My view is it is a kind of reaction probe, a real weather balloon that was allowed to drift over America to see how they would react. The Americans used side-winder missiles to shoot it down, they're very expensive weapons so I guess the Americans were angered by it. They showed the Chinese that they don't trust them at all. I thought it might be a better idea next time to shoot the balloons down with bullets if it is possible, that way it would be easier to look at the equipment when it lands on the ground and also it would be a measure to protect air corridors for airplanes. Any action that is perceived as hostile could erode diplomatic ties between the two nations.
If the leader of China Xi Jinping came to my home, I would pour him the same coffee as Joe Biden. I have no hate towards either of them. They wouldn't come to my home though, I'm just an ordinary guy. I'm not important enough for anyone to visit me. I live here in my small home with my small family.
