It looks like a duck, sounds like a duck, quacks like a duck… Well it might be a duck.
I understand definitions are incredibly important for both US and China. According to US and Taiwan, it’s a sovereign country. According to China and UN, it’s part of China. I would be willing to concede at “It’s complicated.”

I think the Taiwan Strait is further evidence of the “It’s complicated” argument.
Fair point. US has definitely killed more non-US citizens than China has killed non-China citizens. I can’t honestly pretend the US foreign policy is righteous or even sustainable.
Copium. They sent literal tanks. Why? Why do you need tanks to handle a peaceful protest?
US definitely has a prison problem. Definitely not acting like it’s perfect.
But that makes China okay how? Do you even believe the numbers they spread? Covid is a great example of how reliable Chinese figures are.
At least I don’t have a government score rating my contributions to a central power. China is a dystopia.
The point I’m making is that they’re independent territories not owned by China. China continues to censor and murder in attempts to gain more territory. Taiwan is still a sovereign country. Claiming it’s not is just factually wrong.
Dude I hate the US political system. But the US beats the hell out of China any day of the week. Attempting to draw any comparison that suggests the US is acting more irresponsibly than China is insulting at best.
Taiwan. Hong Kong. Tiananmen Sqaure Massacre.
Here’s the thing… I can automatically discredit everything you say because the stance you’re taking. If you’re going to simp for something, it’s impossible to have a rational discussion.
You love China. I hate the US. I just hate China even more.
