@Fitzydog nah nigga, their geography is so bad its untenable, especially since they're entirely reliant on U.S trade, and like Europe their demography is awful

They're the 2nd fastest aging nation on earth

So conservative and liberal, I would define those words in politics the same as I would in cooking, or mathematics, or any other space

EU is never going to be a super power, they are lucky if they are in power in 10 years

@Nordhand exist*

there's such a thing as conservative or liberal mathematics?

@Werlf But right now, although the Silk Road thing isn't going well, they can turn on a dime and subjugate their region to bow to them economically, and then africa as well.

They haven't even tried military force yet

@Fitzydog they don't have a blue water navy to even do that

@Fitzydog the last time china tried to use their army, they were repelled by rice farmers

And their economy is so close to recession that growth will be over

Hmm, perhaps

Don't underestimate a cornered cat

@PickerLeech when you're dealing with predictability yes

@Fitzydog do you know how much fucking money they spend

They spend the equivalent of an Obama stimulus every 17 days in subsidies

china's army looks good on paper but any gear that is not used in the parades are in terrible shape

There's a small chance they could go 'Screw your optics, I'm going in!"

@Fitzydog In a direct conflict between the two, Japan would win a war against the Chinese, even without our help

<:oof:494878589406150657>

@Fitzydog Yeah, the Japanese have a good blue water navy and are building a Supercarrier

First impressions of this server:- Friendly, informative, good use of the word nigga, pretty full on politically.

I might have to take a back seat because you guys appear to have actual knowledge

Nigga, please

We don't know shit

what can China do if their oil imports are blockaded by the japanese

lol Fitz

humility, i like it

@Werlf they'll have to grind up their muslims and synthesize oil from them

We need a Haidt 'oof' reaction

Showed up in my gallery and I had to post it to see what it was

Kind of like how Nancy Pelosi passes legislation

did not disappoint thou

her problem is that she is so drunk that she cant read anything so she just signs it

I wonder if she is human or reptile on the inside

its @Den Röda Smurfen

I want to say full blown reptile
