Is China really going to nuke the US because the US says that it officially no longer supports the one China policy?
Sure, they bluster. But that would be really stupid. "You said something I don't like, so I'm going to kill us both" level of stupid. China talks tough, but I don't think they're actually that stupid.
Technically the US supports the one China policy. It is assumed WW3 starts if that ever changes.
The US walks a line on Taiwan that falls far short of actual support for One China but does enough to support it that the US has a lot of room to escalate with China if the US wants to without starting WW3.
This is false. The U.S. leases Guantanamo Bay. It evens sends payment by check regularly, though only one has been cashed in Fidel Castro's time "by accident."

The nuance and significance might be that Russia is actively seizing another sovereign nation's territory, whereas the US is not.
I guess it's convenient for your argument that the US is taking a short break from invading other sovereign nations.
And, since they were mentioned, China/CCP really really wants to seize Taiwan.

Are you aware of Taiwan's diplomatic status?
It's a real cluster fuck.
The US is actively seizing another sovereign nation's territory, it is seizing Guantanamo in Cuba, which Cuba has requested the US leave for decades.

It doesn’t matter they pretend to pay if the rightful owners want them out.
