China doesn't even have water to power themselves or feed themselves anymore. I'm not worried about them making a space station, they can hardly make computer chips.

They already made the space station, it’s just not fully functional, but it’s like 95% there

There’s a pretty gnarly precedent for what a growing superpower does when it started running out of resources. It’s a formula for Imperialism.

China's pretty decent at making chips. They just don't build the tooling or do most of their own designs yet. But, if they could get the tooling and designs, their manufacturing capabilities are great.
