Chinese foreign policy has rarely deviated from moderate, trade-oriented and relatively apolitical over the past few decades. I think the massive allocation of US taxpayer funds toward negative coverage of China has swayed your opinion to the most hawkish extreme. None of these accusations really exist outside of the anglosphere and HK/Taiwan based Sinophone disinfo networks, however most of them are widely acknowledged as crimes that the US has committed in the very recent past in some capacity.

this dude over here really had his "chinabad" switch turned on in 2018 and doesn't even realize it or remember what it was like in the before-fore times

Taiwanese media wasn't even that dedicated to Chinese disinformation up until like 2016 or whatever.

Relations were normalizing across the strait smh.
