He told the New York Times that he thinks the U.S. will “very likely” find itself in a three-front war with China, Russia, and Iran. As a result, he said, the Pentagon should continue developing autonomous weapons at full speed, pointing to big mismatches in how far the U.S. would be willing to go while fighting a war compared with other countries.
Not to mention China seems to choose the most economical decision it seems. They care about Taiwan strictly because of money. There is no economic growth for them from fighting the U.S.
I disagree about Taiwan. That’s a thing that goes back to the founding of modern China, it is, and has been a cornerstone of their policy. But otherwise ya, they seem to make rational economic choices.
It only seems like that because theyre being compared next to the US which is currently sawing its own leg off.
That is so false.
China routinely hamstrings its industry with burdensome government involvement.
And they act out like raging toddlers. Look at how poorly they managed integrating HK because they wanted to rush it with force.
