I think the part of geopolitic China has been acting tough after Covid is Hong Kong. The new Security Law was established more quickly and executed swiftly against some kids. And you can make a case for Sino-india border and for Taiwan with the naval exercises. But none of them are acting against US. US doesn't get to have a claim in Hong Kong. China actually has not done head to head exercise in SCS, which China entirely could since US had a couple plague ridden carriers. So quit whining McMaster. stephenthinkpad has issued a correction as of 13:35 on Sep 21, 2020 |

Some Guy TT posted:https://twitter.com/BBCWorld/status/1307534658192670720 yeah the thai opposition is a little bit embarrassing with this stuff, i guess when you've successfully eliminated all real opposition the only inspiration people have is media. that said they are entirely in the right, the thai monarchy and military government is reactionary and corrupt to the core, and the opposition now is a mix between basically young progressive liberal types who supported the (now banned) Future Forward Party and the old red shirt thaksin backed populists.

the general rule about military media is that you want imagery of soldiers doing cool poo poo, jumping through flaming hula hoops or launching off aircraft carriers in jets. shows motion and attracts the eye. but it's hard to do that with forklifts so they just have them spin around an obstacle course, which, well...

The PLA is a trashfire that operates more like the National Guard rather than an actual army, consisting of only the most desperate rural poor and their unemployable (but well-connected) officer class. Spinning trucks around and doing swingset drills is actually an improvement from using soldiers as manual labor or getting into huge street fights with a rival unit

That video of the India/China border clash where the PLA officer is just screaming and hollering dumb poo poo and his translator is trying to work something out w/ the indian officer who is de-escalating just lol... PLA is exactly where some idiot rich kid ends up running things despite everyone knowing they're incompetent, and they'll have to purge their officer class if China ever gets into actual conflict Antonymous has issued a correction as of 20:52 on Sep 21, 2020 |

The white brokebrains in this thread: quote:Thus, by a continuous shifting of rhetorical focus, the enemies are at the same time too strong and too weak. Basically the country that operates multiple aircraft carriers, hypersonic cruise missiles and fleets of large transport aircraft is also at the same time so corrupt and incompetent that they're "only the most desperate rural poor and their unemployable (but well-connected) officer class." Also this thread: India, a country that is literally surrounded on every single border by either a Chinese ally or a country at least friendly to China, is going to surround China with the aid of Japan.

well having your army be like one giant national guard is like a "people's army." creighton abrams (they named a tank after him) realized that the U.S. had lost the political will to fight in vietnam and restructured the army to devolve more and more responsibilities to the guard. the U.S. army today can carry out a raid, like a special forces op, but to go big requires that every state is going to have troops taken from their guard forces, which means that those governors have to agree, binding those state governors to the war. it's structurally impossible for the U.S. army today to fight a big war without heavily relying on the guard for basic poo poo like food and fuel.

BrutalistMcDonalds posted:well having your army be like one giant national guard is like a "people's army." Not just logistics, reserve component forces for artillery/mechanized infantry are being deactivated and integrated into the national guard. Soon most if not all "combat" focused reserve jobs will be national guard only, if they aren't already with the reserve components being mostly centered around logistics, signal, engineering, medical and maybe some MPs.

I heard an argument which make sense to me, China must be Trump's single most hated entity personally, because in Trump's mind his reelection 3D chess game was going real well until Covid19 came out of nowhere and hosed up his effort of pumping the stock market and job market. And he must think China need to pay for the Corona.

I think the political class in the US is worried about China because they want to do some imperialism but it's not personal to Trump in some way, at least not anymore than iran or palestine or previously syria or whatever.

Jose posted:He was doing dumb trade war stuff with China long before covid was a thing I know that, I am saying he didn't personally hate China until mid 2020. The trade war actually only change the Sino-US trade deficit to a minimal scale. The separated sanctions against Chinese high tech companies/semiconductor business affect China much more than the stuff in the trade war. stephenthinkpad has issued a correction as of 13:22 on Sep 22, 2020 |
