Okay, then give me the reasons to believe in imminent Chinese military aggression. And why I should take the word of a nation that has been basically ceaselessly at war for decades, off the heels of yet another senseless conflict in Afghanistan.

I think you are projecting the warlike tendencies of the US onto China.

That's not even what is being discussed. The question is: what is the proper response to a hyper aggressive China?

No one is saying something like that is likely. We are discussing hypotheticals. There's no need to be so upset.

> what is the proper response to a hyper aggressive China?

I believe that GP is trying to generalize that question to "what is the proper response to any hyper aggressive nation". And the fact that the answer to that question will have more profound effects on responses to the US than to China.

In fact, I think that the question is valid. Limiting the discussion to China is blatant anti-Chinese propaganda. Broadening the discussion to "hyper aggressive nations" is fair and legitimate.

Are you completely oblivious to China's provocations in the South China sea? I know how things are being spun back in China, but I assume you occasionally read non-CCP-approved news, right?

I assume your reading list is approved in Langley
