Things will change in the world with Biden, or whomever they replace him with, in the White House. China will have the green light to bring the blessings of Maoist culture to the world.
Number one on China’s wish list will probably be Taiwan. The island knows this and is doing all it can to prepare for the violent acquisition that China has in mind. For a few million dollars China can get Biden to relocate all American military assets to a more important place such as shielding the Island of Maui from a rumored invasion by Kamehameha III. With America standing down I can’t think of any realistic place that Taiwan can turn for help. I would forecast an attempt to overrun the island sometime during the Biden administration, sooner rather than later.
South Korea will probably be number three, only because the Himalayan mountains stand between China and India. They need to get over their hatred for Japan because their only hope in a Biden world is to have a strong ally close by. If you remember any of your pre-Progressive* history, South Korea and the United States were well on their way to beating the nonsense out of North Korea until China decided to send in its human wave attacks. China has long looked at Korea as a vassal state and will want to reestablish that in the south.
Southeast Asia is going to become a war zone. China will try to roll them up while Biden is on the payroll. One of the big reasons in oil. The South China Sea has a wealth of petroleum resources waiting to be extracted. I promise you that China will not be putting any wasted effort into renewables or green deals. That is for countries they want to see weakened.
After securing the Pacific rim China will move southwest to the subcontinent. India has the world’s the second largest population after China. They are a nuclear power and are moving into world status. They are a threat to the hegemony of China and China knows it. India needs to start a draft and get on a war footing. They are already part way there. A shooting war is in progress in the Himalayas. So far it is small incidents but it is very real. To their west is Pakistan and there is a lot of disputed territory. Picture the temptation to start something while the Democrats are busy moving the political generals back into position and returning our military to third world status.
The Middle East is a big question mark. Trump has gone a long way toward convincing the Muslim countries that their real enemy is not Israel but Iran. Trump has made giant steps but Trump will no longer be around. Instead you will have Uncle Joe who was part of the deal that shipped pallets of cash to Iran to try to buy them off.
Sub-Sahara Africa and Latin America have already been infiltrated by the Chinese. Most of it has been in the form of economic aid and loans but the strange thing about loans is that they come due.

Welcome to Varied Expressions of Worship
Welcome to Varied Expressions of Worship
This blog will be written from an orthodox Christian point of view. There may be some topic that is out of bounds, but at present I don't know what it will be. Politics is a part of life. Theology and philosophy are disciplines that we all participate in even if we don't think so. The Bible has a lot to say about economics. How about self defense? Is war ethical? Think of all the things that someone tells you we should not touch and let's give it a try. Everything that is a part of life should be an expression of worship.
Keep it courteous and be kind to those less blessed than you, but by all means don't worry about agreeing. We learn more when we get backed into a corner.
