I'm sorry you guys, I don't know if I'm harping on too much about this, but this stock really really bothers me.

I was mentioning to a couple friends earlier that all of this feels incredibly strange, and is absolutely riddled with coincidence (Right after Ba Yi? Really? F-35s grounded? During RIMPAC?). The fact that a stock called $HKD of all things (Note: The company is called
AMTD Digital) randomly soars 16,000% and becomes worth 400 Billion dollars, despite being a random 50 person company that only just got on the stock market on 7/15.. it's just far too much of a coincidence to bear. We all know about Pelosi's insider trading nonsense, which only adds further coincidental fuel to the fire.

Am I just schizo-ing out here, and finding connections where there are none, or do others kinda see what I'm saying about this being incredibly incredibly fishy?
I don't know why you're so bothered by this, it's just the typical shenanigans of American oligarchs, i.e., Tuesday.

In summary:

US won a gigantic propaganda victory. China was defeated in the propaganda war.

No amount of exercises short of a nuclear test, interception of an SLBM or GEO ASAT, would repair the damage. China has failed to demonstrate sufficient resolve to even attempt to deter the flight. It must demonstrate at least the capability to inflict damage on hostiles otherwise even Lithuania will become emboldened. Capability is necessary but insufficient, but lacking resolve means even capability gets called into question.

Laws don't matter. The same thing remains: if the West is strong enough, it will fight and oppose China over Taiwan. If China is strong enough, they will back down and run their mouths. The real life balance of power decides it; laws are made by man to be broken by man.
All of this stuff I have been saying could potentially happen before China can afford to become an international pariah. My question to you is that: if what I said happen in the next few months or even year, what should China do? Based on your logic and that of several other users, China wouldn’t have the strength to afford a full kinetic conflict in that given timeframe so should China just allow it to happen? Should China show to the world that it won’t react whenever someone undercuts its legitimacy and sovereignty?
