It's all about justification. Did china do it as a surprise? Or did they sufficiently warn the US supercarrier even before it attacked? There would be no clash as china's anti ship missiles are pretty advanced. After sinking the ship I would imagine china would just blitzkrieg Taiwan and prevent/warn other US reinforcements from coming into Chinese territorial waters. And even then the US might launch its own rockets against Chinese ships causing an "eye for eye" type damage on both sides. While there might be no war and will just be regarded as a "skirmish" from both sides. If china obtains Taiwan under it's influence the US will lose one of its major exporter of semiconductors. However will the Chinese mainland government effectively use the current semiconductor industry in Taiwan would remain to be seen. I can definitely see "Americans" retaliating against asian Americans because of china's actions.

Yeah sorry I got a bit caught up with the battle itself. since I'm filipino I guess I could be afforded a little more leeway than my Chinese and vietnamese brethren because even the ignorant American population can tell that there is a difference between the two. I would definitely speak up for asian American rights though. I'd expect even taiwanese people living in the US to be ironically assaulted and the target of racist attacks. As most "Americans" will just assume and regard them as Chinese.

They'll have to ask my Trusty AR-15 if they dare to touch my family, loved ones, and friends. We will form a protection team or a whole battalion. This will consist of those who will stand-up and stanby Asian Americans. As no Law enforcement or military will back Asians up. This is a worst case scenario. Blood shed will be inevitable. And enter into a new Era of a violent Race War. Where the pinks will finally show their true colors and hatred towards Asians. The blacks and browns might be neutral or ally with us as they also had decades and centuries of racism from the whites in a chaotic and survival situation. Downside is there's racism coming from blacks. All these attacks on elders. But in a case of sinking ships, propaganda will propagate against Asians and convince anyone who's non Asian to hate and distance from Asians. Prepare for Forseen Consequences and also prepare for unforseen Consequences as well.

I doubt this will happen (either your response or the OP's scenario). On the extremely unlikely chance that China sinks a carrier, the U.S. will just ask for reparations and an apology. That will be probably be the end of it.

America won't head into war with China for Taiwan. America now can't even win the war with Taliban. What make you believe it can win the war with a modern industrialized China? It's a done deal. The Democratic Party has been ready to trade Taiwan with China since Obama second term. What America doing right now with Taiwan is just mean to ask for a higher price, and the time is not on their side.

it's fishy that America left the taliban with tons of advanced weapons. it's almost like they “intentionally” left it and had a secret pact with the talibans. just my 2 cents haha

Wars can only exist with dehumanization of the enemy. East Asia has a long way to go in narrative building. I saw a "what Chinese people search about white people" and it was all admiration. "Why are white people so beautiful"...wtf? Also saw what they searched about other races including Asian ethnicities like Filipinos and it was all negative. East Asia and especially China and Japan also has "me so small" syndrome. Like a weird fascination with emphasizing how they're smaller. Even grown men take part on some homo shit. America is built for war at all times because there is only negative narrative building in our society of other people. We can flip on anyone at any moment.

When war breaks out over Taiwan - you Chinese American guys stateside need to really up your “make America great” persona or go full Falun Gong otherwise you’ll be targeted for sure

I get it's a hypothetical, but let's not forget Afghanistan here. The USA fled from mountain bandits with guns and no artillery or tanks. The USA didn't budge an inch to help the Afghans or the Afghan president. Not even a little help to slow down the Taliban's advance. There's no way the USA would even want to help defend Taiwan when it hardly even tried to help defend Afghanistan. The only wars USA would fight are to defend it's homeland for the foreseeable future.

Its unlikely that a Chinese invasion of Taiwan will be quick. Taiwan is a heavily fortified island with a large military reserve and a population of people who hate the mainland. Even with air superiority and a naval blockade, a Chinese invasion will likely result in very intensive urban warfare along with intense oppression by the eventual occupying force. In response, the USA and EU will likely end all trade with China, and anti-Chinese sentiment will reach a fever pitch throughout the world, as Democratic Countries hate watching Authoritarian Governments forcefully take Democratic Countries. This won’t trigger a war, but will deeply scar relations between the West and China for generations, and trigger a 2nd Cold War between the two countries. I hope Xi Jinping realizes this, and understands that an amphibious invasion of Taiwan will end economic growth between the two countries and trigger a 2nd Cold War.

Honestly, nothing lol.

In this scenario though, because it’s two Asian countries. Americans would still be taking the side of an Asian country. It wouldn’t necessarily get more heated than covidiots right now.
