Yeah our media tends to do that to rage bait. I pointed this out once and someone just told me that it’s still the people’s fault for their reading comprehension.

I just don’t get this whole thing. I get china wants to control the area. Why? Seriously. Are they planning on annexing in the area? If not, why are they such assholes in the area?
Just as the Hans aggressively consider Tibet as part of China, they have huge territorial and resource interests to the area, besides the name South China Sea literally reinforcing their extreme sense of entitlement.

Just start sinking them and see how long it takes for the CCP to realize its maritime militia is shrinking. Do it away from the fishing areas or seize the poison first but they’re going to keep pushing until they’re met with suitable force.
