"Starting a war to deflect from problems at home", what the heck would you call the invasion of Tibet then?

And while not literally a war, what purpose do you think the bellicose suppression of the fact of Taiwanese independence both domestically and abroad serves?

Some people seem so obsessed with the country they live in, they can't see the rest of the world properly. An over focus on domestic politics distorts everything with parochialism.



Not exactly, Tibet is a different type of thing, it’s more like chinas’s expansion rather than Xi wanting to deflect attention from his own problems. American wars weren’t for any purpose or even any benefit for the US and lots of money was wasted and stolen through military industrial complex.
