It's the dunk tank.

This is where you come to post big-brained hot takes by chuds, libs, or even fellow leftists, and tear them to itty-bitty pieces with precision dunkstrikes.

Rule 1: All posts must include links to the subject matter, and no identifying information should be redacted.

Rule 2: If your source is a reactionary website, please use archive.is instead of linking directly.

Rule 3: No sectarianism.

Rule 4: TERF/SWERFs Not Welcome

Rule 5: No ableism of any kind (that includes stuff like libt*rd)

Rule 6: Do not post fellow hexbears.

Rule 7: Do not individually target other instances' admins or moderators.

Rule 8: The subject of a post cannot be low hanging fruit, that is comments/posts made by a private person that have low amount of upvotes/likes/views. Comments/Posts made on other instances that are accessible from hexbear are an exception to this. Posts that do not meet this requirement can be posted to !shitreactionariessay@lemmygrad.ml

Rule 9: if you post ironic rage bait im going to make a personal visit to your house to make sure you never make this mistake again

China is probably not yet ready to mount a complex air-sea invasion of Taiwan, with the mighty USA at its back. But it would have no real difficulties making land invasion into Russia.

Taiwan.. not yet, too hard, but Russia is officially a GO opines our dunk tank subject, further free military advice for China can be found in the article

Famously easy to invade place, Russia.

Does he really think China just loves doing invasions for the sake of doing invasions like the US

Settler realism

China is also historically pretty bad on invasions. PRC did two and lost first and draw second.

What are the odds this Telegraph idiot thinks the liberation of Tibet was a Chinese invasion?

300% at least. Also the first invasion i mentioned, Taiwan at the end of civil war, was only an invasion from stricte military point of view as in "naval invasion operation", because you can't invade your own country.
