Not a word from big bad Chyna.
His moves on their allies Venezuela and Iran made a big point. FAFO
This is the diplomacy the Chinks respect

Tough to conduct a war with no energy (oil).

China got its oil from Venezuela and Iran. Even a TDS riddled twink like yourself can see how weak China looks to its allies.

China isn’t “silent”—they’re calculating. They don’t react emotionally or publicly because they don’t need to. They’re watching how far things escalate, securing their energy, and positioning themselves for whatever comes next. That’s how they operate.
And this isn’t “the kind of diplomacy they respect.” China doesn’t respect unpredictability or public strong-arming—they exploit it. What they respond to is stability, leverage, and long-term positioning. Moves like this don’t earn respect; they create openings.
What’s actually concerning is the confidence behind your comment. This isn’t a simple show of strength—it’s a situation involving global oil flow, major trade routes, and countries that don’t respond predictably under pressure. Misreading that as “they respect this” is a serious oversimplification.
And reducing it to slogans ignores the real risk: escalation here doesn’t stay contained. It hits economies, alliances, and stability far beyond the original move.
This isn’t something to celebrate or joke about. It’s a high-stakes situation with consequences that don’t care about anyone’s political side.
Not an SEC football game.

China has been basically quiet during the whole Russo-Ukrainian war, and Russia is its biggest ally.
China is quietly moving forward with its 2027 plans while the world is distracted. We can not and I assume have not lost track of this.
The issues with oil now are definitely impacting them, despite having very diversified oil suppliers. They import over 20% of the world's exports. Russia, Saudi Arabia, Malaysia, Iraq, Oman, UAE, Brazil, and Kuwait all account for more than 100 million BPY in oil exported to China.
This supply shock is an excellent laboratory to watch how they react. How long will they wait to tap their billion-barrel reserve for example?
Their silence and inaction for the last 4 years, and now, is a testament to how focused they are on Taiwan. The fracturing of the West is likely a benefit to them. The oil shock is giving them a dry run. We should not be counting them out and dancing on their grave.
I personally would be throwing money at TSMC to get them to up their game in the US. There are three countries critical to leading-edge semiconductor manufacturing: Taiwan, the US, and the Netherlands. We can't afford for China to take the manufacturing side. We can do it by holding part of the manufacturing side ourselves and/or preventing China from taking Taiwan.
