The US wants to deploy a previously banned missile system to Japan for military drills, Nikkei Asia reported Thursday. The Typhon missile launcher is a ground-based system that can fire nuclear-capable Tomahawk missiles, which have a range of more than 1,000 miles. Ground-based missiles with a range between 310 and…
Just because a weapons platform is capable of using nuclear warheads doesn’t mean we are going to hand said warheads over. The system has plenty of conventional warheads.
The weapons system was prohibited specifically because of its use with nuclear weapons. This is its distinguishing feature. This is the “message” being sent, though it also isn’t just a message because it is an actual offensive weapon.
Deployment of a weapons system as a deterrent is proportional.
It is obviously not.
You’re spreading Chinese lies.
I am? Which ones? Are Chinese lies a special kind?
Sounds to me like you are flirting with xenophobia.
In the context of this particular discussion, China = The CCP ≠ The Chinese people.
I dunno, I think Chinese means Chinese. It sounds like you just throw this around as an epithet and it is sinophobic. Please do some reflection on whether you are okay with xenophobia.
As far as which one are lies? Your entire post history is nothing but Chinese propaganda and lies.
Name one from this comment chain.
It’s not xenophobic to call out CCP bullshit like the shit you are spouting.
Such as?
That’s called being a good human.
I don’t think it’s good human behavior to use xenophobic rhetoric.
I do. I clearly defined the usage, and don’t give two shits about projection from you, or your twisting of the definition.
Your conflation of something being Chinese with something being bad is xenophobic regardless of whether you want to pretend you can redefine it to mean something it doesn’t.
You have claimed, falsely, that China isn’t escalating violence against its neighbors.
I actually haven’t said anything like this. Please provide quotes with your claims because your recollection is incorrect.
Everyone can see that you are, in fact, a CCP shill.
Is that so? When can I expect to receive a check for my valiant effort in knowing installing a nuclear-capable missile is far more escalatory than the tiniest airspace toe dip of a flight path over ocean? Only the finest in professional propagandists could have such an opinion!

I never did that. You projected that, and just now, lied about it.

No, it can be understood from how you use the terms. You are adding “Chinese” as a bit of negative spice to your false claim that I am lying or spreading false propaganda. When challenged on this, you attempted to (incorrectly, this is not how language works) redefine “Chinese” to mean “CCP” and, per the typical crypto-sinophobic incantation, not the Chinese people. You then continued to interchangeably use Chinese and CCP as negative epithets.
Your attempt at redefinition actually just dug a new hole. You could just say, “oh wow I don’t mean to suggest that, I will stop” instead of doubling down on treating Chinese like an insult.

Thank you for openly confirming your sinophobia.
