Interesting, the ROC doesn’t hold veto power? How can China join the club, if Taiwan is the rightful government representing all the Chinese people?

It’s fine. None of this matters.

America is defending Taiwan, ipso facto, you did.

The Jakarta Method by Vincent Bevins mentions Brazil quite a bit.

Thank you Matt for your service. Now we know China has gravitic propulsion capabilities.

Lost Cause of the Confederacy

Lifting of martial law means opposition political parties can be formed legally for the first time, giving Taiwan's fragmented but increasingly vocal opposition a new chance to organize. Communist parties remain banned. Dissidents welcomed the development, but noted that a new security law immediately replaced martial law and still restricts political activity.

That’s quite a democracy.

It banned formation of any new political parties, gave the military wide censorship powers and was used by military courts to convict thousands of civilians of sedition and other crimes.

Even the UN 🇺🇳 doesn’t recognize Taiwan 🇹🇼.

I appreciate what you do, and always learn from your comments.

Uh,

From 1949 to 1987, the KMT ruled Taiwan as an authoritarian one-party state after the February 28 incident.

Is America not imperialist? Why is it not okay when they do it, but okay when we do?

Maybe imperialism is bad when anyone does it.

not even comparable. Martial law for 40 years doesn’t sound like turning it around.

It was Marjorie Taylor Greene. Gimme the $500,000. /s

Lot’s wife from the Bible. They did my girl wrong.

The Kuomintang fought a civil war and lost, would we be okay if the Confederacy kept Florida and wouldn’t give it back?

Are you talking about the White Terror?

War is necessary… so I can text grandma? Do ya’ll not hear yourselves?

“Us” being? Taiwan didn’t send me a Christmas card.

It’s also on Youtube.
