Granted I would like to live in a more civil society and I thought we were at least going in that direction for about half my life but the rate we have been falling in the second half has been very sobering.

    The DPP is fighting for their constituents (to be used as cannon fodder by America)

    The KMT isn’t great, but status quo is infinitely better than having America turn your country into another Ukraine or Afghanistan.

      The best solution for the people of the PRC and the State of Taiwan (RoC), and to undercut US imperial goals in the Asian Pacific is for the PRC to recognise an indepent Taiwan, in return for not being excluded from semi conductors and having free passage through territorial waters (and throw in recognition of PRC claims in South China Sea if you like).

      Without the threat of invasion and a normalisation of ties both will help both economically and socially, and the shared cultural links will pull them together over time; and it ties the US’s hands in meddling.

      China is a fascist state, which is why they want to invade and conquer Taiwan, typical nationalist micropeen overcompensation.

      There is only one party to blame for starting a war of aggression against basic principles of self determination.

      Cope.

      Then get ordered by a “Marxist” state to pay $30k to Tesla because they killed your dad.

        Do you understand that you are cheering for the total destruction of an island with millions of people?

        I’d explain the history and actual politics, and why it’s hilarious to refer to the PRC as fascist in comparison to the RoC, but none of that shit matters next to how gross it is to call for the deaths of foreigners from half way around the world.
