There are no buzzwords I clinged to. You do not even have a good explanation for what is going on, and you are just not ready to acknowledge a lot of this yet, it seems.
Take your time. I think it is possible you may be applying your own prejudices of some kind to evaluate Chinas from your own lens, which is causing this conflict with yourself.
Some buzzwords: expansionist, deeply controlled, ML, etc. In this context they are used intentionally vaguely. Control is not a vague thing, someone orders someone else to do something and the hierarchy is exactly that. Expansionist can be defined in many different ways. The expansions of US and China are different, but this isn’t 1914, noone cares about the land that much anymore. Both fight for spheres of economic and political influence. And recent annexation of HK was not in the slightest supported by HK. Stop using the word expansionist, its meaning has changed in the past 100 years. As for Leninism, it only kind of existed for three years- 1920-1923. The rest, as they say, is history.
You are projecting your made up ideas on me. And sorry to tell, all of those speculations you have in this comment are so wrong, I will not even bother debunking, be it HK, relevance of ML theory or territorial expansionism.
If you think those are buzzwords I do not know, then this discussion is over. Good luck with that attitude in any discussion.
