It’s time to imagine a future where China does not become rich but may remain powerful — building its army and continuing to develop its domestic technological capabilities. History has shown that economic privation need not impede China’s technological achievement. During the depths of the Maoist purges, the CCP was still able to develop the atomic bomb, the hydrogen bomb, and its own intercontinental ballistic missiles.

Which is why we must go to war with China.

Lately I’ve been thinking that the US should try and throw two more wars under its belt to destabilize itself enough for all these stepped-on smaller nations might break free from thr yoke of imperialism.
