Taiwan is responsible for 60% of the world's semiconductor manufacturing. I don't see how China can pull off an invasion without angering every nation on the planet. Especially as we're also in the middle of a global chip shortage.

For starters, if a genuine war declaration was made America would be immediately plagued by terrorist attacks from the huge 'Chinese-American' population.

Lol, what are they going to do? Japan was a much bigger threat in the past, yet the USA was able to round up all Japanese citizens and put them in camps. Chinese Americans are smart, but they were never fighters.

and the Far-Left (whether Antifa or the extreme 'progressive' DSA types, whose ranks would fill with young ethnic Chinese) immediately taking to the streets in violent protest.

For every Antifa thug, there will be new Kyle Rittenhouses to put them down.

    China will forever suck at war. Their best feat was just zerg rushing U.S troops during the Korean War. But they never showed off any impressive technology or military prowess.

    If anything, the only reason the U.S would lose a war today is because the country has turned into a multicultural nightmare that prevents any national unity. But if it was 80% White or more, China would be blown out of the water.

    That's funny. Why are we speaking English right now if China was so powerful?
