The US is going to be in a hot war with China within 10-15 years. The only way to avoid this is to crush the Chinese economy through trade wars, forcible containment of Chinese expansion (e.g. Huawei ban, undermine belt and road), and covert ops - and that may not work. China is clearly an enemy of the US and is on the cusp of becoming an existential threat. Forget about breaking up big tech, is it time to start thinking about breaking up China?

This is clearly an extreme position, but how extreme do you think it will be in 5 years?

I think if China engages in military conflict with the US it will be in the style of death by a thousand pinpricks, each not warranting a heavy deployment.
