Stop putting words into my mouth. To put it more bluntly, stop LYING about what I write.
Can you QUOTE what you claim that I write?
As I recall, another writer recently complained about being apparently attacked for allegedly being 'anti-China'
(or whatever) simply because he does not swallow all the breathless pro-Russian propaganda that many here spew.
I suspect that I know more than you from personal experience and study about Russian history and culture, which has
many facets good, bad, and in between. When I was there, none of my Russian friends was as pathetically credulous
as many writers here in believing everything that Russia's government claimed.
You have shown that you are fanatically close-minded and deeply intellectually dishonest.
I am very different from the object of hate that you fantasize that I must be.
But I really could not care less about you think because I regard you with absolute disdain.
I would like to see a reunification, preferably peaceful, of China. But if it means that Taiwan's people must be dominated
by a people who proudly believe that 'Might makes right' and would employ every means to crush their resistance,
then I may reconsider. When, if ever, is a political abstraction more important than many human lives?
If Germany and Austria can co-exist as independent countries (both speaking German), then China and Taiwan can too.
Mind you, I would prefer a reunification, but if it does not happen, then it should not be the end of the world.
When paranoid nationalistic Chinese--if that's what you are--treat China's sympathizers in general as their enemies,
they deserve to have far fewer friends.
Mainland and Taiwan probably can, they pretty much coexisted quite well until now. The main problem of co-existence of Mainland-Taiwan has nothing to do with anything you're saying. It has to do with the fact that the current structure of Mainland-Taiwan's socio-economic interdependency is rooted upon the US-led global order and international division of labor. It has nothing to do with this "chauvinism-vs-feminism" rhetoric i presume you've gotten onto.
However, we all know that such US-led global order is NOT sustainable. Because the US is benefitting less and less from this order which she has to put resources into maintaining, and at the same time, China's development pressure gives her less and less room to hand over profits and market shares of certain key (high value-added) industrial specializations to outside parties like Taiwan. This implies that both China and the US are become less and less interested in maintaining a good Taiwan-Mainland co-existing relations.
This is very very different from the Germany and Austria, which are not only both of the same economic block (EU), but also has pretty much the same level of economic development. Taiwan is pretty much a developed society, so their industry is only going down hill from here. Mainland China is still developing, she has a lot more potential areas and markets to advance and expend into. Germany and Austria can have a pretty good division of labor that could have them developing at the same time.
For Mainland-Taiwan, the state of things will be more and more Taiwanese industry losing market shares to mainland's industry, until they have no room but to integrate. At that point, it will be like the US will NO LONGER have command over Taiwanese industries, and can NO LONGER force them to stop supplying components to Mainland companies.
This is not unlike Ukraine's economic problem. Ukrainian industries has very little (almost none) high end manufacturing product (final and semi-final product) that is integrated with the EU's economy. They are integrated with Russia:
1. their nuclear power stations uses Russian standards and can only accept Russian standard fuel rods.
2. their arms industry are pretty much entirely USSR/Russian standard, they can ONLY sell to countries which continues to use Russia standard systems.
3. their industrial structure was design to be part of the greater Russian/USSR/Russo-sphere industrial complex.
......the list goes on
If the EU was proactively wanting to integrate Ukraine, they could have went ahead with many collaboration project with Ukraine, for example, in their navy shipbuilding, aircrafts, armor vehicle, etc. Yet we see almost no such projects.
Couldn't one of the EU countries make a version of their multi-national frigate together with Ukraine equipped with Ukrainian sub-systems and engines? If Germany and France can make collaboration project like the MGCS (Main Ground Combat System) tanks, couldn't they try to do similar things with Ukrainian flagship military products? It doesn't even have to sell, but the act of integration is at least a genuine gesture of intention to integrate.
Okey, Everyone, I will stop posting any new posts with the word "TAIWAN" in it.
