It's like they don't realize that turning Taiwan into a nuclear wasteland entirely defeats the purpose of taking it. You can't use it as a naval base because of the fallout, mining resources becomes hard, and the civilian population you could employ is dead, along with whatever financial gain you'd get from controlling its economy.
The guy sounds like an /r/easternsunrising or /r/aznmasculinity user who wants China to do that to stick it to the evil Americans or some shit bc he can't get laid. It's really weird how many types of incels there are on this site
I won't lie, it's disturbing to think about how much modern US foreign policy exists atop status quo assumptions stretching back to the cold war or even post-WWII. Pandora's Box will be opened if China gets bold enough to call our bluff on Taiwan and a decoupling in US foreign policy is exposed. Nobody should want that, not even our 50 cent army friend in the linked thread.
A lot of Chinese will lost their mind when they heard the word Taiwan. It is like they were brainwashed and Chinese commies implanted a chip for them to go nuts every time when they hear the word Taiwan (or Tiananmen Square or Dalai Lama).
No matter how normal they were before, they go immediately ape-shit when they hear people remind them that they have never ruled Taiwan and Taiwan is independent.
I think it will because nukes saves lives (See US justificiation for nuking Japan to avoid an amphibious invasion).
Right yes because starting a thermonuclear war now and using nuclear bombs right when America were the only country with a couple of piddly fission bombs are totally comparible

China will not forcefully take Taiwan within our lifetimes.
Do you feel better?
1 _Suprememe_ 2018-07-27
I didn't actually think it was likely, just commenting on the foreign policy domino effect that could happen if it did.
1 imissyouseattle 2018-07-27
Yeah it would be wild.
