They understand perfectly well 'China' as a habitat is fucked even though they appear incapable of understanding that it's their behaviour which led to its ruin. All this resource extraction from Africa and the oceans etc. is to keep China on life support and build up what parts of it they can so to withstand what comes in the future. Parts of the ship can fall apart and begin to sink, but if their heads are kept above water then they're fine with it.
Meanwhile, they're working to take over Australia and move the elite down here to make a new China altogether. Initially, they wanted to take America but that's blown, so they're shifting priorities to AU/NZ, Australia in particular. And yet Trump is in the perfect position to establish a new Trumpian client state down here but he's too busy fucking around with the Middle East and his precious Jews (or finally killing off the fucking neocons) to wall America off due east and take over the Pacific with us instead of letting it go to China.
