How can a country intrude into its own territory? These separatists need to be put in their places.
So let me get this straight, a group of people overwhelmingly wish to separate, and the government tries to prevent them from doing that, and you don't think that's imperialism? I bet you don't feel the same about separatism in Catalonia, Donbas, Kurdistan, or the Zapatistas. Classic tankie logic: imperialism good when done by purported "communists."
do you know the history of how the KMT became the ROC or are you asking loaded questions without any knowledge of the history?
Countries change dumbass
settler-colonists remain settler-colonists. also if NATO support vanished overnight, reunification would be inevitable.
You do realize Xinjiang was started as a colony right?

China is a setter-colonist state...
