    Can’t depend on logic or past history when it comes to humans.

    I’m simply agreeing with tsai that it would be a terribly disadvantageous time for China to invade Taiwan, probably the worst time since Taiwan became a country.

    And while china has a lot of internal political strife, the ruling class is capitalizing so much by allowing the status quo of capitalist production and centralization and taking unearned credit for a naturally recovering economy that the risks vastly outweigh the benefits of taking Taiwan by force.

    The CCP is making bank and engendering sorely needed domestic goodwill by leapfrogging industrial progress to invest directly into modern infrastructure, finance and technology.

    China invading Taiwan would be like tossing a turkey you’ve been roasting for two and a half hours out the window to make room for a Rotisserie chicken being sold by a passing street vendor.
