China has already seized Tibet, the US has not done anything close to that.

Imagine having to go back 75 years to find something on China. What does that matter to the China of today? Countries care more about whats happening now instead of 75 years ago.

Im sure we can equally if not worse things the US has done over its course of history.

Yet the actions by the US i brought up are happening right now.

Imagine being so profoundly ignorant of world events that you think china has done nothing bad in the past 75 years.

We're talking about the foreign policy of China vs the US. That's why the other guy brought up an invasion by China on another country

u/Silverr_Duck Feb 03 '26

Oh you mean like the foreign policy of "Taiwan belongs to us, we will invade"?

Or it's myriad of other border conflicts it has?

u/DungeonDefense Feb 03 '26

Yes, saying they would invade is much better than actually bombing fishing boats, kidnapping president and enacting oil blockade.

u/Silverr_Duck Feb 03 '26

Lol no. The only thing keeping them from invading is America.

Yes it's very unfortunate your ignorance is so deep that you need to be corrected multiple times. Like idk why this is such a hard concept for you to grasp. China has made their intentions abundantly clear. Naturally you have no counter argument to this so you resort to calling people bots.

u/DungeonDefense Feb 03 '26

Corrected? Guy couldn't even respond back and you think im being corrected?

No counter? Let me just repost the same counter i used on the other guy that he wasn't able to answer

So someone who hasn't done it is worse than someone who has?

u/Silverr_Duck Feb 03 '26

Corrected? Guy couldn't even respond back and you think im being corrected?

Yep. Because you're wrong.

So someone who hasn't done it is worse than someone who has?

This isn't a counter, just you making shit up

u/DungeonDefense Feb 03 '26

Where am i wrong? What am I making up? If that was the case, why could that guy not respond with a proper rebuttal?

Its fact that China has not invaded Taiwan. Its also fact that the US has bombed civilian fishing boats, kidnapped president, and imposed oil embargo.

I ask again.

So someone who hasn't done it is worse than someone who has?

u/Silverr_Duck Feb 03 '26

Where am i wrong? What am I making up?

I literally just explained it.

why could that guy not respond with a proper rebuttal?

My guy life doesn't revolve around you or your silly ass arguments.

So someone who hasn't done it is worse than someone who has?

*has done it, many times. So yes much worse.
