Welcome to c/news! Please read the Hexbear Code of Conduct and remember... we're all comrades here.
Rules:
-- PLEASE KEEP POST TITLES INFORMATIVE --
-- Overly editorialized titles, particularly if they link to opinion pieces, may get your post removed. --
-- All posts must include a link to their source. Screenshots are fine IF you include the link in the post body. --
-- If you are citing a twitter post as news please include not just the twitter.com in your links but also nitter.net (or another Nitter instance). There is also a Firefox extension that can redirect Twitter links to a Nitter instance: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/libredirect/ or archive them as you would any other reactionary source using e.g. https://archive.today . Twitter screenshots still need to be sourced or they will be removed --
-- Mass tagging comm moderators across multiple posts like a broken markov chain bot will result in a comm ban--
-- Repeated consecutive posting of reactionary sources, fake news, misleading / outdated news, false alarms over ghoul deaths, and/or shitposts will result in a comm ban.--
-- Neglecting to use content warnings or NSFW when dealing with disturbing content will be removed until in compliance. Users who are consecutively reported due to failing to use content warnings or NSFW tags when commenting on or posting disturbing content will result in the user being banned. --
-- Using April 1st as an excuse to post fake headlines, like the resurrection of Kissinger while he is still fortunately dead, will result in the poster being thrown in the gamer gulag and be sentenced to play and beat trashy mobile games like 'Raid: Shadow Legends' in order to be rehabilitated back into general society. --

MODERATORS
good, maybe we won't be stupid enough to provoke one then.
When has the USA NOT gone to war?
Historically it's chickened out of direct confrontation with the USSR and Iran
I was actually gonna mention Iran but still
What? Of course USA will do everything it can to provoke China to go to war. Just look at what's happening in the Philippines. When Duerte was president everything was fine and there was peace in the area. Now that US puppet Marcos Jr is there, suddenly they need to build 4 MORE US military bases there. Now suddenly there's all sorts of collisions and arguments. Hmm...
Duterte literally sponsored militias and death squads that murdered people for using recreational drugs. I don’t think we should say everything was “fine” under him…
Well then it's better for the USA to provoke a war that it will quickly lose than one where it might win
