China "occupies" Tibet to the same degree that USA occupies California Republic, or Texas Republic.

The fact that this meme stil lives in western mind just shows how pathetic and detached from reality is western anti-CCP propaganda. Propaganda should contain truth, to be credible, otherwise it ceased to be effective

You've got some facts wrong. The "California Republic" was a tiny rebellion against Mexico whose goal was to join the US. The Texas Republic also asked to join the US (and was turned down the first time).

But if your point is that the US is as much an empire as China, I agree.

I mean, just literally if you run a poll among United Nations members, people would rate the statement like "China occupies Tibet" and "USA occupies Texas" as the same delusional things - fantasy detached from reality

What are you basing that statement on? Was there are actually a UN vote, or are you just BSing?
