Arming Taiwan is a pathway to war.
Standing up to tyranny is often a pathway to violence.
That's why US hegemony must be resisted at all costs.
The United goddamn States is not fucking standing up to tyranny lol
War will happen between China and Taiwan regardless. Just like China vs Hong Kong.
Hong Kong was always going to happen because that was an agreed upon conclusion. China violated promises that it made (one country, two systems my ass), but Hong Kong was a part China. Taiwan has never been under the control of the current government of mainland China. At this point Taiwan would likely be a separate country if it didn't have China's dagger at its throat telling it that even a breath of declaring independence will result in immediate invasion.
Reunification will happen, like Hong Kong.
I don't remember Hong Kong starting WW3 though. 🤔
regardless if the people wanted it or not, yay for Xi...
also a reunification War doesn't have to surmount to a World War.
A war between Taiwan and China would absolutely become a World War.
Reunification can be peaceful like it was with Hong Kong.
This is satire right?
There is no war in Ba Sing Se
can always rely on lemmy.world accounts to say the dumbest shit possible 😂
It's fucking unhinged
