Eh, the geographic fundamentals have never changed; China could barely hope to hold the SCS even with all the new "Oops, turns out no amount of money can substitute for a century of shipbuilding and carrier air ops experience, better try plan B" fake-islands and the bought-from-the-Clintons anti-ship missiles scattered among them. Pouring dirt into a shallow sea can make you a miniature airbase, but it can't project power. China has a fraction of the chance Japan had in 1941 to invade US soil, and Japan had virtually no chance even immediately following Pearl Harbor. There's no denying a civil war would be tremendously destructive and culturally traumatizing (but hey, Spain survived their anti-Marxist civil war), but nobody's in a position to even think about fucking with us during it.

Chinese subversion, sure. They might even try to sneak in heavy infantry weapons for the radical leftists, though to do risks a limited war that would do more damage to China than it would to us, as their economy is built on a house of cards. But we're already dealing with widespread Chinese subversion.

He's a fool spreading propaganda intended to make sure we never fight back.

That's mostly what I'm referring to - Chinese help that allows a marxist revolution here in America.

I'm never going along with it. I can honestly say I'd rather die than even consider it.

I worked hard for what little I do have, and I'm proud of it. I look back on the founders and smile. Should there be a heaven, perhaps they'll smile upon me...But under no circumstances am I doing shit for any communist government. Shoot me in the head, idgaf.
