It's a slap in the face of China's enemies, who hope we do not stay innovative and efficient, who hope that we rest on our laurels and allow bloat.
Think of how much better procurement is gonna be once we got rid of those that didn't pass the metrics and bring in more competent politicians in charge.
The likes of Shoigu, Gerasimov and the whole IDF high command can only pollute China's military ranks if China lets them. Don't let them.
Provided that China doesn’t sustain unnecessary loses and continues it current procure and upgrades while either manipulating (quietly) or simply letting the USA waste its resources on stupid pointless ventures is a victory for China given that it help makes Chinas future fights that much easier. In fact if the USA falls with Russia shaken but not stired while China remains mostly untouched, we can consider China to be the overall victor despite not doing much of the heavy lifting.
If continuing to regulate and replace members who harm Chinas overall interest is a bad thing, then please tell me, what has been the net benefit of keeping emotional idiots like Lloyd Austin, John Kirby, Victoria Nuland, the walking disaster that is Jake Sullivan and friggen Blinken who all should have been thrown out long ago for the debacles in Afghanistan, Ukraine (which they spent all that resources only to end in a counteroffensive that is about to go in the reverse due to sheer stupidity of command which lead by the USA) and now the Israeli crisis which has the potential to literally blast its efforts of turning the global south against China and Russia into a million piece of it hasn’t already.
All of these people should quite frankly be thrown in front of a firing squad. China deserves to fall if they let any three of these debacles happen at once on their watch which means the fact that China has yet to commit even ones of these debacles means that China doesn’t deserve to be criticised one bit from trimming unwanted fat so to speak. I dare say that China is better than Russia at this given that China has yet to do a Ukraine to Taiwan despite that fact that Russia isn’t losing but a more skilful leader would probably not have let things get to that point that it did. But much of this blame should lie with the fact that Putin had to correct the mistakes of his predecessors who are all but traitors to Russia in all but name who also should’ve been sent to the chopping block for all the harm done.
To be fair though, the US had all its advantages and basically managed to lose so damn badly to a so called gas station in the middle of nowhere that really how can they be called a super power if it’s leadership is literally the definition of super dumb as f@ck. PR wins mean nothing if the nation falls apart and if China still stands while the USA ends up in a mad max (those tent cities should serve as foreshadowing given how little is being done to fix this), then really these PR victories on some minister being demoted and removed might has been be part of a comedy skit as far as the average Chinese person is concerned because much of the 1 billion people population of China and most of the world in fact while in the decades to come will be wondering, how is the blazing f@ck did a super power go from the victor of the Cold War to being Homer Simpson moonlighting as nikocado avocado. No amount of PR wins can possibly distract from that and even I can’t work out until this day as to why on earth this man isn’t dead yet, kinda like the nation he is currently living in and yes, it is the USA and he (Nikocado) does exist and seriously he really does symbolises what the USA is right is literally every single sense of the world
