Thoughts?

Is this imperialism by China, a country which is supposed to be left-wing? Leftists are normally anti-imperialism. Wouldn't it be better to let Taiwan democratically decide whether they want to be part of China or not?

West Taiwan: baby let's get back together!

Taiwan: no! you were an asshole to me!

West Taiwan: I wasn't asking.

Taiwan: this is what I'm fucking talking about!

    The break-up was a little different... Chiang Kai Shek was just as much of a monster as Mao. He was just a capitalist monster so the west supported him.

    He was just as much of a monster after he was driven off of the mainland.

    He and Reverend Moon directly funded literal Nazi death squads in South America.

    But that fucker is dead, and Taiwan is a functional democracy, unlike the mainland.

    They don't want to "unify", they can see what happens to places China "unifies" with.
