Thanks. Looks like China must step up the softpower game and fill the void but due to legality reasons some gaps may be harder to fill than others.

Ah, they can make "Grave of the Fireflies II" after they get run through by China! Nothing brings out the emotions needed for a good anime than post-war suffering.
Personally, I disagree with much of the somewhat one-sided pro-Western script, and lean toward a blockade scenario, but I would like to hear more constructive criticism and argumentation, not just "Retarded video"
Literal Pro-Ukrainian YouTube Channel. If you want people to maybe comment then provide a summary of the video in a shorter form. I don’t know why you expect people to waste an entire hour listening to a channel that touts Pro-Ukrainian galactic spinning. When everyone knows Ukraine is going to lose.
the average person has no conception of how any modern weapon even works, nor do they really care to know. the point of a video such as this is not to elucidate you on military affairs but to start acclimatizing people to the very idea that ww3 will happen and to inform them who the 'good guys' and 'bad guys' are. painting your side as obviously winning is the surest way to recruit people onto your side, because everybody wants to be on the winning team.
the morality will always be rationalized after the fact.

In short, there's something like China immediately launching strikes on American bases in Guam and Japan, like Pearl Harbor. A dubious topic, which is why I posted the video for constructive criticism. Very optimistic for the defenders. very little about drones, not said about sea drones, long-range drones, drones of the uterus that can be anywhere, both as a diversion and as a method of attack. 50k Chinese? why not 5 million? airborne, helicopter landings, landings on civilian small ships and large tankers (zergrash). separately - several fronts will open - Korean, Philippine, Baltic. I find this video very interesting and informative, but very "limited" in its assessments.
Next time, provide a detail summary if you find the video interesting instead of wasting everyone’s time.
I don't think there's any constructive criticism to be found in this video. I admit that I couldn't stomach too much of it, but it seems like pure fantasy that ignores most of the realities surrounding a Taiwan conflict. Sure, it shares most of these flaws with the scenarios set by other Western analysts, but that's more a condemnation than it is an excuse. My general rule of thumb about this kind of scenario is that if it cannot understand that China will attack Taiwan when a red line is crossed, then it's not going to be worthless.
