>It will rather be a long series of proxy wars in which the West gradually loses its influence.
You underestimate the power of the dark side. The Chinese may not me that insane, but you presume Americans are reasonable, sane people. Well I can assure you sir that I'm the sanest person I've ever met, and even I would sacrifice the world to avoid losing to Chicoms. There is no life after the U.S. surrenders, not for me, *not for you*.
>The leaders don't have to win elections and appease the ignorant masses.
You still think America is run by elected leaders? Did you see our last two presidests?
>They'll gradually take over everything anyway.
How can you possibly say this and not be joking?
>Nature quickly regrows.
Nature has time, a failing communist regime does not.
