Well china currently has a larger population, but here's Noah asking us to make enough bullets to change that.



Just to put actual number into sight: that’s at least a billion people we are talking about. Even if a war happen 20 years from now and the US double its population while China has a population collapse, it’s still 400 million people++


The problem isn't the absolute nimber, it is the ratio of producers and consumers in general to consumers of food.


It's really about the number of young men of the age to be conscripted.


Need we fear a war of bullets with China? Is this not merely another diabolical plot to kill the remaining Boomers (the last American generation who know how to shoot guns and save money) by engaging them in a war of attrition with China's analogous elderly population?


noah is a prototypical 90's-era weeb who worships japan and absolutely despises china and chinese people in general.

i'm surprised in 2023 people aren't yet tired of this schtick. it's getting old.


What a beautiful dream Noah promises us all.
