Gawd. Fucking chinese

Chinese government*

Gee who runs the Chinese government?

Chinese here. Please don't associate me with the CCP. Kthxbai

I'd hope most reasonable people see the difference between governments and citizens.

Your English is probably the best I’ve ever read because you speak like an American.

Thanks? Can't quite tell if you're sincere or implying I'm not Chinese. Sorry, Internet and nuance at odds again. FWIW, English was my first language.

I think they're either being sarcastic, or a dick, not sure.

I mean yeah, but at least they’re not sucking peoples blood.

Edit: my comment was meant to be a joke about iamascaryvampire’s username. Sorry if people don’t get it ☹️

Dude its not just the CCP man even the nationalist party of taiwan have similar policy for expantion but we may never know they would have done if they were in power

This is the worst "both sides" argument I have ever seen.

We'd have been close allies and they would have gotten away with whatever they wanted, likely heavily influenced by Western interests in the region. At some point we would have meddled with their elections, as would have the soviet union, and they likely would have fallen in to a fascist dictatorship, either pro or anti US depending on which superpower won the game. And by today they'd be in a very similar stance, not super close to anyone but closer to the country who's flag shares the most in common.

I mean reject all you want but unless you have the force of arms to keep Chinese ships out of those waters… well, them’s the breaks.

That is not a defense of Chinese imperialism, just the reality of how human tribes control territory.

If only those countries had strong ally that could easily enforce the treaties and international law. I bet modi had fun at the BRICS party. And TSMC killing that fab in AZ is surely in the best interest of the TW people.
