    Because in a sea of massive uncertainty and chaos that’s around us today, China invading Taiwan in the middle of this makes the most sense out of anything that’s happening right now. It makes so much sense, that everyone has collectively realized it would be stupid for China not to invade Taiwan right now.

    I mean, it’s really, really bad for the world, but it would be stupid if they didn’t do it and take advantage of what’s happening everywhere.

      China taking Taiwan makes zero sense. It’s a peaceful island next to gigantic mainland China and they can easily coexist like this

          Any time. And they probably know that if they start warring against the peaceful island, the worlds perspective on them changes for good. Tibet was already bad, but they didn’t have the means to spread their message like today and China got away with it.

            And yet China is doing its new 5 year plan and that involves changing its language on Taiwan from “resolutely oppose” to “resolutely fight against” Taiwan.
