Date: January 16th, 2017 2:12 PM Author: Boyish shimmering background story sanctuary that's why we didn't invade Syria, because we didn't want to go to war with a World Power over a shit-stain country that nobody (except that world power) cares about.

Status quo is best for everyone, and I think that most disinterested people know that (although there are of course passionate people on both sides). The wildcard is should China feel humiliated by it. (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=3493072&forum_id=2#32385217) |

Date: January 16th, 2017 1:21 PM Author: Adventurous Beta University I think going back it was to exploit the rift between China and russia. Now it's one of those zombie conflicts. Keep in mind these aren't always bad. Great pretext for us to keep troops in the region and bolster arms sales. (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=3493072&forum_id=2#32384812) |

Date: January 16th, 2017 1:47 PM Author: territorial gay wizard principal's office There are plenty of people in Taiwan--who have won every election since independence except for two--who do not want to be independent. Their opinions range from begging for an invasion by mother China to just preferring the status quo. It's complex and their minds operate differently about this w/r/t questions re: personal identity, what it means to be Chinese (which is the most important thing to many of them), etc. (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=3493072&forum_id=2#32384952) |

Elections weren't exactly free or fair early on, but more recently they have been, and it's essentially single-issue voting re: independence.

Date: January 16th, 2017 2:26 PM Author: territorial gay wizard principal's office It's part One China / one true Chinese identity, and all of the shame / losing face aspects that come along with the disrespect shown by an ungrateful Taiwan.
It's also the thought that while Taiwan was ahead a bit economically in the 1970s and 1980s, that China has now surpassed it and is big brother and that Taiwan is missing out.
More to the first point, but there's also a sensitivity to the Japanese sympathizing in Taiwan -- it's repulsive to the Chinese nationalists. |
