    1. I’m sure I remember seeing NCD suggest this as the ultimate funny thing for China, a year ago. Glad to see Chinese social media likes our ideas.
    2. I hope it spreads to the point where tankies bend over backwards to defend this as not expansions at all, while somehow being on the side of both russia and China somehow.

      Calling it now: Russia has Siberia for 400 years and did dick with it. China can use Siberian resources better than Russia.

      It will always be about exploitation.

        and space. russia has struggled to build any population of note out east, whereas China has people ready to go and a few decades of belt-and-road construction as prep.

            iirc demographically, even after the one child policy and preference for boys for generations, the demographic split only went to 112 (male) to 100 women… which isn’t great no doubt but hardly a good reason to go north.

            the potential resource bounty and space on the other hand… no need to frame the issue as rapey

              This is a humorous shitposting community of degenerates, deplorables and malcontents, don’t tell me what to do. By the old gods and the new, I swear that no nubile virgins were involved in the making of this thread. Probably. Incels are just as welcome here as anyone else. You don’t even need pants in this club, but you do need a sense of the ridiculous.
