Since when was China a monolith since Mao? Ever heard of a guy named Deng? I'd suggest reading some Chinese history, and also a bit about the current plea bargain disaster in the USA, if you think all of those people actually got due process. As far as us being world police and telling other nations how to manage their affairs.. I'm against it. The Chinese government has done a lot of good and a lot of bad. Let's worry about our domestic problems first. We should continue to trade, keep the peace, and continue the amazing 30-year-run the world has had since the end of the cold war. Starting another one would cause a lot of harm. |

October, China ups the rhetoric https://www.aljazeera.com/news/2018/10/china-vows-defend-tai...
January, China ups the rhetoric more. https://www.nytimes.com/2019/01/01/world/asia/xi-jinping-tai...
Taiwan is a military ally of the USA. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Major_non-NATO_ally
And then immediately after this the govt said travel there is risky.
If China tries to invade Taiwan to take it back, the USA must go to war or the entire alliance network on top of which world peace was constructed will lose its reputation. For our grandchildrens' futures lest NATO collapse (because why contribute if the USA won't defend you), going to war with China to deny them Taiwan might be the only option.
Shit is more serious than you think. War is brewing. Right now.
