      China didn’t do shit tho. The US started this and is now shocked by the consequences of their own actions. lol

        Sorry, poor phrasing on my part. I didn’t mean to imply that China wasn’t 100% within their rights considering the USA absolutely started shit. American government fucked around now it’s finding out.

          Oh I know what you meant. I was just adding that the US brought this on themselves. Technically, yes, China did take action, but they would never had retaliated in the first place had the US not tried to start shit.

            It was still good to point out that I had phrased it poorly in my initial comment, even if the real comrades here will know what I meant. I appreciate that.

      history suggests that we’ll take genocidal action whenever the american empire needs something, so i’m certain that the military industrial complex will not be the ones getting fucked.
