    I’m just telling you what polls of the Taiwanese population are indicating, however you don’t seem at all interested in that, because you’d rather send in the tanks.

      The polls of the Taiwanese population are indicating that US backed DPP is crashing while KMT that wants to repatriate is polling high, however you don’t seem at all interested in that, because you’re a shill for the empire.

        Check again, genius. Also, here’s a poll stating that the majority of Taiwanese are against the “one China two policy” and are in favor of the status quo, meaning that KMT approval doesn’t necessarily mean supporting repatriating.

        Also, I don’t understand why you would call the US an empire, while also shilling for the actual emperor who is now serving his third term, which btw was originally against their own constitution.

          Well I guess we’ll just see what happens when KMT gets into power won’t we genius. Meanwhile, wait till you find out how long people like Merkel have been in power. I guess using your galaxy brain logic, Germany is a dictatorship. 😂

              You’re the one said that Xi having a third term means China is a dictatorship. I’m just pointing out that longer terms are pretty common in western democracies. I love how your comeback is to just spew nonsense. Really highlights the quality of your intellect there.

                I also said that they changed their own constitution just to accommodate for it. Did Germany do that for Merkel? Also, do normal Chinese citizens get to vote for their leader? Cause as far as I know, they don’t. Not even their People’s Representative is elected by their own people. (Fun fact: there’s a Taiwan representative in their Congress, which obviously wasn’t elected by the Taiwanese people at all) There’s not even a single choice outside of the CCP. You ignoring the huge elephant in the room that China is a one-party system, thinking Xi essentially voting himself in is remotely comparable to elections in Germany, and thinking that “third term=dictatorship” is the only thing I meant, really highlights the quality of your intellect here.

                  Countries change constitutions all the time, not sure why this is so significant. The point is that German constitution already allowed for this. Meanwhile, western style parliamentary democracy is just one implementation. If you think that’s the only way democracy can work then you really need to educate yourself more. Having more parties doesn’t make a country more democratic, the question is whose interests the parties represent. Chinese system is democratic centralism and it’s clearly doing a hell of a lot better job representing the interests of the majority than any western system given that quality of life in China keeps improving while it’s collapsing in the west. Claiming that Xi is essentially voting for himself is the height of comedy. The fact that you don’t even know the basics of how political systems work really says everything I need to know. Bye.

                    Doing a good job representing the people? Do you really think the constant speech control on Chinese social media, the abundance of unfinished buildings, the Henan bank protests that is still unresolved since last year, the multiple law enforcement divisions on urban management, agriculture, and recently culture which has multiple controversies already, is China “improving”? Let’s not forget that there are now even more people willing to risk their lives to walk across Mexico to migrate to the US, while the higher officials already have their families migrated to other countries. Says alot about how well their country is doing.

                    You taking what they say at face value and don’t do basic investigation on what they actually do internally just shows how unqualified you are discussing Chinese politics.
