Compounding rumors tells us something is up.
Heavy Chinese military movement rumored, some video seen
300k Russians moved, confirmable.
Now this, less confirmable but certainly on the same line of movement in preparation…
First off, I'm not saying this is nothing. That stated, whenever one military of a would be adversary moves a large number of troops and assets, even for just a planned military exercise, the opposing side generally does the same. I was in the military during the later stages of the cold war. The NATO allies did a yearly exercise called "Reforger" - plans/dates for Reforger were announced months in advance so as not to provoke a nuclear response. The USSR and other Soviet block allies would ALWAYS move troops in large number during the lead up and execution of the NATO members moving troops into and around Europe.
100%. Been there as well. Both sides also used the opportunities to gather intel they otherwise wouldn't have had an opportunity to see, so the Soviets used those exercises for multiple things (and as a result so did we).
No, compounding rumors tells us someone came up with something juicy and got it to the right gossips who are now talking incessantly and spinning up drama just like in grade school. Gossip is not fact.
Any movement by the Chinese military is not necessarily related to a movement by any other military. It may be. It may not be. Maybe soldiers are moving for a planned war game? In 2018, we heard a lot of chatter as Putin moved men for that. It wasn't WW3. It was a standard training exercise.
The fact is that the military moves troops all the time, sometimes in large amounts. The public is not privy to the reasons for those things. Sometimes we see massive convoys on the highways, but we have no idea why they're there and where they're going.
In this instance, we have nothing to explain what's going on, just like normal. May it's just troops redeploying wherever they were from after duty for the Queen's funeral, either ceremonial or to ensure security for the hundreds of world leaders who presented to pay respects. If one of our presidents passed and we had foreign leaders from all over the world in DC, you'd expect to have large numbers of soldiers helping with security. They might've been in plainclothes during their duty to downplay their presence, but they'd deploy home in their normal camo at the end.
Without more information, we don't know. Speculating that this is WW3 without any evidence is irresponsible and is rightfully being called out. Extraordinary claims, extraordinary proof. That proof is lacking thus far.

Months ago there were posts of 100,000's Chicom troops moving by rail to Ukraine. It didn't happen.

Time will tell. All the extra fluff in your response is unwarranted, I’m looking at the same echo chamber you are fren.
