As many as 20 aircraft from China either crossed the median line of the Taiwan Strait or breached the island country’s air defense identification zone.

They can keep bluffing, but unless they have some way to overcome that 76% of their fuel is coming from that Indonesian strait. They are at a severe supply and energy disadvantage.
However, they are also racing the clock as more of their economy crumbles away, they will have less resources and money to fight back when things get insane. What doesn’t get used now in war, will be used against him in civil war if/when their economy goes bust.
Fuck the human rights policy of China. Fuck the way they treat uyghurs in their labour camps. Fuck China.
Ramping up for WW2024
WW1984 wasn’t a good movie, let’s see what they can come up with

This is just fear mongering. Taiwan is safe because of years of good economic decisions. They have semiconductor factories. That’s why it’s valuable. You can’t get what makes Taiwan valuable by going to war with them.
Also, most countries don’t formally recognize Taiwan. How does Taiwan have airspace if you don’t recognize it?
A little internet disclaimer: I’m not pro China. I disagree with nation states as a concept, but let’s try and think about what’s actually happening here.
If a group of people inside another group of people want to be their own group of people than the new group should be able to split off from the old one without issue.
So (imo) if Taiwan wants to go alone, China has no choice. Taiwan, of course, would find new problems with trade and travel to China, and would be on their own financially and defensively. If that’s something they are confident they can handle, then they should be allowed to.
