It's honestly really funny how transparent our attempts to goad China into a war are. Nothing short of a suicidal false flag would get them to make a military move.

[-] yogthos@lemmygrad.ml 41 points 3 weeks ago

Exactly, China is winning by default right now and they have no reason to escalate.

Lol isn't there a faction in the Republicans that basically wants the opposite (getting Russia to help them against China)?

[-] yogthos@lemmygrad.ml 34 points 3 weeks ago

lol yeah, funny part is that before the war US likely could've convinced Russia to join the western camp too if they just gave Russia a bit of respect

if they just gave Russia a bit of respect

Too racist for that, fortunately

I don't think so. The closest think I have heard is the liberal mythology that some Republicans are Russian agents.

There is the Tucker Carlson camp which I'd not consider to be completely pro Russian, but it's certainly friendlier to them and rabidly anti china

John Mearsheimer comes to mind

"...expected to attempt to pressure Beijing..."

...with what, mate?

[-] yogthos@lemmygrad.ml 12 points 3 weeks ago

lol right, China holds all the cards because it's where actual material things that burgerlanders need are produced

Kissinger, but he's dead now.

'Hey China, wanna nuke your relation for a conflict in which we are in over our head?'

'Nah'

'Wait what?'

Reminds me of Kim il Sung that said, “It’s better to close up like a clam until the war is over.”, very wise words to live by.
