How did you know her? I knew her as terrorisor of the middle east and I’m pretty sure that’s still true.
Enjoy your Chinese hegemony. I’m sure it’ll be grand.
Don’t you guys call this ‘whataboutism’? Anyways, I’m less concerned with China than the US since China hasn’t dropped a single bomb in decades while the US drops dozens a day in the middle east.

i agree with you, but china is just as ugly
China testing missiles is really not comparable to the US bombing the Middle East dozens times a day.
im sorry but i think you are misunderstanding the pacific geopolitical play here.
i am just weary that any super power is going to fuel instability in strategic locations.
also i didnt compare it to the middle east, was just correcting the fact that china 'has not bombed in decades'
The US is the largest cause of instability in literally every region in the world. Just because you’re afraid of another country taking over the role of destabilising other countries does not mean you should defend the US doing it. It’s the same excuse Israeli’s use to genocide the Palestinians ‘because otherwise the Palestinians will genocide us back’. It’s a standpoint that’s based purely on racism, not on facts.
again, i never defended a fascist country, just tried to inform that china (another fascist country) is also dropping bombs. Im sorry you feel the need to argue a point i never mentioned.
Missile tests is usually not what someone means by ‘dropping bombs’. Every large military does missile tests. They’re harmful for the environment, can be used as a threat based on the location, but are very different from bombing actual people or important infrastructure.
