    Again with the downvotes, lol. Taiwan has been a Western political puppet since forever, or as MacArthur would put it, their “unsinkable aircraft carrier”. 😉

    It’s okay, at least they’ve started hating Israel after a livestreamed genocide. Deprogramming takes time, I guess.

      Except it’s factually wrong.

      The CCP were the rebels fighting the pre-existing government (the Republic of China.)

      You can argue about who the good guys are, I guess. But, eh, I wouldn’t describe Mao as a “good guy” and don’t really care to defend the republic of china either.

      As for Mao, he killed tens of millions of his own people, so, yeah.
