I've had it with this profoundly stupid cope sentiment among the pro-China crowd. The rampant delusion and underestimation of China in the west is not good, it's nothing but dangerous. Hitler's underestimation of the Soviets directly caused Operation Barbarossa and the deaths of 30 million people on the Eastern front, the same in today's nuclear world will be even more catastrophic. There should be a campaign to push back on the prevalent mindless tropes of China as a paper tiger that can be easily crushed to get the western populace to see it as at least more of a formidable foe to be respected and deter them from so cavalierly supporting a war.
