Unless they plan to drop some bombs over our heads I don’t see how WW3 with the US involved would result in better accomodations for the ruzzians.
I’m a lazy gunless asshole typing away from my couch. But if some grade a asshole from ruzzia came to bother me, I probably could easily run downstairs and grab any one of many power tools capable of removing ruzzians body parts.
I believe the Ukrainian defense is going to kick ruzzians ass pretty good. Hopefully soon we’ll see putin coming out of a smokey hole in the ground on a grainy YouTube video. putin is the real reason for the war. Removing him might bring up a few more people like him, but those can be removed since the public won’t be behind them.
That seems unlikely, what exactly are they trying to reunify with? A few rocks and beaches in the pacific ocean?
Resources. Also to Xi, this is a really important milestone that he actually wants to do while he is still at the place.
C’mon, that’s absurd, if the PRC wanted to murder everyone living in the RoC they wouldn’t be letting them travel freely to and from the mainland.
You wouldn’t have similar numbers of people supporting immediate independence and eventual reunification on Taiwan.
They are the frogs got baited into the Luke-warm water; once they are in the water, they gonna turn on the heat. The bait is getting hard recently with Xinjiang Travel incident (cannot find English news, this is the Chinese one: https://www.rfa.org/cantonese/news/htm/tw-youtuber-xinjiang-08272024072943.html). While trying to fina a news link, accidentally clicking in a so-called Xinjiang Travel vlog, and holy shit it is filled with Chinese bots….
Also, I read your article, and your comparison is weird; the graph inside already shows 31.5% for leaning towards independence and only 7.4% towards reunion in 2021
You know Radio Free Asia is literally funded by the CIA? It is the very definition of non-credible.
The graph shows the overwhelming majority want the status quo for now, with only ~10% wanting immediate independence. That portion would be a lot higher, and the “reunification now+eventually” segments would be almost zero if China’s ambition was genocidal.
Oh, non-credible? Then let me just give you other sources:
Lmao
Sorry I really laughed out load for this. I will tell you why there are such people: because that’s how Chinese works. As long as you don’t talk about politics and any conflicts around China, they just look like normal people, they are kind and cheerful; but when you actually touched on the topic, they just turn into genocidal psychopaths. As a Chinese myself, this just made me stop talking about politics in the public; even when they try to move to a political topic like Messi Mess, I will just try to move to other topics
