    What’s being said has no basis in logic or reason.

    Debating a fanatic is a waste of time. Nazis, racists and tankies only deserve ridicule and ostracism.

            No, Tankie is appropriate, you haven’t shown any other traits that deserve a pejorative… But I’m sure you will.

            I’m not going to respond with an argument because you’ve laid out your argument and it’s not logical, and it’s not based on reason. One democratic nation founded in the 20th century existing and is ok while another is wrong. Use all the racial or jingoistic justification you want it’s still not logical.

            No logic, no reason just one brand of nationalism justified in your mind… And at this point with how fast you respond, I get the feeling you’re probably a paid shill or you have a lot of time on your hands. I post as an unpaid amateur, sorry I just don’t have the time in my day.

              there’s no such thing as a nation of taiwan, or the republic of china, in the eyes of the international law. that’s what matters.

              your “democratic nation” doesn’t exist in the eyes of almost the entire world.

              the only difference between taiwan and china is that china is a communist country and the government in taiwan is a capitalist vassal state of the united states. the culture is the same, the language is the same, the history is the same (except for after 1949 when kuomintang started ruling taiwan under a dictatorship under martial law, which was later followed by liberal democracy as late as 1987

              the only reason people want taiwan to be a separate country is because it’s pro-western and capitalist. there’s no real logical argument to be had for its independence. it’s just people being scared of big scary china and want it to be balkanized as much as possible to not threaten the western hegemony. the independence movement makes as much sense as like idk, a zhejiang independence movement (if the region was ruled by capitalists).

                Once again Tankie you’ve made my case for me, if you’re an unpaid shill you have my sympathy.

                  made what case? do i really have to specifically state that i don’t get paid for random comments on an irrelevant platform?

                  do you actually think governments would hire people to debate on platforms pretty much nobody is using, when they can just deploy a shit ton of llm bots on reddit (which they do btw). like this idea is incredibly stupid.

                  now that i’ve addressed what you wanted, respond to my points, please.
