I’m Taiwanese and I can assure you that as China gets richer, more and more Taiwanese people will become pro-China. This has already been happening for almost a decade now. Culturally, there is basically no difference between mainland Chinese and Taiwanese people.

Maybe Taiwanese overseas. DPP has been winning all elections since 2016. This reflects popular opinion in Taiwan no matter if the elections are fair or not. If they're fair it's real, if it's rigged then nobody wants to call it out because it's believable.
There is no such thing as fair political elections in non-state entities. The ROC has its own mission which they will never compromise, and there's also no transparency in so called elections.
Public political opinion doesn't matter as long as the ROC is the armed occupier with their own preconceived political positions and essentially holds the province at gunpoint. Popular opinions from Taiwan are not opinions delivered without duress.

yea not sure how true this is, all statistical data is showing a widening gap between pro-china and pro-independence populations. Maybe it feels different on the ground.
Things are hard in South Korea.
As long as there's a ROC exercising illegal armed control, there is no such thing as a pro-china or pro-independence camp. Only people in various stages of duress and with different coping strategies.
If they can forget the fact that about 100 thousand Russians and a massive terrorist attack happened in Moscow thanks to the west, expecting Russia to do a Gorbachev and suck up to the west immediately after things die down sounds pretty stupid in all honesty. Nor does expecting rapprochement to come from the west considering that they spent literally 2 years hating on Russia to the point of wanting to do a WW3 expecting to kill as many Russians as possible. As of now, the west can forget trying to court Russia from Russia for at least an entire generation.
DPP doesn't always win the popular vote actually.
North Korean defectors have a hard life in SK. They are usually assigned a police handler to make sure they are not up to something.
Most South Koreans think they are backwards. Women are often looked down upon as ugly and unsophisticated because they might not be dressed trendy, and lack the financial means to get plastic surgery or dental work. Many don't have strong educational backgrounds. This leaves them isolated and unhappy. It was a story in Canada about how North Koreans wanted to claim asylum in Canada, but could not because they had already transited through South Korea and were granted citizenship.
Korean caste system - Overseas Koreans > ROK citizens > Joseonjok (Chinese Koreans) > North Koreans.
Mixed race Koreans, just pretend they don't exist
How Dafaq does that even happen, something is definitely going down hard in the US and they still wanna go at Iran while having a go now in Ukraine. It’s literally daylight robbery in the states

The thing about Americans is they're in denial in defending their own even when their own are screwing them. It's not American companies' fault that that they're outsourcing to other countries taking away American jobs. It's the countries that they outsource to who's at fault. They want Chinese to buy their agricultural products but they vote for people who's only solution is antagonism towards their customer. The world is shifting and Western farmers won't be making any money outside the West. And here they don't get a break from their own. It's that white supremacy thing where they're only motivated by good so none of them can do any bad. Which is why they demand everyone blindly obey them which If their companies are willing to screw their own people over, you know they don't care about anyone else which will turn everyone else away from them. That's why even when they get hurt by their own, they will maintain the lie.
Here you got a guy defaulting that China isn't buying US soybeans because Chinese practice unfair trade. What happened to all the money the US is saving from breaking it off with China...? Chinese not buying US agricultural shouldn't be hurting them if they want to think of it that simply. The US and the West isn't going to be nice. So what's their solution for the future? It has to be violating human rights to make the West great again. They need a war to with China not because China is doing bad things to others. That's just an excuse. They need war with China because they have to takeover and control China in order to control the world. China is the alternative from the West. Take away that alternative and the world is back in their control. Their number one problem is they're too chicken-shit and scared to lose their lives to do it. They would've already done it if they were so confident that it would end up in their favor.
