The China is not the Soviet Union. The Soviet Union fell to its bad management. while the China is much more focused and goal-oriented, moving forward in unison at all levels.
Right, but I’m not saying it is. My point is that the fact that someone is challenging American hegemony doesn’t mean there has to be war. There was definitely enough time in which the Soviet Union looked strong and unlikely to collapse to show that.
both sides know this, neither of them wants to be seen as the aggressor because then the other side will have a narrative edge for their action.
like the Imperial Japanese Army did in Pearl Harbor, where the US government took the opportunity to justify their use of Weapons of mass destruction on Japanese civilians.
As an example of how powerful it is to have a narrative edge in war. where a government can easily get away with a crime against humanity, without any consequences.

Are you really suggesting that the U.S. will conduct a nuclear first strike against China?
I have not, that’s your interpretation. Lol
Okay, then why talk about Hiroshima and Nagasaki?

Okay, so the U.S. is going to commit a crime against humanity in a war with China? What crime would this be?
that is your interpretation. You really have a crazy imagination dude. Chill out!
