So I’m guessing war with China just got promoted up the priorities list. Yay.

Lindsey Graham did just say recently that the whole point of the war in Ukraine is to send a message to China.

It probably didn’t send the message he was thinking of

Seems like the key message is that if you’re gonna start shit then don’t fuck around at the start trying to negotiate with the west.

I wonder how long it’ll take for them to gear up for it though. They must be really scraping the barrel now, and it’ll take years to bring up production. If that’s even possible in a Gig economy.

It’s way too late at this point. Two decades of insane US foreign policy have forced China, Russia and Iran into a partnership, so instead of taking on China they’d be taking on all of Asia, and that’s just not possible.
