Could you elaborate more on why China is a hostile military power?

  The very question indicates that we live in different universes, and in your China never threatens Taiwan with violent reattachment nor plays provocation games with military jets.

    And US on the other hand, never waged any war?

    IDK why I cannot reply directly to you, but I am not even an American. And China has about as much right to govern Taiwan as the Habsburg-Lothringen dynasty to govern Czechia. But you do not seem to deny that China acts in a hostile way towards Taiwan. You switched to "someone else has a dirty conscience too" defense.

      For the record I'm saying "US is far more dirtier" not "someone else has a dirty conscience too", that's a pretty good defense IMHO, you see, somebody else in this post suggested US should stick a military/naval base in Taiwan, what do you think? "you do not seem to deny that ...", I didn't deny it immediately since it's a bit far fetched to argue comparing to the previous paragraph, we even bombed a small island with no people for twenty years(keyword: Second Taiwan Strait Crisis), but that's history, does Xi want Taiwan back? of course, does Xi want to go down as a tyrant? of course not, look at history, we got HK and Macau back, peacefully, remember that. On the other hand, recently, Taiwan government refused vaccines from China, I think they really went too far.
