Long story short, America destroys countries with war and policy with no interest in rebuilding so China rebuilds them with their advantages
You mean like how the US destroyed Japan with war and then didn't rebuild them?
Face meet plant, you just pooped the bed with that post, now run away.
History has shown us repeatedly that one of China's biggest threats is its own government. So sure, it's wise of them to control and censor all internal messaging, oppress dissent and remind their people that the *enemy* is external.
I look forward to your response but doubt that there will be one. Don't want to get fired, blacklisted and end up working hard labor jobs for pennies right?
Taiwan claimed independence from China in the 40s. Mainland China has been POed ever since.
you might want to dig deeper into taiwan history man. cause thats all wrong. up till 80s, Taiwan consider ccp illegitimate government of china, and they are the legitimate government of china. up till 60s, taiwan was thinking invade mainland with support from US to re-establish its government. Taiwan also has one the longest Marshall law in the world for almost 30years, its 1st election was 1996. it also has the 92 consensus. To this day taiwan never officially claim independence, thats why there is a status quo, and why No country recognize taiwan
The 1992 Consensus is a political term referring to the alleged outcome of a meeting in 1992 between the semiofficial representatives of the People's Republic of China (PRC) of mainland China and the Republic of China (ROC) of Taiwan. They are often credited as creating a diplomatic basis for semi-official cross-strait exchanges which began in the early 1990s and is a precondition set by the PRC for engaging in cross-strait dialogue.[1][2]
Whether the meetings truly resulted in a consensus is under dispute in the ROC. The Kuomintang (KMT) understanding of the consensus is "one China, different interpretations" that the ROC and PRC agree that there is one China, but disagree about what "China" means (i.e. ROC vs. PRC). The PRC's position is that there is one China (including Taiwan), of which PRC is the sole legitimate representative.
This has to be one of the most idiotic blunders I can remember.
Global tensions are high enough. We are already engaged in a proxy war with the other superpower in Europe. Why would be antagonizing the Chinese over this? There is nothing to gain and everything to lose.
They are just following the flow of Corporate money over the past 30 years. There have been huge gains made by American investors following behind Wal-Mart and other big companies moving operations to China since the 90s and the party is still going on but it is slowing.
Pelosi is going there to get the ball rolling on the next pandemic, breakout, "accidental release", of Covid 20?
We should check if there are any labs in Taiwan that experiment with gain of function testing and that labs proximity to a Wet market...
Do we know if Pelosi is traveling with a pallet of cash? Is Dr Fauci going with her?
The Dems have to get something going now if they hope to win in 2024.
