    They want what every country that once owned 1 speck of sand beyond their borders 1000 years ago wants: “Repayment of past injustices!”

    No, they want the unification of ethnic Han states, which is why they want Taiwan and not Vladivostok.

      Yeah well some of those “Han states” don’t consider themselves “Han states” anymore.

      So I guess they need to do something censored to themselves.

      Or maybe India needs to unify all lands descended from Hinduism, including Buddhism in the east?

      Everybody has an argument to do some moronic thing they want to do, because things will be the way they’re supposed to be.

      They should let Tibet and Xinjiang go, those aren’t Han people, they shouldn’t be a part of the great Han motherland.

        I assume you must mean some place other than Taiwan, because Taiwan is still very much Han.

          Maybe, but they don’t want any part of that “Han Motherland” you speak of.

          At least not while the CCP is anywhere but up against the same wall they put so many other Chinese.

            I didn’t say anything about a Han Motherland, so I don’t know why you’re using quotation marks.

            And Taiwan does desire the reunification of Han areas. Under the government of the ROC.

              Again, yes, but I think there’s a lot of room to negotiate, the key sticking point is the CCP and that wall.

              The main landers would probably be OK with that too, considering the CCP killed more Chinese than Genghis Khan, the only people on the planet who don’t are the CCP
