U.S. intelligence shows that China has conducted “human testing” on members of the People’s Liberation Army in hope of developing soldiers with “biologically enhanced capabilities,” the top U.S. intelligence official said Friday.
2020 is a helluva ride folks, a helluva ride.

Anyone find a better source?
EDIT: Ah, it is the nutcase John Ratcliffe saying this. So probably not true.
Can’t wait for the US Intelligence Community to slip up and reveal our super soldiers in 10 years, and also reveal that they were projecting and lying about China the whole time
reveal that they were projecting […] the whole time
:this:
Considering past experiences, I now genuinely believe the y*nks have been trying their hand at this and it is still a secret because they either have not succeeded yet or they have and are using them for wetwork.
There’s a zero percent chance we didn’t try this decades ago at the very least
Antifa supersoldier time
master chief is real and hes chinese
lol someone’s been playing too much MGS, is that you Kojima? “Biologically enhanced supersoldiers” is pretty much a sci-fi trope for at least 2 decades now and the credibility of this “US Intelligence” is pretty much zero.
They make these shitty claims because the truth is harsher to admit. What China is likely doing instead is using human exoeskeletons which they’ve openly shown and bragged about. Human genetic enhancement is just not going to be practical and it is extremely questionable to worry about it at this point.
In fact articles like this are an attempt at gaslighting, blatent statements like this make it clear
Specifically, the scholars explored Chinese research using the gene-editing tool CRISPR, short for “clusters of regularly interspaced short palindromic repeats.” CRISPR has been used to treat genetic diseases and modify plants, but Western scientists consider it unethical to seek to manipulate genes to boost the performance of healthy people.
Obviously only the great western scientists views matters and of course only we are morally right. See the evil immoral Chinese wants to develop “genetic” weapons!1!1!!! What are the chances the US wouldn’t use this technology if given the chance and the necessity like an actual war with someone armed with more than mountain goats anyway?
There are no sources to this article which is reporting an oped posted on the fucking Wall Street Journal other than US own propaganda machine, WTF is this?
I call its approach of economic espionage “rob, replicate and replace.” China robs U.S. companies of their intellectual property, replicates the technology, and then replaces the U.S. firms in the global marketplace.
There is no read to read that nonsense oped which is worst than your average reddit poster.

“Center for a New American Security” I think a fucking 5 yo could come up with a less shameless name. I too would love Chinese supersoldiers, but this is just sad bait, don’t fall for this shit guys.
