The fact that you can't even figure out how to google basic publicly available information explains quite a bit about your comment history.

I know you cant back up your claims. You are just here to stir up drama.

I see you've made a self referential comment.

still no source.

It's pretty common troll tactic to claim to want information on something that's well documented. What specifically do you want a source regarding, how US poured millions into Taiwanese media via orgs like NED, or how US grooms DPP politicians, or how US based orgs help write school curriculum?

In the African high speed rail thread, you required citations of others who had opinions you didn't like.

You're doing it here, too. But you won't put in the effort you expect of others.

And you decry hypocrisy.

You are becoming a known agitator and troll. That's never good for a cause you care about. Good work.

In the African high speed rail thread, I pointed out that the conjecture that the rail wouldn't be cost effective was made up. Nothing in the article I submitted suggested that would be the case. So, if the person was claiming that, I was asking on what basis they were claiming it.

What I'm stating about US interference in Taiwan i on the other hand a well documented fact.

Once again, the only agitator and a troll here is the one who's following me around and making personal attacks trying to smear me while adding nothing at all to the discussion. Do better.

Nope. Stop there.

You keep telling other people to do the research and make an argument to you. But you will not do it yourself.

It's a troll move and you have to stop. All you are doing is alienating people. I've begun to wonder if that's what you're here to do.

I provide sources for what I say all the time when I say something that's not necessarily obvious. In this particular case, I'm stating a well documented fact that anybody can google. The troll move here is to claim that I said something controversial, demand evidence, and then to make personal smear attacks against me. Which is what you and your buddy are doing.

That said, here are some materials that you will never bother reading, but might help other people reading the thread understand who the actual troll here is.

US Political Capture of Taiwan

Sunflower Movement Leader Lin Fei-fan’s Associations with the US NED

Democratic Progressive Party (DPP)’s regular Reporting to AIT

US interference in Taiwan politics and media is very well documented. US has poured countless millions into shaping the opinions of the people in Taiwan through orgs like NED, it directly grooms US politicians such as Tsai Ing-Wen, and that's literally what colonialism and cultural hegemony are.
