    I was thinking of the green and white flag that has the island of Taiwan on it, though I think there are others too. Yeah, the Democratic Progressive Party uses a variant of it, I think.

    You probably already know this, but the narrative in the West is that everyone in Taiwan wants to completely cut ties with the mainland and become an independent country. As in, totally destroy any and all connections with the rest of China because they are forcing them to be communist or something.

    “Free Taiwan” is a big thing in the US and I’m certain that’s what Redditors were thinking about when drawing the flag. But the flag they chose isn’t explicitly secessionist like the black Hong Kong flag is.
