It is interesting to get your take on the Cold War between China and the USA.

I would add something different to what Vox Day has said on China Demographics.

The reason why they might want a hot war is the Demographics. They are running out of time. They might be aggressive to try and get power before it all collapses. To steal the women of other countries and kill off some of their men. It will not work only a patch and note would not solve the underlining problems.

This is the pre cold war way nations used to try and to be honest it has rarely worked out for any nation. Just look for example at Europe after WW1.
The USA nuclear threat might make this impossible.
Korea, Taiwan, Australia and Indochina (Vietnam, Laos, and Cambodia) would be potential targets that China could takeover and improve their demographics in the short term if not for the US.
Japan is going to rearm and only need air and navel to be impossible.
India will also be impossible.
As for Africa will not help their demographics and they will not breed with the Africans.

In the long term the current CCP is doom and not China or the Chinese people.
Even if they force women breeding, pay women to have kids or putting Chinese embryos into foreign women.

I can see them solving the demographic but unlike the west it is a horrible ways.

The west will unfortunately I think it will take a cold winter to reverse (a lot of death during to nature) the demographic trends.

First would be to kill off the old people like the Cultural Revolution and start a new wave of bloody terror.

Second is China having another civil war.

This has been something that during different periods of China goes through.

The old people will suffer and it will not be safe to leave the house, so women they will turn back to tradition ways.

This is a nightmare scenario but the history of China show this time after time. Ming, Qing and CCP are all bloody periods.
This would be the end of their global trade, expansion and sea power. The least of the worries to those that would suffer during the Bloody period.

I would say pray that the solution is peaceful and this does not happen.
