Pretending a country waging a war of aggression on another sovereign country is the good guy is troll behaviour.
Pretending a country threatening the security of another sovereign country through aggressive posturing and illegally sending jets into their airspace without permission is doing nothing wrong (to say nothing of the ridiculous maritime claims that infringe on the EEZs of no fewer than 6 other countries) is troll behaviour.
Making claims that "the majority of the world" believes your ridiculous claims is trolling. I'll just go ask my Taiwanese and Vietnamese friends what they think, shall I?
Your first two paragraphs are just the regurgitation of Western propaganda, so not worth addressing
Regarding this :
I suggest you do actually go and ask some ordinary people in Vietnam what their opinion is. And you'd do well to ask people in Taiwan too. I've lived in Taiwan and know that many there see the US as (rightly in my opinion) an imperialist aggressor and whose sympathies lie much more with China. I suggest you also pay attention to the results of the upcoming election in Taiwan in 2024. The polling for Tsai Ing-Wen is going pretty badly right now. Seems the ppl of Taiwan are not terribly anxious to sign up to be the next proxy for the US and have their country destroyed, as Ukraine is sadly being destroyed now (the latest in a long list of countries that the US has taken control of and then sacrificed as pawns in their imperialist games).
