Historically, Republicans are underrepresented in surveys but poll in higher numbers during actual elections. Also, a lot of my Democrat friends are flipping to Trump so I'm leaning more towards him winning. It's a strange election though, Bush era Neo-Cons like the Cheneys are now Democrats and the Kennedys are Republicans.

I prefer Trump because America is screwed either way, might as well pull down the parasitic sycophants in the EU, Japan, and Taiwan with us and give 'em some good ole "Freedom tax" too. Obsequious vassals gotta know their place and serve 'Murica! USA! USA!

I'm talking about the continuity of western civilization. Which clearly is continuous, from ancient Greece, to Rome and until today. The fact that it's not always a single empire doesn't really matter to a civilisation. Most civilisations are not civilisation states. And you shouldn't over interpret barbarian conquests. They don't usually replace the majority of the population, although they can change culture. Being overrun by barbarians who introduce poor governance is common enough in Chinese history anyway

Rome is simply an episode in western civilization. It's not roman civilisation. That's why you shouldn't compare Rome to China but to the Han dynasty

India is not culturally western. Turkey is not the inheritor of Rome either, despite ottoman claims. But people like the English have fully self colonised, abandoned their Celtic and Saxon heritage and are fully western, graeco Roman now. Their original culture by blood has only left a small legacy, but they wouldn't think of themselves as Celtic tribes, even if that's what the majority are genetically

Yeah and all episodes have an ending, right? You're shifting the conversation from Rome-China comparisons, to broadly talking about "Western civilization," a term that wasn't even coined until the 19th Century mind you. If we go there we'd be dragging this conversation on way longer, which isn't exactly necessary since as it stands the conversation seems to be reaching its conclusion anyways. But I'll remind you everyone here was strictly speaking about Rome and China as polities that exercised power and operated under its own identity, not how either left a civilizational legacy that influenced others.

Can't help but notice the massive moral superiority Russians have over Israelis in the way they've conducted their wars.

Those two situations are not comparable. Israeli just like Saudis in Yemen are under constrained by external factors so they have to maximize sooner.
Russia is not under that constrain. It can wait for Zelenski to moblize more and more people to get closer to front line for picked by Southern military district short range aviation like Su-25/Ka-52.
this will not be the only reason for prolonging the conflict. the longer those regions closer to Ukraine has flight restrictions on airports the more Putin can push people further to the East. This Crimean economic event not shifted to Moscow but Ufa
and the rest is whether true or not but to let Gulf Monarchies know how much Russian appreciate things relate to them and this impacting Ukraine.

Your history is a bit dubious when you wrote and claim that it was Vietnam ( a country that Deng hated and went to was against for its arrogance) "requested" for China to arm and fund the communist movement in SEA when the requester is also a militant communist country. It was the country of Singapore, under the behest of its visionary leader, LKY that implored China to suspend and stop the funding and arming of communist movements in SEA.

And please do provide an exemplary evidence that supports your incredible assertion that was able to produce productive economic prosperity while simultaneously supporting proxies all over the world that's closely aligned to your dogmatic political philosophy.

You misread. Vietnam wanted China to stop funding communist movements in SEA. They were still dealing with the remnants of Cambodian communists in 1988. Sino-Vietnamese border skirmishes did not stop until 1991 and Deng was rotating group armies to the border to blood the troops. Lee Kuan Yew's request was more public. The end result was the same though, Deng stopped all support after the fact.

Well the thing is despite democrats harping on about Trump is Hitler they seem to have really short term memory lik Biden because Trump was literally president for four years and none of that happened. In fact he actually has a proven track record unlike Harris. Under him there were no new wars and Taiwan kept it's mouth shut instead of escalation.

Therefore from a risk perspective you actually would want someone like him who you already know. It's really amazing how something like this is considered an insane take in America be cause media hysteria has fried their brain cells.a

Also I don't need Jai Hinds harping on how they run the world because Harris is Indian. It's bad enough already so I rather hear it from Trump who we are all used to.

Vote stuffing is rather tame compared literally trying to assassinate Trump, of course they're doing it.
But that's the best part, if Trump loses there's already ample evidence for democrat election fraud, and if Trump wins democrats will just colour revolution themselves.
It's win-win.
