not again jesus christ
im going to watch a bunch of the people around me turn into racist fools over a fucking weather balloon AGAIN holy fucking hell white peoples are dumb.
Here we go again.
I hope China has given consideration to a fleet of such balloons for use in a conflict with the US, totally unarmed or equipped obviously but apparently westerners cannot help themselves but shoot them down, wasting valuable and expensive munitions on pointless game. They could print in Chinese and English on each one “Chinese spy balloon, secret CCP asset, return to China if found” and these western fools would waste missile after missile on them.
What’s interesting to me is how much trouble the US is giving the MSS by apparently finding groups in China everywhere of random businesses and hobbyists that they give sensors and cameras to via front groups which report back to US spy agencies and are capable of disrupting Chinese networks and conducting cyber attacks. It’s a real damn problem and I worry about if they can’t get a lid on it what it means to China in a confrontation with the US because those type of capabilities are the US trump card in a war they can’t otherwise hope to win. At the same time the US continues to baselessly assert, without an ounce of evidence of intent or capability that everything Chinese is a threat. Perhaps because they know the opposite is true, everything American sent to China is a potential threat and many things sent there actually are done so as a threat. From Cisco networking equipment with hardware NSA spy and command implants to all of these revelations all over China of this worrying stuff given for free by all these front groups which is the work of foreign intelligence.
imagine if this was all just testing to see how many resources China could make the US waste before they unveil a matrix-balloon that does some fancy bending shit and no missiles can ever seem to take it out
my thoughts exactly lmao
