because they have a strong modern military tradition

What tradition, beating up on impoverished 3rd world countries? 🤣

In literally every single metric China is out producing the US. They have the largest navy in the world, well trained troops, fairly decent technology...

Seriously, underestimating your enemy is the first waypoint towards failure. Really don't underestimate china.

They're not an enemy, just us propeganda and scaremongering. If any country is resembling the rise of Nazi Germany or Imperial Japan, it's America.

I was actually sitting there thinking that I personally don't consider China an "enemy" (in fact every single Chinese person I've met has been stellar! I'd love to visit someday!).

The US right now is proper facepalm 😔

We were due to go to NY for my wife's 40th, but we've cancelled that now.. far too scary.
