Fuck the ccp and Winnie the poo
Is this reactionary?
By definition it's the opposite.
I’m not so sure
Did they ask for a restoration of the KMT government or the Manchu dynasty? No, they just criticized the current existing government.
The Rise of ‘Red Scare’ Policy
I agree things like TikTok and Farmland are overblown issues that wouldn’t be an issue if congress wasn’t so impotent when it comes to legislating laws that benefit actual Americans over American corporations, but this article entirely ignores China’s excessively aggressive maritime policy, be it their overfishing or their increasing militarism in the South China Sea. That’s the stuff that starts wars, not tariffs and business bans.
I'm just pro Chang Kai-Shek.
Yep.
Nope. Long standing hate. Fuck the CCP and Xi jingpoo
What did they do to you?
It's what they do to the citizens of china, uyghur or not, and the surrounding countries, instigating shit it internatinal waters, etc. Evil doesn't have to do anything to me personally for me to hate it.
And the Gaza Palestinians? So, America’s not worthy of your hate? Hypocrisy!
Go have fun putting words in someone else's mouth
That’s why it’s a question. Is America aiding Israel in a genocide in Gaza?
“Prepare for a war that we are gonna start”
Well one wouldn't want to start a war and then prepare. /S
Duh.
Durrrrrrrr
“…cause we’re sure as shit going to continue to provoke them”
So the CCP had the largest navy in the world (number of ships) while at the same time it is also the least experienced. It only became a green water navy in the last 20 or 30 years. It basically has no institutional knowledge. The current top level commanders were the very first generation of sailors to do anything besides patrol the shore.
Additionally they lack regional peer competition. This could make them seem more effective than they are. Both in the mindes of outside analysts and internally. Ultimately this makes it much harder to estimate the true effectiveness of their Navy. No one knows whether or not to over or under estimate their naval power.
They have more than billion people to grind through. If they wanted, they could win a naval conflict on foot. Not many would last to enjoy the victory, but still...
Yo leave is alone and fix your fucking economy.
Fuck off, China!
