We can discuss and argue the points, and finer points, addressed in this article, but that seriously avoids the bigger issue.

Biden, “his” Administration, and the Deep State, accomplished a coup in 2020. We are no longer a viable adversary which anybody, least of all the CCP, aka Biden’s Master, considers a serious threat.

Big Pharma, Big Tech, the Oligarchs, the WHO, WEF, the U.N, and the democrats and RINO’S in Congress are the real and present danger. The vax/genocide goes on. The UN treaty is upcoming. The sham of climate change continues unabated. The chemtrails in our skies are killing life below. The Restrict Act is being pushed forward. The rollout of 5G, “smart” cities, and other attacks on freedom continue unabated. Farmers are pushed out of business and off their land. Food plants burn to the ground and gun confiscation is imminent. Z28-310 is actively tracking your “vaccination” status. Meat and poultry is contaminated with mRNA “vaccinations”, with produce right behind. Our southern border, if it can be called that with a straight face, is run by criminal cartels. Our enemies are pouring through.

This traitorous Administration, led by the Biden crime syndicate, has annihilated the last vestige of liberty.

To suggest that we could stand against the Chinese militarily is absurd. The genocide continues, and the sheeple are blissfully unaware. Big shout-out to the Main Stream Media for their help with that. Complicit bastards.

It's astonishing to hear the utter lack of sound reasoning on offer by the Taiwan hawks. Here's the truth. We gave up on Taiwan 43 years ago. We ended our mutual defense treaty and derecognized them diplomatically, in favor of diplomatic relations with China. We then spent the next 40 years building China into an unprecedented monolith that is now set to establish itself as THE global hegemon. Militarily, it's our only real rival on the planet and they field very competitive weapons systems in many categories that we simply have never faced before.

I've seen DCS simulations of battles w China over Taiwan and protecting Okinawa or Guam and the truth is that while we may beat them initially, that will require huge losses. Think dozens of naval warships, hundreds of aircraft and thousand and thousand of military personnel. And that's in the firs week. Fyi, there is a non-zero chance that it will be much worse for us if Chine decides to use one of it's 'assassin's mace' weapons against us like an EMP or killer satellites that take out ours. Who knows?

But the idea that 40 years after letting Taiwan go, now we should fight? Eff that. That's insane. There is a reason we don't have a treaty to defend Taiwan. Funnily, if you read the rationale offered for doing so above, much of it comes down to the massive egos of our Western elites who do not want to face the very real limitations on their power. They can't admit we can't win a war over Taiwan, which of course we can't over any sustained period of time. Like we could maybe get them to a standoff initially but we would eventually be pushed back. It's their backyard - it's 8000 miles away from us. Just think about the logistics of fighting the largest nation and military on earth?

Good points to ponder.

Isn't it amazing what a lack of leadership in Washington, DC has done to the fine balance of power world wide.
