Why is that the common thinking, China has not even invaded a country for centuries. While the West particularly the USA have destroyed a lot of countries. Taiwan is even part of China since it is a rebel province. I really am curious why this idea is widespread in the USA.
The Chinese government calling an event the "Peaceful Liberation of Tibet" doesn't negate many others in the world calling the same event the "Chinese invasion of Tibet".
Rinse, Repeat.

China attempted to invade Taiwan several times last century, they just didn't have the naval capability to take even Kinmen.
They are two separate countries now, unless you think North/South Korea are the same, Russia/Ukraine, etc.

You should open a history book. Or two.

I find it hard to believe this comment was made in good faith.

China invaded Vietnam in 1979. In response to Vietnam invading Cambodia, to be fair. But that's still an invasion in my book.

It is my understanding that mainland China is the rebel province ;)
