Maybe it’s just the news I’m fed, but I have an unshakeable feeling that China is waging war with “the west”, but they’re doing it discretely, by making everyone a little sicker.

China doesn't have to do anything on purpose. America and American's utter disregard for anything other than saving a couple pennies here and there mean every possible corner will be cut, without any purposeful planning or damaging intent.

True, but that’s beside the point.

Considering what "the west" did to itself in past centuries (and still does) I think China is just participating in a preëxisting tradition of self harm.
