  • Except, it's really not. Your quote from the Wikipedia article is unsubstantiated conjecture with no source that supports the claim.

    There's a reason Wikipedia isn't acceptable for academic papers: it's factually incorrect often enough to be a problem. It's specifically a problem for non-Western content because the vast majority of Wikipedia contributors speak English as their dominant (and often only) language and thus can only ever use English secondary or tertiary sources.

  • Wikipedia is not a source.

    [citation needed]

    Here's the source on Taiwanese ADIZ, as well as what parts of Taiwanese ADIZ are accepted by the US (and thus, what the US will report on): https://www.google.com/url?sa=t&source=web&rct=j&opi=89978449&url=https://digital-commons.usnwc.edu/cgi/viewcontent.cgi%3Farticle%3D2939%26context%3Dils&ved=2ahUKEwiGoKKS3PqAAxXDD0QIHYVzDg0QFnoECBAQAQ&usg=AOvVaw0FmfTWzQ9XNfwfTL-qwUs5

    Notably, Taiwan's ADIZ that crosses over mainland China is not recognized by the US, BUT, US recognition of Taiwan's ADIZ is neither at the median line nor at Taiwan's 12-mile territory limit. This is clearly visible in the middle and northwestern corners of where the US recognizes Taiwan's ADIZ, which, as you will note, are not at the median point between the two bodies.

  • US psyops trying to gaslight the content of the article. There are trace elements of other contaminants... Of unknown concentration, and we have to take TEPCO's word that it's "like, totally safe man, just like our nuclear reactors"

  • Ah yes, because conducting the largest amphibious assault in human history on a mountainous island with dense forests would go so well... When the defenders have had almost a century to entrench their position and train literally their entire population in military service.

    You start off with D-Day and jump straight into Vietnam. No military on this planet has enough conventional arms to take Taiwan by force.

    If you really wanted to take over Taiwan, you could just naval blockade the island: it's substantially smaller than Cuba and has a larger population to feed.

  • A significant chunk of the supposed emissions reductions are from switching from coal to natural gas. This is true in the US, Germany, and many other countries.

    However, that's under the rather misguided premise that natural gas is actually a cleaner fossil fuel than coal. Methane is a much more powerful GHG than CO2 and methane leakage in the natural gas supply chain has recently been estimated to be around 2.5%...

    In essence, we're hiding behind a veil of lies.
