Welcome to c/news! Please read the Hexbear Code of Conduct and remember... we're all comrades here.
Rules:
-- PLEASE KEEP POST TITLES INFORMATIVE --
-- Overly editorialized titles, particularly if they link to opinion pieces, may get your post removed. --
-- All posts must include a link to their source. Screenshots are fine IF you include the link in the post body. --
-- If you are citing a twitter post as news please include not just the twitter.com in your links but also nitter.net (or another Nitter instance). There is also a Firefox extension that can redirect Twitter links to a Nitter instance: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/libredirect/ or archive them as you would any other reactionary source using e.g. https://archive.today . Twitter screenshots still need to be sourced or they will be removed --
-- Mass tagging comm moderators across multiple posts like a broken markov chain bot will result in a comm ban--
-- Repeated consecutive posting of reactionary sources, fake news, misleading / outdated news, false alarms over ghoul deaths, and/or shitposts will result in a comm ban.--
-- Neglecting to use content warnings or NSFW when dealing with disturbing content will be removed until in compliance. Users who are consecutively reported due to failing to use content warnings or NSFW tags when commenting on or posting disturbing content will result in the user being banned. --
-- Using April 1st as an excuse to post fake headlines, like the resurrection of Kissinger while he is still fortunately dead, will result in the poster being thrown in the gamer gulag and be sentenced to play and beat trashy mobile games like 'Raid: Shadow Legends' in order to be rehabilitated back into general society. --

MODERATORS
Trump will start WWIII (put unacceptable sanctions on China, causing China to retaliate). And since war is so presidential, and really that would not be the time to change presidents, Democrats and Republicans decide its fine if he runs again.
:fdr-shining:
I think the most unrealistic part of this is that China retaliates with military force to sanctions. The rest is much more believable lol
Exactly. Pretty sure China's plan is either cooperate and build prosperity together, or...
I was just trying to mirror what Japan did in response to US provocations.
I wasn't criticizing you or your joke or something, your joke was funny. Just wanted to highlight how funny it is that the only unrealistic part was China's response. The rest is sadly believable.
Thing is US is broke. China has a US sized population which they are signing deal after deal with in Indonesia. We're becoming irrelevant. Which is smart for China.
The US is in debt at the federal level, but it still represents one of the largest markets because of how much spending power is held by the middle class, relative to other nations. It’s on the decline but it still isn’t at the point where China can just shrug off the US.
