My favorite part is when the NYT says the US backed down over a diplomatic crisis, wheb I have from fairly credibile sources that the US will juat invade mexico and deal with a law enforcement matter for them whenever a big enough company asks them too. Also the US's record of behavior the only country they might maybe be scared of is the PRC and I sometimes think they are not smart enough to be scared of them

They're definitely not smart enough to be sufficiently cautious. That there are US troops on Kinmen (right next to Xiamen- a city on the mainland) right now is all that needs to be said.

Honestly, unless the US tears itself apart prior, I expect WW3 in due time.

At this point I almost expect the US to do WW3 to delay their collapse, and I would not be opposed to fighting in it... neath the red flag
