Some conservative tools believe China hopes USA escalates the conflict so it can finally "invade" Taiwan. They have more brain-dead takes, but I'm not posting it to save you from the cognitohazards. This is what years of believing blindly to imperial core lies non-stop does to a mf.

You could just say "years of ass kissing the imperial core."

I was too disgusted to think about different options, changed it 👍.

Huh I've been hearing this from leftists as well actually, as a reason for China's inaction.

It is plausible that China sees is as a breather from USA's pressure on East Asia (remember Japan's statements about Taiwan?).

But their take on this plausibility makes my blood boil. It's just pure unadulterated copaganda slop with zero info on current political landscape.
