Have you considered that China would prefer to avoid violence when they consolidate the country? And that, maybe, all of this military hardware and funding might make peaceful reunification harder?
Whatever, I won’t convince libs that we shouldn’t be provoking China over Taiwan. Instead, I want you to think about the fact that Republicans are able to use this shit as leverage and now it’s going to be harder for refugees to receive asylum. For Taiwan. What the fuck?
It’s not China’s place to make that choice for Taiwan. If they want to entice Taiwan to join them voluntarily, well, they’ve done a pretty bad job showing how “beneficial” that would be when you look at Hong Kong.
Let me clarify; China will cut off trade and freedom of movement, begin blockading the straight, shut down banking and communications, etc. I doubt they’d land boots on the ground and they certainly wouldn’t bomb Taiwan.
At least, not until Taiwan starts using all those shiney new weapons with the expectation that they have the full support of the United States. Then there’d be an invasion.
At the end of the day, you need to choose between war and peace. And it seems Democrats are willing to fuck over asylum seekers for the chance to start another war.

“There won’t be an invasion until Taiwan reacts to literal acts of war”
Are America’s sanctions on Cuba and Venezuela acts of war? If you agree that they are then I’ll concede on that point.
Also you really don’t understand what imperialism is, do you? Imperialism is an economic structure used to extract superprofit from imperialized nations. Annexation and integration are fundamentally different, because China has no plans to turn Taiwan into a labor/resource colony.
When France colonized Algeria they didn’t declare Algerians to be French and grant them the full rights and privileges of French citizens. Get it?
Have you considered that China would prefer to avoid violence when they consolidate the country?
No shit.
But Tiwan wants China to fuck the fuck off. And hopefully if China ever pushes the issue, the Tiwan Straight seabed gains some new artificial reefs courtesy of the Chinese military.

Lol knew it
So shocking a country divided by civil war would want reunification! How sinister 🙄
Oh fuck off with your tankie bullshit. Nobody’s buying it.
I get it, China bad.

Have I considered that China would like for the people it invades to just roll over and accept their new masters instead of fighting back?
Yeah, I considered that. It seems likely that they would want that. I have yet to think of any good reason why they should get that wish, though.
Reunification would open up more opportunities for cooperation and development. That’s a pretty good reason.

Aside from some affordable housing issues, what’s wrong with Hong Kong?
*When they consolidate…*hold up right there tankie. I thought you type where all about fighting imperialism.
Imperialism is when people disagree with the CCP.
Peaceful reunification between two regions of the same country isnt imperialism you dork.
“We want to do it peacefully, but if you resist we’ll do it violently. This makes it not imperialism.”
Do you even listen to yourself?
China isn’t Russia. That just isn’t how this is going to go.
It’s literally what you said, dumbass. You said if Taiwan declares independence China will have no choice but to invade.
I did not use the word “invade”

Doubt.
That’s still fucking imperialism, bootlicker.
