CCP Apologist, Victor Gao, insists there’s free speech in China, so I asked him for a demonstration— to criticise Xi. He couldn’t do it, couldn’t even admit he looks like a well-known bear🙃

There's been a lot of recent takes on China's ability to take Taiwan via amphibious invasion, much of it thought provoking. But one area I see most hand-waving over is the invader "throughput" dilemma. Even if your troops & equipment make it ashore, where do they go?

Such an important point. Writing has so much value for the individual as well as their audience (even if it is a small one)

People are writing long think-pieces trying to figure out wtf happened this decade. I can explain the whole decade in two photos.

On the left: 2010, on the right: 2019

The USMC ignores this argument at its peril. Going"all-in" on a new mission & structure to support it can be a good thing...if it works.
