Think of what it will mean for OUR society.
“But sir - a war with America will cost us at least 10 million men! - Oh, right.”
As I have said elsewhere, they’re *already* looking for a short, ultra-high-intensity conventional war to bleed off excess male population *and* quell the rising internal unrest. Direct war with the US is out because they’d lose most of their hard currency income... so they’ve been saber rattling with all their neighbors. Their latest attempt was war with India over their common border, but the Indians have been doing a great job of holding their territory while depriving the Chinese of the mass troop casualties they really want and still repulsing their troops.
