This is a misreading of history. China was truly and properly fucked for centuries by Western powers and the Japanese. A lot of what we read as aggression stems from a deep desire to avoid the humiliation of the Opium Wars again. The West has forgotten about them but China, with the reminder of Hong Kong right there, certainly has not.

China is free to demonstrate it's support of equality and fair treatment of other countries by not threatening or attacking Taiwan. Or China can continue to engage in propaganda in an attempt to make itself feel better about its military belligerence.

Hmm, what does China fear Taiwan is about to do to it?
