A months-long standoff between Chinese and Malaysian vessels in disputed waters in the South China Sea over oil exploration has drawn US, Chinese and Australian warships, according to reports.

China has concentration camps (called "education camp...with mirador and electrified wire all around it) as the Nazi had.

China want to be the be the #1 in all critical sciences which means dominating the world as Hitler wanted.

Xi-Jim ping said in 2015 the world have to see the superiority of the Chinese race, as Hitler called the superiority of the Aryan race.

China annex the South China Sea, as Hitler annexed Austria.

Nobody wanted to stop Hitler after that. This embolden him to go farther. If we don't stop China now we shall have the same result and world War 3. Bingo!

There are racial supremacists of all races and ethnicities. I would say Jac is correct. I have seen it for myself in the very heart of Beijing.

Why are you so mean to Jac anyway? Mommy did not bring your favorite, brownies made with CBD oil, down to you in the basement?

"There are racial supremacists of all races and ethnicities..." Huh?

Therefore every potential enemy of America is Hitler?

It would help if amateur historians broadened their horizons beyond what happened in Germany in the 1930s.
