Well, the problem is in this case the gold China has been buying is from the West because what they are accumulating is past what they can mine out, plus China does not have any reputable refineries.

I don't know why you retards keep thinking that the US military is anything but a giant flexing tool. We're never going to war with any developed nation for the rest of our lives until someone deploys a nuclear warhead. No other nation is stupid enough to actively go to war with us for any reason other than provoking us to send them money as a ransom to not go to war. No other country on this earth trains their military for engagements with the US other than China and Russia. If we were to go to war and force countries to adopt our dollar, they would treat us as tyrants almost instantly and nothing could be done to stop it. You think that bombing London will convince the people of the UK to suddenly start trading USD in order to not die? Of course not. The people would do everything in their power to simply not be bombed next while condemning the US with all of their hearts. So-on so-forth until every major country on the earth pretty much has uniform blockades on all US trade except for Canada and Mexico.

Alright mother fucker, let me break it down for you. The US spends more on the military than the next top 10 countries combined. We have 11 aircraft carriers with enough firepower on them to blow any country on earth to high heaven. Aside from a single aircraft carrier owned by the French, we are the only one to have nuclear powered carriers. To put that into perspective, China has two active carriers, and one them was Soviet made. Neither of them are nuclear powered, and neither of them have superior launching capabilities that ours have. The US has nearly more military aircraft than China and Russia combined, with absolutely superior combat capabilities. Our soldiers in both the Army and Marine Corps have more advanced equipment than any other country on earth. Military training in the west is superior in every way to that of the training done in the east. We have a massive fleet of drones capable of destroying a target without even needing boots on the ground. As someone in the military that can confirm all of this, we would absolutely fucking stomp that communist piece of shit whinnie the poo looking mother fucker into an entirely different dimension. This goes without saying that every other western nation would also be on our side, so take the US military power and combine it with some of other most powerful, well equipped, and best trained military programs on earth and you have a force that could not only squeeze every last bit of life out of that dog shit communist shit hole, but could probably go to an alien planet and destroy their entire civilization.

We fight and bicker with each other when it comes to domestic issues, but once some foreign faggots try to fuck with us, we will do everything in our power to womp their petty asses into the mud. White, black, mexican, asian, it doesn't matter. Americans team up during times of war to create the most powerful force that has ever existed on this country. We're a nation that was built on nothing but blood and war, and have become the most powerful nation in the world in less than 250 years because of it.

Yeah, my point exactly. Vietnam scored a victory for Communism in the Vietnam War, where they drove out an overwhelmingly superior military force simply through defiance and tenacity. The US did not win that war. It is literally a military strategic loss. If war was based on how many people you killed, you'd have a point, but that explicitly was the reason why the Vietnamese were so vehemently driven to wipe out US presence. Ho Chi Minh led his people to a victory against the US at massive expense.

You are wildly overselling the US's potency in this war. The Khmer Rouge and all of those other unsupported paramilitary groups put a massive death toll on their forces and the total end toll was almost even. The US didn't singularly go to war with the entirety of North Vietnam, they were fighting alongside South Vietnamese and Koreans against North Vietnam and China. And yet the toll wound up nearly even, while they were still losing ground and had hundreds of thousands of injured American soldiers brought home as amputees. If the war continued, the US death toll would continue to shoot up, and the only """gain""" would be obliterating a bunch of rice farmers at the expense of more than a hundred thousand American lives. Again, if war was based on k/d ratio, you'd be totally correct. The US had the best k/d in that war. But it's not, and the North Vietnamese took such a vicious chunk out of the South Vietnamese coalition through that war that it was clear that winning the war would be impossible without utterly unacceptable losses, and to the North Vietnamese, literally any count of losses would be considered acceptable.

We're an unstoppable force that will never be put into a scenario where we'll need to be stopped. War games are all theoreticals. Trade wars and technological battles are 100% of inter-country engagements in the future. All of these planes are sitting in hangars waiting to be unleashed on countries that will never actively invite their doom, and will find political means to move around that. You can harp on about how our F-22's are the fastest and greatest aircraft on the planet, but if they never actually fight another aircraft that isn't just some sandnigger's biplane with a handgun strapped to the bottom, it's a multibillion dollar trophy. Military might in 2020 and forward is literally a tool solely meant to flex one's ability to produce arms for battle, and will never actually have merit until the first nuke drops, which will also never happen until some crackpot country decides it wants to end humanity as a collective.

It was in no way a turning point beyond addressing the focus that land wars are almost invariably useless (mostly because without imperialism, there is nothing to gain or prevent) and that the only way to actually pressure the USSR into conceding is via nuclear arms race, which the US won solely by economic factors. The US factually only """won""" the Cold War thanks to the fact that they were fighting a country that was still infrastructurally and economically recovering from wounds in WW2 in an ideological battle funneled by economics and infrastructure. The spread of Communism "ended" with the USSR capitulating, but the Cold War never officially ended, and several wars during the Cold War were simply left at ceasefires that are still active to this day.

It was "yes way" a turning point. The problem is that successfully stopping a domino effect means that you're never able to prove that it ever existed. So small minded fags such as yourself are able to say there was never a problem, since the US succeeded in its concerted efforts to contain the growing spread of communism worldwide. And it was quite a concerted effort. South America, Asia, Africa, Europe, literally everywhere, tons of money and manpower poured into helicopter rides, CIA backed coups and nation building.

I literally said explicitly this, and you are in vehement denial. Military moves did nothing. Vietnam meant nothing. The turning point was a purely economic one.

In order to leverage your bountiful resources... and ensure that the enemy doesn't eventually make their way to your doorstep or starve you through global sanctions... you have to contain them at the point of a sword. And through espionage. Which is precisely what we did. Seriously, think a little bigger, that's what the politicians of that era did. Average citizen retards did not understand the implications of Vietnam at all.

In a globalized world, in a global war between two global superpowers, the entire battlefield is transformed. In a war, when you manage to pin your enemy down to a single front and drain them of men, time, and resources for years and years, to the point where they can't focus elsewhere, that's considered a strategic victory.

Espionage, yes. We found out exactly where Russia was weakest and attacked them there. Through their haphazard and hasty economy, we baited them into a war of economies, and they lost. Our massive military intervention did nothing to stem their fervor, and in fact Ho Chi Minh's leadership during the war served to viciously strengthen their passion towards Communist ideals for decades. The term "The pen is mightier than the sword" doesn't mean that you can write out wars, it means that piling bodies doesn't secure a victory the way that strategies and goals do. You could kill every single Vietnamese on the planet, North or South, and still have lost the war if Communism continued to spread, which it did.

This is very nice poetic expression of the concept of a war, but you still seem to fail to realize that the obscene loss of life and resources in Vietnam was worthless for the Cold War efforts. I am telling you that you fail to understand why the US factually lost the Vietnam War and why we need to pay attention to these factors in the future. A war is defined by strategic objectives and goals, not how many peasants you kill in the process. A show of arms does not mean anything if you will never wind up using them. Having a nuclear stockpile strong enough to obliterate the solar system doesn't mean jack if you can't secure objectives in the process. Failing to understand this is why people who fellate the "power" of the US military do not understand why the US military is not relevant in international politics.

I have access to greater pools of research that point out that land wars did nothing to stem the tide of Communism in any way in history than you will ever find. The concept of a Pyrrhic victory also seems lost on you, considering the US-Vietnam War was explicitly a pyrrhic victory for the state of North Vietnam and the new Socialist Republic of Vietnam was formed as a result. In literally every single way, the Vietnam War was a loss for the US. The concept of it being a victory in any way for the US is mania at its best, and the closest you can argue is that tons of money was funneled into it and that contributed somewhat to the collapse of the USSR. But that remains ignorant to the exorbitantly higher costs associated with construction of nuclear facilities and the production of nuclear arms, which is literally the thing that brought the USSR to its knees. You are horribly overvaluing the cost of function in this war to the global Cold War effort, and I'm earnestly saying that you need to read up to understand what you're talking about. Repeating the same points with zero information beyond your personal emotional output does not make you any more correct.

No you're not, you're just spamming a lot of blog tier articles regarding the entire cold war. What does this have to do with what I specifically said?

> The primary evidence for the domino theory is the spread of communist rule in three Southeast Asian countries in 1975, following the communist takeover of Vietnam: South Vietnam (by the Viet Cong), Laos (by the Pathet Lao), and Cambodia (by the Khmer Rouge). It can further be argued that before they finished taking Vietnam prior to the 1950s, the communist campaigns did not succeed in Southeast Asia. Note the Malayan Emergency, the Hukbalahap Rebellion in the Philippines, and the increasing involvement with Communists by Sukarno of Indonesia from the late 1950s until he was deposed in 1967. All of these were unsuccessful Communist attempts to take over Southeast Asian countries which stalled when communist forces were still focused in Vietnam.

Blame it on our education. We are raised to think purely in numbers and not actually take the time to mentally ponder concepts. When we're taught about wars in schools, we're uniformly told the same propaganda concepts that help us identify "Good Guy", "Bad Guy", and "How many died?" and nothing else. When we have issues occur like everything that happened during several of our respective wars, a hasty answer is formed simply to help fit back into the "Good Guy", "Bad Guy", "How many died" mold so that, again, everything is a game of numbers. Our concepts of education are based in numbers. Our concepts of culture is based in numbers. We place dollar signs and economic values on anything that isn't a piece of art, and every art piece we praise come on a conveyor belt. Ankgor Wat isn't shown in any textbook short of University-level architecture and foreign language studies books. But you can sure bet you'll see the Eiffel Tower in every single book ever, because you can quantify it in simple numbers and values.

It was never under leadership of the EU and the project has been making great strides with the new director. There are no fusion projects of relevance to speak off in the US atm.

Dense plasma focus, the Navy's Polywell project, and General Fusion up in Canuckistan are all interesting fusion projects, don't meme. ITER's big benefit is that it's pretty much guaranteed to work, but it's still a decade late just from the siting debacle in the early 2000s.

You never said this, but whatever, point still stands that the US is not taking Fusion seriously, they even opted out in 2000 and then rejoined in 2006. This is a bad thing, considering it is the key to the future. No not "just 10 years off", probably a 100.
