    Trump has only set a precedent for China. If the rest of the west doesn’t do shit about this, which they won’t, China will just follow Trumps playbook. Don’t be surprised when Xi will order the kidnapping of the Taiwanese president.

      Lmao what an insane whataboutism, akin to “the crazy screaming guy that stomps over the neighborhood just took another person hostage. So watch out for the quiet neighbor that has done nothing wrong for my entire life time, they’ll probably start taking hostages any minute too.”

        Are you saying the CCP has done nothing that violates international laws or threaten other countries sovereignty?

      I love how American minds work. “We did a terrible thing, this is bad because China might do the same!!” Meanwhile China hasn’t dripped a bomb in decades.

      Fucking liberals.

          I’m a socialist, and I don’t give a fuck where you’re from. American Exceptionalism and Imperial Apologia doesn’t concern itself with your soil, just your words and actions.

          Sit down and shut up.
