    yes, because what happened in the past can perfectly predict what’s going to happen next.

    not saying you are definitely wrong, but if someone wants to have a bet i wouldn’t bet on the side of China not invading.

        Spoken like someone who is blinded by the Trump admin, obliviously naive. You must’ve been one of those that thought Russia would never invade Ukraine despite US intelligence.

            No because you’re using your current “America bad” outrage to justify other countries and their expansionism. Other countries can be bad, you know? Many just were unable to do so under American hegemony.

              China hasn’t tried to expand or colonize anyone in my lifetime. America has some so numerous times. Maybe stop being so defensive and look at history without your America colored glasses.

                I never once tried to say the US is perfect but countries are also more hesitant to do things like that due to US policing. So yes, while the U.S. has done bad, its geopolitical stance post WW2 has been mostly successful in stabilizing the world and deterring aggression.
