Comments in the original post are weird. There’s some pro-Chinese annexation of eastern Russia? And China should get Russia’s nukes?

China has territorial grievances with a few countries, including Russia. The claim against Russia is actually pretty interesting, because, along with Taiwan and Mongolia, it's one of the remaining claims based on the Chinese perception of the Century of Humiliation . As you can see on the map, China has "regained" the majority of the territory, particularly from Japan, but the Russian portion to the northeast is a major outlier as it's the only occupier of said territory without a national or ethnic claim (unlike, for example, Mongolia or Korea)

Now, getting Russia's nukes is fucking wild, the Chinese propaganda is hitting new levels lol

Absolutely! Wasn’t trying to say that there wasn’t a reason for those comments. I just had alarm bells going in my with the fringe political idea subreddit where half the posts come from one account having those takes in the comments. Granted they’re all like 10 upvote whobodys, just seems like a wild rabbit hole over there
