Philosophy, on the other hand, is invisible, whether it is coming or going.
I don’t know about Korea and Taiwan, but that jet is pointed right into the same direction that a big sign with a “B” on it is pointing.
You don’t suppose it is coming here do you?
A sufficiently copious dose of bombast drenched in verbose writing is lethal to the truth.

True.
I kinda thought that a jet aircraft would be the pointy end of a philosophical discussion though.

Prolly alot of 1980's smuggled technology.
Every time one buys crap made in the PRC, you help fund their military/industrial complex.

A chance for the US military hawks to be banging the drum for more funding?
Stealth jets have radar-avoiding capabilities and China's J-20 will reportedly be able to reach the US territory of Guam carrying large missiles.
The People's Liberation Army is in the process of a major modernisation and having stealth fighter jets would enable it to rival US airpower in the Asia-Pacific.

We should blow them out of the sky.
Reason is valuable only when it performs against the wordless physical background of the universe.
