I hope the disillusionment concerning Zionism comes full tilt to the point of no recovery

China isn't altering their foreign policy objectives or jumping to war based on U.S. actions. They'd rather just wait for the U.S. to make enough of a mess that world order structures begin to change on their own (which they arguably are right now. we're not going back to pre-Feb world)
Also military is not China's first option. Xi is meeting this month with the leader of the KMT in Beijing, the party that could realistically win Taiwan elections in 2028, which would forge closer ties between China and Taiwan in a crucial timeframe Beijing wants to promote "peaceful unification"

it's multipolarity bro dengist nonsense that the KMT would ever unify with the mainland under CPC rule lol
invasion is the only feasible option and the longer they put it off the more prepared the taiwanese are.

Didn't say that's what KMT want. Forging closer ties means trade (ex. Taiwan needs LNG that PRC has), more diplomacy, tourism, etc.. which is how Beijing exerts influence. KMT has pre-set general agreements with China over "One China" (ex. 1992 Consensus) which opens the path for expanded cross-straight dialogues
China's never said anything about a rush to invade Taiwan. You're falling for U.S. narratives, which prefer a war to happen sooner than later because come 2030's Chinese military will reach parity and overwhelm East Asia. Its only "the only feasible option" all you know is war. China hasn't been to war in over 40 years and in that time achieved diplomatic land transfers.
Even U.S. media now claims China was being genuine about preferring diplomacy lol nbcnews.com/world/asia/us-assesses-china-not-planning-invade-taiwan-2027-rcna264239

taiwan is not hong kong. their isn't going to be any peaceful handover and the buildup of imperialist military aid is becoming a major problem. obviously the best time to deal with this would've been the GPCR era but the logic of the cultural revolution rarely extended to foreign policy.
if a peaceful handover was going to happen the conditions for it do not currently exist and the ruling class is entirely hostile to rule by the mainland. the PLA has every right to take the island by force.

Again you're presuming the rush to take Taiwan, which PRC leadership has at no point in history been in a rush to do, even during three Taiwan Straight Crises between the 50's and 90's
Odd to bring up Cultural Revolution when that's exactly when China made masterful foreign policy/diplomatic moves to displace Taiwan at U.N (and Security Council), secure U.S. concessions post-Vietnam loss and forge the new status quo we've lived by ever since. There used to be a world where Western policy was that "Taiwan" was "China," Chiang wanted to invade China to reunify and China had few diplomatic partners. Mao and Zhou Enlai flipped that via diplomacy. Some of China's biggest foreign policy moments in PRC era were achieved during that era in a rebalance after CR's initial phase.
At every step China has avoided military conflicts when not needed. They don't rush into these things and do not prefer it as their tool.
edit: Neither HK (and Macau) or Taiwan are recognized sovereign states. You also presume the aid can maintain as U.S. moves forces to yet another M.E. war. Taiwan is currently unable to increase its own defenses because of KMT in congress, again circling to my initial point
