a large proportion of Libs will absolutely support a genocidal war against China
Right up until the day comes to enlist, sure. If Iraq taught us anything, its that the Keyboard Commandos have way more fun than anyone in the shit. Probably not a coincidence that modern MIC recruitment ads showcase a pregnant woman in a cushy office chair piloting a drone, rather than some dipshit grunt marching laps around the airforce base in Okinawa.
I gotta go back to my man Richard Wolffe on the subject of "war with China" and point to the persistent increase in US/China trade straight into 2022 despite worsening diplomatic relations. There simply is no substitute for China's domestic industrial output. There's no way to achieve margin spreads that compete with Chinese imports.
That's not to say we can't pull the trigger anyway. But, much in the same way Europeans conceding to a war with Russia ran giant cracks through their own domestic economies, a war with China that halted US/Chinese trade would cripple retail sales domestically.
