russia solved their oil supply problem anexing a neighboring country and no sign of a world war. why do you think china anexing taiwan would start one (also, remember china already sent a column of tanks there one nigth and again, nothing happened with the world)

International apathy is at an all time high, thanks to most countries dealing with internal political issues (which in most cases involve rigth wing groups and fake news)

Taiwan is an island. Sending a column of tanks there isn't something the PLA could just do overnight. They'd need to get a warship past Taiwan's naval and aerial defenses in the first place before they could even think of invading with tanks.
