I mean the CCP. I’m a bit concerned about a desperate government doing desperate things. War type things.

How would this affect the US food supply? Much of our food is imported from China, Mexico, etc. Will global shortages create shortages here?

I don’t know how war helps things if a country has just been devastated by a disaster that affects 10s or possibly 100s of millions. If Three Gorges fails we’re talking about recovery taking decades. Food production cut, huge population loss, etc. That’s not to say that nations haven’t made irrational decisions in the past.

But even without the dam’s failure, China is looking at huge loses from both the flooding and the virus this year.
