    It really is, and it's probably the reason Xi told his troops to "be ready for war at any second"

      nah, China and the rest of the United States favorite scapegoats must always ready for war because the United States is a uncontrollable and schizophrenic monster that, every 4 years, rolls the dice on whether they elect a monster who nonetheless maintains the tenuous status quo, or insane lunatics, who often already reside at levels of power within the government, who go on public TV salivating over the idea of starting WWIII with China, Russia, Iran, etc.

        no shit, every military is technically "always ready for war", but there's a level of emphasis that you put beyond that for when you're REALLY expecting war in the immediate term, you are really libbing the minutiae here

          No need to be a fucking asshole. when the most insane country on earth ramps up aggression against any nation they have to respond in turn, but it's not like this is something new. More importantly, to the original comment that you responded to, Xi's orders in no way indicate a plan to "pre-emptively or reactively invade the US", China's strategies and responses are one million percent defensive. You don't get to call me a lib if you seriously want to argue that the PLA will swoop in will save America from itself.
