This is a thread to discuss how a war around 2032 between the US and China would play out. I would encourage everyone to check out the wonderful related series on YouTube by Flat Circle History.
 
I assume that the conflict would break out as a gray war, with a quarantine of Taiwan by Chinese forces.
 
Is the empire, destroyed into three or four parts, at war with China? No, son, it's fantastic

The set of starting assumptions is required.

If it's merely a blockade, not an invasion, then justification for US involvement is even weaker than usual. On the other hand, blockade leave US with more time to plan their move, reach agreement with allies, ect.

No dictator endangers his power by starting a war unless he is desperate for economic reasons, for a dictator it is much safer to use propaganda to intimidate his neighbors and his own citizens without risking losing everything in a battle.

It was the fuel embargo decreed by the US government that provoked the attack on Pearl Harbor.

But this historical experience cannot be extrapolated to the current situation of the Chinese dictatorship. If its pharaonic system of production and distribution collapses, due to a misuse of the wise and well-tested international trade rules, there are only three possible outcomes: implosion, at the cost of enormous suffering of its own citizens, territorial expansion, at the cost of enormous war spending that would wipe out what was left of its economy, or freeze, pretending to negotiate while waiting for the fifth column to succeed in placing a cowardly president in the White House. Would China's economy hold up long enough?

Let no one expect a peaceful solution such as holding elections... Power has only two emotions: contempt and fear.
 
Indeed. The US should try to provoke this.
 
Would be interesting to see, how this thread would keep going without drifting into politics, but I’m afraid it‘s already too late …
