    Most of China’a infrastructure is on the coast. We can achieve that with a couple SSBNs lurking thousands of kilometers off the coast.

    Bonus points if one surfaces where it can be photographed, but in international water, every so often. Just as a reminder.

        Are just following me around? Hey while you’re here, are the people of Xinjiang Chinese or not? I just want to know if I should refer to them as an oppressed population or an occupied country?

          No, who are you?

          Of course the people of Xinjiang are Chinese. I suppose you could refer to the Uyghur (who aren’t the only people who live in Xinjiang) as an oppressed group, in the same way you could refer to African Americans or European Roma as an oppressed population.

            Oh no, oh gosh. I’m sorry to be the one to tell you this but I was told that if I criticized the Chinese government I have to be a Sinophobe.
