I love most of your stuff. Your views on China are preposterous. I wouldn't want to go to war with China over Taiwan. But their wanting to take over the world and ruin everyone's lives? That's right on the money. I'd go to war with them, pre-emptively, any day of the week. Would be a whole lot easier if something had destroyed social cohesion, mutilated the emotional resilience of their health care workers, ravaged their lands with floods, gutted their reputation by baiting state media into underplaying flood deaths, crippled their energy system, and poisoned their soldiers. Now THAT would be a pre-emptive strike.

Stupid. You know, there's an argument there. Crazy? Most certainly. And the right decision. 100%.

Where did you get that idea? China doesnt have history of invading others, plundering their wealth, enslavement nor toppling govts and bombing civilians...guess who does.

If China wants to ruin our lives, they're going to have to get into line.
