Make money? Occupied Tibet and Sri Lanka would like to have a word.
Or the ongoing human rights abuse against the Uyghurs in Xinjiang.
The Tiananmen massacre also was a non-profit endeavour.
Ok, but how this compares to what Israel or Russia does?
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Whataboutism
Why must this he compared? The Tiananmen Square massacre was insanely inhumane. They crushed peaceful protestors on bicycles with fucking tanks. They squished the people into a pulp so they could hose them into the gutters. Israel and Russia are also evil, also on a larger scale but that doesn't absolve China from their shit.
Ok, It doesn’t have to be.
I see if we compare China, Russia, Usa and Israel, the China looks the most peaceful in that comparison.
China has set itself a date for when they want to capture Taiwan: 2027. That's not very peaceful of them. When someone says what they're going to do, believe them. Also, Tibet occupation, Uyghur forced labor camps as well as likely mass sterilization (genocide).
But your original comment is still untrue.
Uyghurs would like to have a word.
Uyghurs were killed like ukrainians or palestinians?
Ok, Im not going to argue. I see what China did and still does.
Unfortunately:

How sri lanka is occupied?
Did any of you ever fucking heard of debt-trap diplomacy? I don't enjoy the idea of having to exchange one hegemony for another.
