They did not invade Hongkong the British had a 99 year lease and china had sovereignty.
You can not like that, or how reintegration was done, but it doesn’t make it an invasion.
I’m not going to engage in good faith if you are going to be histrionic and disingenuous.

who do you think is more likely to attack us, china or the usa?
if/when china invades democratic taiwan, what do you think we should do?

That is invalid framing. I do not think it is likely that china will attack us, I think the alliances we are in and hosting usa military shit makes it more likely, I think it is fairly likely (say >2% in 50 years) that we will declare war on china.

You tell me, if you’re confident in your opinion it must be because you’ve researched it a lot and are well informed about their military posture. why would they?
Be concrete, what would they gain? How much would it cost? How long would the war be? What would the attack look like? What forces would be involved?
I think you’re operating in the idealism land of china bad us good evil vs good is why war. Can you actually state your position and reasoning in material terms?
