        We’ve mostly done that already. Im not sure whats holding Xi back at this point. From where i sit he could have it if he wanted it. No one to really stop him. It might just be a good propaganda and not a military objective. After watching the war with Iran and the financial troubles in the bond market, china has never looked stronger and more intimidating.

        I think once that happens we’ll see 2 things.

        • an overwhelming infrastructure attack against the US.
        • China takes Taiwan.

      If I know anything about China; I know they take military action as a last resort. Say what you will of China, but they don’t have a massive oligarch class that is waiting for the next war to profit from.

      All they do is “trade max” into everything. There is LESS of a reason for China to look towards military action towards to Taiwan right now. If they were going to do that then there was no better time than literally the last several months with the US stuck in Iran.

      I can only see them pushing to military action if the US did something extremely aggressive directly towards them.

      The US is falling the fuck off. No one wants to be a US ally right now. Canadians fucking hate the US right now. China knows all it has to do is wait until the US inevitably pisses off Taiwan with its own selfish interests. And a natural normalization between them will occur. China is betting on Taiwanese citizens seeing as being “a part of China” again as more beneficial than not. Whatever “a part of China” ends up meaning.

      When western economies fail as their dependence on the US sucks them dry… Taiwan will look at China as a better option if it remains as resistant as it has.
