I deleted my earlier post because I thought I prematurely posted what I thought was a balanced analysis from an American military (Army) perspective due to some usual misunderstanding, intentional diminishing of Mao, the reasons why KMT and Jiang Jieshi failed in China...I had to watched the entire video and see if it's worth watching and am glad to say that yeah it is.

The presentation, analysis is as balanced one can get with China, the PLA and it's current capability. The analysts talked about China's nukes, hypersonic and ballistic missiles, the theater command structure changes, Combined Arms Brigade, new Army tactics and training etc..the 1st island chain, 2nd island chain etc..
most especially they talked about the upcoming inevitable conflict with China as a matter of when not if.

This is a "de-ideological" way of thinking for people with real intellectual potential to discuss issues, rather than allowing the biggest "arrogant" emotion in the Seven Deadly Sins to control their subconscious expression.

China will not do this. China has absolutely high moral standards on the issue of "anti-drug", as well as the corresponding spirit of internationalism.

Almost everything is a non-story here, except something quite important..
1-3. I am surprised that China even bothered talking with them after all that has happened in recent years
4-6. Boring
7. Important. Buy Fentanyl stonks!
8. Non-story. We all know what each country does or does not do to combat climate change. Given its resources and what it is willing to do, the US is indeed the most useless country on planet Earth to talk about climate change

I like the idea to flood the us with drugs,but I need to mention the us already has a broken middle class.
Anyway we can help to accelerate the process.

Now that Islamic Emirate of Afghanistan has spoken in favour of China; this changes everything. The world's balance of power has shifted irrecoverably in favour of Communist Party of China. A big sigh of relief by the Uighurs.

Cooperation or even friendliness from Taliban is actually a big boon for China's western areas, they'll hopefully stop sending fighters and creating new terror cells among the uyghurs, causing a significantly improved standard of life and safety in Xinjiang.

So while in terms of power it is a small move because Afghanistan is a small power, it can have a decent effect for more people than you think.

干涉和極少數「台獨」分裂分子及其分裂活動，絕非針對台灣同胞。
He says that the reason why they don't promise to give up AR is due to Taiwan independence people and their separatist activities.
From last year's videoconference with Biden: 大陸是有耐心的，願以最大誠意、盡最大努力爭取和平統一的前景，但如果「台獨」分裂勢力挑釁逼迫，甚至突破紅線，將不得不採取斷然措施。
The mainland will do everything they can to pursue peaceful unification, but if Taiwan separatists provoke us and break the red line, we will be forced to pursue drastic measures.
Also from 2017 military day(建軍節): 我們絶不允許任何人、任何組織、任何政黨、在任何時候、以任何形式、把任何一塊中國領土從中國分裂出去，誰都不要指望我們會吞下損害我國主權、安全、發展利益的苦果。
This does not explicitly threaten force, but given the context it seems apparent that military force is impled if the DPP declares independence.

“Xi has repeatedly said that force will be used against Taiwanese separatists/independence activists.”

Everything Xi said in the quotes you cited were couched in conditionals. You presented his position as categorical.
