No surprise most held a western view. Would be interesting to see POV(point of view) from people live in Taiwan. I have some contacts in Taiwan and most are not worry. This dance between Taiwan/China have been going on longer than most people is alive on HN. Goes without saying that bad news sell.

You're making massive assumptions about my background.
Taiwan Foreign Minister Joseph Wu literally said yesterday his country is preparing for war. I think he'd know.

My comment wasn't meant to single out anyone.
Posturing is part of this political dance.
case point North Korea. I don't have a crystal ball but country that trade together don't go to war. Follow the money make sense: https://money.cnn.com/data/world_markets/asia/
If war is imminent; i would suspect a crash. War is expensive and it's not economical for CCP to start one now. I like to think in positive because the alternative is "lost ancient tech"/back to fight with bow and arrow.
