This has to be a clumsy attempt at a willfully deceptive comment, right? The aggressor starts the war, but the defender will not sit by idly. They must fight back. Do you somehow think only China will do this? The US is about to get its comeuppance in a very painful way.


> Kinda weird to call it this

You do realize how this began?


A growing trade deficit with China not respecting "intellectual property" and other such things?


You can't be serious...

It's like arguing against the expression "Putin's war in Ukraine" because Ukraine retaliated with drones.


Wikipedia calls it "China–United States trade war"... would this be thought to be inaccurate?


Wikipedia also calls Putin's war "Russo-Ukrainian War". I have no problem with either name. That's the point.
