@AgreeableLandscape this was a very revealing analysis from a British military think tank where they basically admit that they lack the industrial base to keep up with Russia militarily, and China's industrial economy absolutely dwarfs Russia https://www.rusi.org/explore-our-research/publications/commentary/return-industrial-warfare/
@yogthos @AgreeableLandscape china's industrial economy actually also dwarfs the US, too. Industrial production, even when measured in US dollars, is over $3T. The US is around $2.2T...the difference is even more stark if one goes to price parity.
