Ok, then why did the Ping Pong build mud piles

In any case, China's rising displeasure at the growing military ties between South Korea and the US manifested itself in the recent missile launches, because as China's Global Times stated all too clearly in an article overnight, "China’s latest missile test shows country can respond to aircraft carriers, THAAD." In other words, in addition to North Korea jawboning and threatening to blow up any strategic US asset in vicinity, as the NK ambassador told Sky News yesterday, now there's China too.

How did Xi Ping Pong get the Chinese military to harm us with China Sea mud piles when they really feared the THAAD?  I think the point to be made here is actual communist stupidity.
