This is for strictly mildly interesting material. If it's too interesting, it doesn't belong. If it's not interesting, it doesn't belong.
This is obviously an objective criteria, so the mods are always right. Or maybe mildly right? Ahh.. what do we know?
Just post some stuff and don't spam.

Tbf, China's been pushing for military control across the entire South China Sea, threatening the territorial waters of neighboring countries. Plus they've been a constant threat to Taiwan, and might still try to invade them in the next few years.
That's not to belittle the provlems that the US has, just pointing out that China's hands aren't clean, they're just at a smaller scale and better at framing it
