@KenneticEnergy I don't think so.

There are talks that china can turn the ports they gain into military ports

I mean, there are military bases in Colombia, and they talk spanish

but the fact is, only US have that large a navy to station all over the world

Okay I guess we have very different definitions of colonization then

china can't even get their first carrier running

they weren't colonized by Americans

Check out Chinas Belt & Road initiative

you are seriously over estimating china's strength

China sucks militarily

They'll give the US a bloody nose but we'll ass rape them

without a navy, even if they have army stationed, its just sitting ducks, why would they do that?

@Rhunespire Well didn't know that one

So if they suck militarily then what is stopping war?

@felldie1496 know what one?

the fact that war profits nobody

@Rhunespire That china sucks militarily

the fact is , a lot of stuff in china is US investment

@Rhunespire hi x

would you go blow up your own stuff?

Why would anybody do that?

They have a brown water navy with no blue water naval experience

You know what's stopping war? The fact that if we go to WWIII everything goes to shit

The DF21 everyone talks about is untested and unproven to do what they say it can

Human race goes to shit

@Victortze so what should happen then? In your opinion

War happens when someone have something to gain

@KenneticEnergy US have 1 enemy: US

Nothing will happen until US's internal problem drag it into the mud

China will start a war when there economy tanks and their people start starving

@Victortze yeah and we’re trying to hold onto the last bits of freedom we have left

@Victortze Granted that as of now China's strength is over estimated quite often but China seems to be moving along a long term plan to actually have those abilities. Taking into account demographic advantage they will be able to creak out for another decade and several other technological and socioeconomic advantages some of the fears are quite legitimate.

They'll the blame the US tariffs

In fact, if we get to a nuclear war, it's possible that every living thing on earth (except tardigrades) will die.

and start a war ease that how? its not WW2 europe anymore, there's nobody to invade to ease the economy pressure

Nuclear war is unlikely

I still think a pathogen will take us out

People underestimate ebola

@KungFuPandey US likes to overstate it so the military can buy cool new toys, and the others play along because they want a opposition to US.

@Rhunespire Yeah i'm just stating that WWIV will never happen, because there would be no humans to fight.

There are scary strains of flu popping up in China, but I guess we shouldn’t be worried about that
