What would that common vision look like? The current Chinese leadership sees gaining total control over the first island chain (including Taiwan) as an existential necessity. Western leaders can't allow that.

A better solution is to constantly harass, undermine, and isolate China much like we did with the USSR. Apply enough sustained pressure and hopefully the country will eventually collapse into a violent internal revolution.

If Silicon Valley and Wall Street act like absolutely nothing has changed while the Pentagon ups the pressure militarily that's a scenario I'm afraid will lead to war. All segments of society must know the stake and be on the same page. The fact that one part of American society is pretending like nothing is happening while the other prepares for creates a situation that lacks clarity. This is how you stumble into it. Everything must be crystal clear.

US tech companies have been rapidly diversifying their supply chains to reduce dependence on China for about 2 years now.
