    "The More Russians we kill, the safer Taiwan becomes" is far too mainstream for a take that is patently batshit insane sounding. it's even a little surprising that people can just copy+paste that take with no further elaboration and not think "wait, what the fuck am I talking about?"

      If China invaded Taiwan tomorrow the same exact people will be shamelessly saying "See I told you, Xi Jingping is an insane dictator, I've always said this" as if they didn't spend literal years operating under the assumption that Xi is rational and would be intimidated by efficient NATO imperialism.

      China doesn't invade: "This is proof U.S. hegemony keeps China in line" China does invade: "This is proof the U.S. should bomb all crazy commies to ash and that U.S. hegemony is preferable"

      No matter what happens, the result will always confirm their bias.
