While the cities in China are well developed, the rural countryside is back in the Iron Age. If the dams failed -- especially the Three Gorges Dam -- the resulting floods would bring the Iron Age right into the cities. It would be such a catastrophic failure of empire that I have heard rumors that Taiwan is aware of this vulnerability and have the plans and means of hitting those dams if China invades. We have never seen in our lifetimes the level of a humanitarian crisis that would cause. It would be biblical.
Hmmmm, maybe. The vast Chinese population, however, don't "deserve" getting their lives uprooted because of the actions of their elite CCP. It would be great if the CCP apparatchiks were all destroyed and left the countryside alone...but war doesn't work that way. Every single time dictators have fallen to war, they end up taking millions of people with them.
I'm with you on this. It would be like saying Americans deserve 'ills' because of Biden. Those poor people have been oppressed and tortured enough. I pray the CCP is taken out but pray for the Chinese people as well. :(
Fuck them, if they outnumber the CCP even more than we outnumber our elitists even without guns they could have overthrown the CCP decades ago but they're too cowed to do so. We're still trying to do so with minimal bloodshed here but we've also not had nearly as many atrocities as the Chinese have put up with.

It's all fair'n'square for what they've done

Well, there’s not much we can do about that.
Hopefully the Chinese people get angry soon and take their anger out on the CCP.

watch the water,
Taiwan had plenty of time to prepare for a knockout blow.
And as Crowder said a week ago we're entering the season where the water between China and Taiwan gets very choppy for several months.
