Thoughts?

Is this imperialism by China, a country which is supposed to be left-wing? Leftists are normally anti-imperialism. Wouldn’t it be better to let Taiwan democratically decide whether they want to be part of China or not?

          Yeah, China should definitely subjugate Taiwan to fend off those Americans who have no intention of attacking China and who have benefitted from trillions of dollars of trade from the US.

            Only you guys seem to think this.

            You’re obsessed with global conquest and you think you’re in a race with China to do it.

            who have benefitted from trillions of dollars of trade from the US.

            Have they? Why is Taiwanese standard of living so low?

              China’s overall end-goal is specifically to annex Taiwan. Taiwanese people do not want this. What would you call this?

              Have they? Why is Taiwanese standard of living so low?

              Is it? Based on what? What data are you referring to?
