Aboriginal Formosan people of the island were colonized first by feudal lords and this was perpetuated by the ROC, did you know that, right? It wasn’t a Han majority State.

The part that wants independence is not the one who helds office or majority of congress and that opinion is not held my the majority of its people. The official stance by the Republic of China is that the mainland and the island are one and the same and that they should be reunited. It is a political difference, the ROC are liberals who want a bourgeois dictatorship, the PRC are communists who want a proletarian dictatorship.

Still, this is not an issue with China’s political affairs, WE in the third world welcome with open hearts the Belt and Road innitiative. In Latin America alone this will bring an enourmous help in freeing ourselves from the claws of Usonian and European imperialism, which you seem to want to perpetuate. We welcome them, it is none of your business what we do with them. You already had your shot at industrialization thanks to the blood of our siblings, if you care about the environment free the colonies you enslave (Hawaii, Puerto Rico, Jamaica, French Guiana, and the countless others) and repair the pillaging you have done in these lands to help us transition to a green energy infrastructure. If not, shut the fuck up because you are only interested in what benefits your Empire and your masters. You see bad only in otherness, as you liberals like to say, whattaboutism. It is always “What about China?”, “What about X and Y?” but never “What about ourselves?”.
