"...doomer boomer shit we are talking about you don't see any other resolution except escalation... "
I didn't offer a solution but an opinion based on centuries of historical evidence and of my personal experience. If I had a workable solution no doubt I'd be offered a Nobel Peace Prize.
What then is your solution that's guaranteed to work? Then you'll receive the Gong instead.
I'm not advocating for war, just describing the truth as I see it.
I would hope saying the truth about the tensions would encourage people to back down.. or at least isolate the most aggressive player out from the herd of peaceful participants.
The 'pretty picture' is that everyone defends their own trade lanes and we get on with life.
You're right I do enjoy thinking about war, it makes relationships clearer. I don't want war.

That's the problem no matter how you rationalize it.
