    EU & US vow to sit around with their thumbs up their asses, because this is the price we pay for mindlessly outsourcing our whole lives to China.

    We’ve done literally everything the Clintons warned us not to do when they authorized the mass outsourcing to China: outsourced arms manufacturing, medical supplies, drug manufacture, etc. No way to punish a belligerent empire when they can cripple you by just not making all your shit for you.

    It sure seems strange that you need an invasion force for national unity. It’s almost like Taiwan is a fully separate country.

    These two have been “condemning” each other for a decade and a half already lol

  4. Why doesn’t Taiwan just, do the same to China? Send all their planes 3/4 to China, then turn right back around.

  5. When I’m playing Civilization IV the statement I give them is “Our troops are merely passing by” .

    Someone check if Xi is going to play Zuckerberg…
