Warmongers are at it again, psyoping their own people

I think if you look at this site, the warmongering never stopped, so they're not really at it again...

...are you suggesting Taiwan should instead just peacefully give up its independence and human rights?

I am not suggesting anything; i am a nobody and so are you, Taiwanese are sovereign people, they'll choose what they want to do
DPP have lost latest legislative elections, and KMT, the winners, are advocating for closer ties with China
Besides, China wants peaceful reunification, warmongers want to arm Taiwan and steal its semiconductor industry
Always using proxies :smiley_face:
"1982 U.S.-PRC Joint Communiqué/Six Assurances
As they negotiated establishment of diplomatic relations, the U.S. and PRC governments agreed to set aside the contentious issue of U.S. arms sales to Taiwan. They took up that issue in the 1982 August 17 Communiqué, in which the PRC states “a fundamental policy of striving for peaceful reunification” with Taiwan, and the U.S. government states it “understands and appreciates” that policy. The U.S. government states in the 1982 communiqué that with those statements “in mind,” “it does not seek to carry out a long-term policy of arms sales to Taiwan,” and “intends gradually to reduce its sale of arms to Taiwan, leading, over a period of time, to a final resolution.” The U.S. government also declares “no intention” of “pursuing a policy of ‘two Chinas,’” meaning the PRC and the ROC, “or ‘one China, one Taiwan.’”"
But this isn't true though; China wants a one-sided reunification at all costs and would prefer if it was peaceful.
Fun fact: All countries that invade others would generally have preferred a peaceful takeover if that had been an option. It's not like Nazi Germany would have complained if Poland had just willingly decided to join the Reich.
What would you think about someone who told you, unironically, "Nazi Germany wanted a peaceful unification with Poland"? Surely you'd think it's silly to even attempt to bring that up like it's an actual argument, right?
So no, China wants to annex Taiwan. That is how you fully describe China's position on the subject.
As for the DPP vs KMT thing, you bring that up as if the KMT was in favour of re-unification; their position is really more about not upsetting China and risk an invasion. It is a different approach to maintaining independence, but that is still the goal.
If you really had a problem with treating taiwan as a pawn of the west, why aren't you instead complaining that we don't recognise Taiwan as its own nation separate from the ROC?
