    democratically elected? arguable and only for the last few decades at that. it was run as a brutal single party dictatorship backed by amerikkka until fairly recently. And last time i checked the vast majority of people in Taiwan want to maintain the status quo which is that Taiwan is part of China.

      Yeah, fuck the KMT. But as you have recognised, they aren’t a dictatorship anymore.

      And the status quo is that they are de facto a small independent island nation, that is de jure claiming mainland China.
