I might be afterwards depending on wind directions.
Totally serious. Not that it'll do me any good knowing this.. Maybe I'll be a bit calmer about it. Absolutely no idea what I'd do in the aftermath, getting anywhere would be a nightmare of navigating potential targets and radiation. Maybe try and run to ireland but getting there would be very hard.
Isn't this if you assume that all missiles/rockets make it to target and detonate?
There is nowhere in the US that would be safe from fallout. Bases on the west coast, nuke silos all over the middle, major cities in the northeast.
Probably best bet would be to head as far north or south as you can depending where you're starting
Fallout if usually a major issue for just 48 hours iirc, although we don't know how that would change in the case of a multiple-strike event
But yeah if you can get underground and stay there for a bit you should be mostly ok
Just pissing and shitting in a 10x8' crawlspace for 5 days while my skin melts off
Would Alaska or Hawai'i be safer? Then again, might as well just flee to Canada if you have access to Alaska.
No way, AK has nuke silos, plus a ton of interceptors and long range missiles. HI has "defensive" missiles and likely nuke subs and massive military presence, like the largest reserve fleet. HI would be fucked, again, in a conflict with the east.
She's actually visiting several Asian countries and the island is a possible stop. Neither the white house nor her office has confirmed that she's actually visiting Taiwan. She could just end up doing a tour of Japan, Singapore, etc and then fuck off back home.

exactly this happens, but then US media does a victory lap anyway and accuses China of blinking first
TBH, I've stopped giving a shit about US media. They can blast their crap around in their echo chambers for the millionth time if they so choose, I'm satisfied so long as this episode concludes without a military incident.
It's gotta be the second, right? Like surely Taiwan at least is smart enough not to pull this stunt.
I dunno, these are US airforce planes so they be doing whatever they want. I wouldn't be surprised if some semiconductor baron that wanted to meet her in person was on one. Zero certainties though.
looking at the other tracker it seems to be landed in Honolulu for a bit?
so how will that work will it be the same flightnumber ? spar19 ?
How many people do you think would enlist in the military to avenge Nancy Pelosi?
And there's no way those 60-year-old blue checks will pass the fitness requirements
Maybe if they made everyone in the military watch MSNBC they would care, but showing them that slop would only make them angry at this point.
It's so funny to me that the military plays Fox News in their mess halls, regardless of who is president. Obama and Biden just letting the soldiers they command get fed right-wing propaganda while they eat their burgers.
The military is constantly watching propaganda that tells them their commander in chief is a traitor lol
the right will get in gear for the war they've been clamoring for with China. and the libs will get in gear because it's over a dem.
You'd think some libs may take pause and think for a second, "why am I on the same side as the chuds?" but :yea:
the libs are always overjoyed at right unity. "bipartisan coalition"
What should I do with what may be my last day?
I think I'll take a nap, wake me if we're all dead
Landlord wants me to pay rent today, they can go fuck themselves :xi-plz:
I’m traveling tomorrow and my landlord only takes cashier checks
Uncritical support to comrade Taylor Swift in her heroic struggle to protect the People's Republic of China from yankee imperialist warmongers.
Yeah by the time I looked at it it said data not available lol
my evening Hours , timezones hurt my brain.... its 14:40 for me currently ....
