asthfghlNuclear war is a moronic threat. Only a nation controlled by a someone or someones with absolutely nothing to lose and enough power/perceived authority to order an underling to cause the extinction of the human race and have that order obeyed would launch one.
Nobody puts nuclear war on the table because it's always on the table. Everything is always on the table no matter what anyone says for the simple reason that no divine intervention is going to say "no" if someone decides to do something that wasn't on the table.
China State Media Says Country Must Prepare for Nuclear War With U.S. After Biden Asks for COVID Probe
While there are many reasons to organize against China, some dipshit on state media grunting about nuclear war isn't one of them.
That said, the next few years will definitely be a test for the Biden administration, and the will of the US and its ability to build an international coalition to confront an ever-growing geopolitical challenge that is China. This is a very complicated and difficult issue because of the deep economic ties for all sides involved, and I'm not just talking about the US but also the rest of the world. We've seen China being able to influence media, Hollywood, sports, etc around the world, even in the US.
The same way China, Iran, Russia and some other are looking for ways to move away from their financial dependence on the dollar, the Western camp may need to start building a global campaign to divest from China. On the other hand, being so tightly linked economically might be the only thing preventing a major showdown right now, so I'm split on this issue. Thoughts?
