Taiwan is not for sale, and neither is it part of China, said Taiwan’s Foreign Affairs Ministry, in a rebuke to Elon Musk.

    One is providing defensive weapons against the other that wants to snuff out the views of the majority on the island. There should be nothing surprising about that.

    The majority of the people in Taiwan do not consider themselves to be part of the PRC and the indigenous Taiwanese certainly do not.

    Have whatever qualms you want about the US but it is pretty clear that China is not wanted in Taiwan.

      You honestly think the USA gives the slightest shit about Asians on the other side of the planet? You probably think they care about who governs a sliver of land in the most corrupt shithole in the modern world in Europe too.

      The majority of the people in Taiwan do not consider themselves to be part of the PRC and the indigenous Taiwanese certainly do not.

      And those indigenous Taiwanese? How do they feel about being Taiwanese?

      The US is not wanted in Asia full stop.

        I and tons of others in the USgive a shit about people on the other side of the planet. Do you not?

        Not sure what country you are talking about in your second part but your statement sounds a little racist.

        The indigenous Taiwanese do not consider themselves to be part of China.

        The majority of people in Taiwan do want US aid so I’m not sure where you are getting that the US is not wanted. China is not wanted in Taiwan certainly.
