1. Uyghurs ( Isis and extremist Muslim and separatist have enter into Xinjiang ) unlike the West and USA who are nicer to their potential terrorists, the Chinese took a rather extreme measure, please note they are an authoritarian government and they are not hiding it.
2. The Taiwan issue came about after the Tsai Ing-wen and DPP took over the Taiwanese government, the previous government under Mah Yin Jeou have no problems with the Chinese government. This is China's one China principle but the US version of it is called one China policy very different wording.
3. Surging investment into the military is to counter USA influence, every country have the right to do it. The USA military budget is to counter the up and coming Chinese as well, so I don't understand what you meant surging investment in military.
4. It will be quite uneasy talking about China's support for murderous regime because the greatest country in the world USA have supported murderous regime and allow it to flourish as long as American's interest is protected so maybe we don't talk to much about China and USA's history and their geopolitical ambitions.
5. I have been in Hong Kong since 2010 up till now, I went through and join the protest in 2014 and 2019. There is just too much foreign influence to destabilized Hong Kong, they created a HK version of patriot act just to protect Chinese interests. The 2019 protest went overboard, basically Hong Kong version of BLM. People with different political stance are ex communicated, families are separated, Children and protestors disown their parents publicly, one old man was set on fire because he had an argument with one protestor asking them to stop being violent.
1. Subjecting an entire ethnic group to mass incarceration, forced sterilization and a targeted destruction of their culture just because some terrorists shared their religion is excessive, even for an authoritarian country.
2. It is still mainland China which wants to forcibly "reunite" (read: annex) Taiwan while Taiwan just wants to be acknowledged and left alone. The CCP still holds a massive grudge against Taiwan out of ideological and historic reasons.
3. China's military spending increased by a much larger percentage than US or NATO military spending over the past 10-15 years. They are very clearly playing catch up and strive for their military to become America's match.
4. I never claimed that the United States were a "peaceful" nation.
Kusostare, on the other hand, disputed my notion that China is not as peaceful as they might look at first glance.
5. Can't really comment on the internal dynamics of HK, guess I'll take your word for it.
