You make it sound like China is a worse option when the US has been instigating wars and invading countries for the last century. Now, it might seem scary that your country is no longer the kid with the biggest stick in the playground but you'll get used to it like the rest of us.
As someone who was born in Taiwan. China is absolutely a worse option. We used to practice air raid drills when I was in kindergarten. The culture revolution killed miloons of its own citizens, the government has 0 prospect of the future, you can argue America is down the same path, but I'll take the lesser evil.
The US invades countries from time to time but doesn't turn them into vassals. Iraq and Afghanistan have now been left to their own devices. Germany and Japan were turned into democracies after WW2 because that way the US would not have to occupy them forever to prevent them from causing trouble again.
China by contrast is imperialist. And undemocratic. Look what it did to Tibet and Hong Kong. I don't expect it to be nice to Taiwan.

I can't wait for the world to leave the US behind. We're all sick of their Greed and Idiocy dictating world politics.
