"I don't hate the Chinese people, I just hate the Chinese government"
What's wrong with that?
That is a legitimate position to have, hating Jewish people is an antisemite/n*zi thing to do, but disagreeing with the Israeli government's decisions, is not.
And is, just as the position you've described facetiously, a completely acceptable posture to have.
well the GP thread is removed now so it's hard to see my point now. The position I described is facetious because people who voice that position don't accept that position and instead really advocate for the mass indiscriminate killing of Chinese people as was the case here.
What if Xi has faster hypersonic missiles?
Depends on whether the launch sites get hit before launching, this part of MAD is well understood. You just need survivability enough for a second strike (or early warning enough to render it moot).
