    Difference between defense and offense weapons is crucial. e.x. anti-ballistic weapons is most effective against missles. You could try to use them in attack, but without defense and radar whey will be easiest target for defendant. Although, they could be used to attack geound targets, but its like you will try to kill anyone with helmet or bulletproof vest, instead of firearms

    Throughout the Taiwan part of the debate Hinkle says that the US is trying to "turn China against Taiwan" (always has been, the CCP and Kuomintang never ended their war, and the KMT set up in Taiwan so...), that Taiwan is trying to disassociate with China (they already are disassociated from the PRC), that Taiwan has to declare independence (it doesn't, Taiwan has never been under the PRC's jurisdiction) and states Taiwan calls themselves China as supporting evidence that they're not independent (two countries cannot share the same geographic names, guess Korea, Congo, and Sudan are all singular states, German Democratic Republic? Federal Republic of Germany? Same country! The Berlin Wall was a lie!).
    I don't think Hinkle knows anything about Chinese history, hell, it doesn't seem like he has a good grasp on where Taiwan is. Ironically, for being such an anti-imperialist and anti-American imperialist in particular, Hinkle has an incredibly myopic uninformed view of the world like a stereotypical Bad American.

      Deconstructing the label "alpha posturing", to me it just seems like Vaush has discarded ego from his debates. He is open to being corrected, and not afraid to say when he is ignorant about something. When you don't need to protect your ego, because ego is not part of intellectually honest discourse, it can seem like fearlessness.
      When someone pretends to have the same lack of fear in discourse, yet definitely have a fragile ego that is all tied up with a need to never be wrong, then it looks weak sauce.

    Fun historical fact: The political entity of the PRC has never held the island of Taiwan in the country's history. Taiwan was an imperial possession of the Qing Dynasty which ruled China, then Japan invaded and occupied it as an imperial possession, then it was given to the Republic of China after WW2.

      Yet the PRC continues their unfounded claim. It seems pretty distasteful, too, as it echoes the logic of Israeli claims to Palestinian land based on cultural association rather than legal right. The ROC claim for the mainland feels similarly unfounded.

      @@JosephKerr27 I don't think that comparison holds 'cause Taiwan and Mainland have a history as a single country, but that country was technically a different one than the one that now inhabits Mainland. So on a legal level it seems reasonable to me too that the country called PRC has no claim over Taiwan (and vice versa). But since PRC and ROC are basically founded by the two factions contending for power over the single territory, it's predictable that each one claims the other.

      Similarly with Guantanomo Bay. Leaving aside the awful human rights stuff, most of that is a large naval base for US power projection, 'rented' off the Cubans quite some time ago in a compromise. We were afraid enough of Soviet warships 'in our backyard' and so the Cuban government did a security deal, of sorts. It meant that we stopped trying to overthrow the main island militarily, for the most part, as our security rationale was satisfied.
      Now its China, a growing economic power, and they have the same concerns about US naval and air bases inside a certain geography. Its rational behavior, like it or not.

      Just to mildly correct (more like expand on the matter) a little bit, Taiwan was not exactly given to ROC after WW2. ROC was put in charge of occupation after Japanese surrendered, and then on their own declared it was a part of China (Japan doesn't care, but it's an important historical detail for the Taiwanese independence movement). It's pretty important to understand that Taiwanese independence movement has always been divergent from mainland politics, and that the period of Japanese colonial rule (and then the 28 Incident and subsequent KMT martial law) did set Taiwan and Taiwanese identity on a part apart from that of the mainland. Taiwan has been separate from China for over a hundred and twenty years now, the situation is such that the PRC's claims are really well beyond even some Sudetenland level of bullshit justifications (and the KMT's claims on the mainland all the more comical if anyone there still takes them seriously).

    For people who don't know: for a country to be "officially" recognised as one i.e. a member of the UN, they require the UN security council to vote to confirm them as a member by a majority as well as having all 5 of the permanent members of the security council (USA, France, UK, Russia and China) to vote in favour so regardless of whether America recognises Taiwan as a country in an "official" manner doesn't matter because China will never be in favour of it. So Jackson's triade on America offically recognising Taiwan is irrelevant because it doesn't matter what America does in this regard it matters what the security council as whole does together.
