War with China

How likely is a war with the Chinese? I know they've threatened war, but how likely is one?

not very, china is a regional threat.

They have no force projection, their navy would run out of cats well before they ever cross the pacific.

Zero percent.

The Chinese know they are garbage-tier at war but Mao made a bullshit promise about reclaiming muh Taiwan by 2069. Tucking their dicks to Trump would have invalidated 47 years of Chinese foreign policy stance.

Also they have no way of striking at Americans other then nukes, whereas America could strike them however or whenever they like and could trigger famines simply by refusing to sell them feud.

China needs America more than America needs China

I figured. I've just had a growing hatred towards them recently considering they've been rattling their little chink sabres at us over Trump calling them out for fucking us.

Are they just making empty threats? I kind of want a war with them so I can legitimately fight for my country instead of fighting for the NWO in some war against irrelevant durkas.

Unlikely, we're a bit too interconnected in trade right now.

The only thing the china's have going for them is mindless numbers eager to follow every whim and command of their commie government. I merely fear our chances of tanking them given the anti-American liberal presence plaguing America and their potential to go full WW2 Jap on our asses.

Now is the best time to do it to be honest.

If you wait too long, then you have to fight China in Africa as well.

You know China is gonna do something about Taiwan eventually as well and if China successfuly conquers Taiwan, do you guys know that Japan is only 90 minutes away by plane from Taiwan?

Imagine if Taiwan becomes China's military base and they kick out all the Taiwanese and replace them with Chinese soldiers.

Explain,that idea would provide me with much comfort user

Chinese is not loyal to their government as much as Imperial Japanese soldiers to Imperial Japan.

Japan had a combination of religion and state to ensure loyalty.

China doesn't have religion like Imperial Japan and Mao isn't someone that inspires loyalty to Chinese these days.

China's massive army biggest weakness is food and water.

You know a shit ton of supplies is needed to feed that kind of army.

Can China survive when exports and imports by sea are blocked?

MacArthur was right in wanting to bomb them back in the early 50's,Truman fucking doomed us to this chink apocalypse

They're just going to buy the planet and overpopulate everyone.

>Now is the best time to do it to be honest.

This. If we successfully BTFO the living shit out of the chinks, we'd finally be free economically, and we would be one massive step closer to eradicating gommunism. Plus, the balance of power in Asia would be restored once the chinks are broken.

They're a bunch of limp-dicked wimps anyway, we'd be able to butcher them by the millions.

Good points user,and given their numerous environmental issues there's a chance that they couldn't muster up a healthy enough army anyways

Bill Clinton did worst. A lot of American technology was exported to China during Bill Clinton's era.

However, Jimmy Carter started it all by betraying Taiwan and even the Supreme Court got involved due to what Jimmy Carter did with Taiwan.

So yeah, a lot of bad decisions. We could have kept China as stupid and low tech as they were when Mao was still alive.

Instead, we gave them technology even though they were Communists.

Not likely at all, at least not against us.

Remember, Mutually Assured Economic Destruction.

Neither of us are willing to go there, knowing our officials they'd probably rather have a nuclear holocaust than that.

We are intertwined. We buy shit from them, they take that money and buy our debt at historically low interest rates. It's also how they maintain their exchange rate vs usd. If they dumped our debt, we'd be fucked because borrowing costs would skyrocket, but they'd be fucked to sell that much at once they'd have to practically give it away. That's why trump isn't fucking with China and won't. They are part of the deficit spending equation that trump needs to build the $120 billion 2000 mile wall, expand our military, trillion dollar infrastructure plan and fly to the moon now apparently.

I feel as though Nixon propelled them into their position of power as he opened trade with them. But for the most part you are 100 percent right in my book user.

Trump should honestly just build a fucking canal,it would be more beneficial to the U.S. economy and global trade,not to mention that it would keep out the beans.

zero chance.

If we are talking about debt, Japan has bought and held onto American debt far longer than China and Japan currently holds most of our debt so that means we should be doing more to take Japan's side and not China's.

Why do people like you keep ignoring the existence of Japan in your arguments?

Japan holds most of our debt now not China.

Because Japan is our ally,why would you hold money over the head of one of your "friends". Where is the sense in that? Plus they like Trump,there's no bad blood there,and if there was two more nukes would clear things right up. China on the other hand has decades of bad blood with us. I don't trust those shifty cunts,I expect some fuckery

Nixon and Kissinger thought that being on good terms with China would be much better for the US than if it had re-arisen but as an another antagonistic great power. .

>Are they just making empty threats?

That pretty much sums up their culture, everything is empty to them but they act like it's a full glass.

I really hope a war happens between chopsticks and burgers. I'm curious to see Americas missile defense system.

With 600 billion spent on the military every year, you know they have some shiny toys just waiting to be played with.

that Chairman Eleven is hiding money in Panama show the true nature of the country.

i don't really think you could call it a war, they're threatening to smash bottom of the ocean floor with their navy

They can't even create their own aircraft carrier. They one they had on trial (not the one they bought from Ukraine) was hauled back to port because it almost sank.
