oop yea i didnt mean to say that war was coming by 2025-2028 but rather that there's definite and clear evidence that at some point china will eclipse the US as the world's hegemon, and the US won't let that happen. tbh itll be hard to say when a direct war with china will ever break out, but we know for a fact that it is already being fought in the periphery. the war between china and the us will be determined by the international situation as we can see with things like the indo pacific framework solidifying an economic-political-military alliance between the us, japan, india and australia aimed at surrounding china. the host of allegiances between the two poles will probably be the brunt of the violence until the situation severely deteriorates.

both sides it looks like are trying to play the long game, so idk if anybody could really make an accurate prediction, but you make a lot of good points

even conservative (non propagandistic) estimates put chinas economy eclipsing the us around 2025-2028. even a short war (~2 years) has the possibility of setting back china's gdp >30% and a longer timeline would mean an even bigger hit. it's pretty obvious that the next few years are going to be extremely crucial and the us will not let this chance pass them before its too late. us policy papers put the biggest factor on determining the war with china on the situation with chinas neighbors and the united states has not stopped agitating within those countries to change the odds. most of these countries are extremely economically linked with china as well, so the us is probably getting freaky w some real freakos to undermine that relationship. definitely gonna be a decade of decades.
