Sending planes close to Taiwan, threatening invasion everyday, like what Russia did before invading Ukraine?

Was Russia merely challenging American superiority?

What Russia is doing is horrific. I am not saying China is a kingdom of goodness. Rather I am saying the US does the same. We have invaded plenty and is supporting an invasion in the middle east right now. The problem we have with China isn't moral. We have plenty of allies who are morally bad. But they aren't challenging us economically unlike China.
If you look at the https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Air_Defense_Identification_Zon... pictured in the lower left, tell me how not to send airplanes into that, when you're the PRC?

This is just bad comedy!
