In this episode, we unpack the explosive China-Japan diplomatic rift sparked by Prime Minister Takaichi Sanae's echo of past warnings: "A Taiwan crisis is a Japan crisis." What began as routine saber-rattling escalated wildly after Chinese Consul Xue Jian's deleted Twitter post threatening to "chop off her head," igniting nationalist fury on both sides and derailing Beijing's Japan thaw.

Drawing parallels to rogue diplomats like Lu Shaye's Crimea gaffes, we explore how Xi's wolf warrior push breeds uncontrolled fervor—mirroring Japan's 1931 Mukden Incident, where underlings hijacked policy for glory. Nationalism, meant as a tool, now drags the nation toward unintended escalations, from trade bans to fragile truces. Is Beijing's diplomacy a monster of its own making?
