      Hong Kong, the place leased to Britain (probably unfairly/forcibly given British history) and subsequently returned to China at the end of the lease?

      Edit-addendum: Also isn’t Taiwan still functionally sovereign? It was just the remnants of China’s old government pre-CPC. They’ve moved closer, voluntarily, to the PRC in recent years, especially with all the recent western aggression in the world in general.

      China has been acting like shit in Hong Kong, but it was originally Chinese territory. So I wouldn’t count that as imperialism.

      China’s behavior in the South China Sea is a much better example.

      If you think what China does to Muslims is bad you should see what Taiwan was like before China invaded. Seriously look up how they treated their criminals.

        That has no bearing on whether their actions were that of an imperialist.

        It’s wild that you think that China committing genocide is somehow a defense to literally anything.
