Chinese people are practical, not ideological.

I thought protesting was a capital offense in China??? China has nukes now, why not use them? Basically the same reason nobody else does, their messed up, and the whole planet gets to share a little of the joy.

Your right, the Chinese are practical, and why they'll lose the trade war with America. China buy's stuff the really need, which America can provide cheaper than other sources. American's are wasteful and basically lazy anymore, and don't mind throwing money down the toilet, or in the landfill. China depends on America buying boatloads of stuff, nobody really needs. China needs some American goods, but mostly, they need America to buy their products. Stuff, we should, and could make ourselves. Probably would send much of it to the landfill as quick either. People in need, always give in. Personally, I think America would be better off without a trade agreement, and get back to making their own stuff.

It would be a surprise, since nobody has actually used them since WWII. The response hasn't been great on those false alarms they've had past few years. If they were actual false alarms. Rocketman (north korea) was playing quite a bit back then. Not sure about the flight time of a ICBM, but doubt it would take an hour. Really sort of pointless to use them to conquer a country anyway, it'll be a few years before it cooled off enough, to go in, and clean up the mess enough to repopulate or use in anyway. Probably wouldn't matter, the other nuke countries will be on high alert, and an itch trigger finger, plotting to take out China, before they get their turn. Also got to watch out for all the radioactive dust you kick up into the atmosphere, it'll come back to haunt you, before it settles.

The only thing Chinese want is wealth, power, global domination. If China had nukes in 1945 and no one else did, China would not hesitate to conquer the world. Chinese are not like western people. It's pretty obvious from China history.

That's why you will never ever see a single school climate strike in China like you do every day in the west.

Careful. Quite a few Chinese revolutions started in the schools.
