      Agreed, I wasn’t exactly sure how well it would translate countries, but it was the first solid thing that came to mind.

            Ay least we agree, the people living in Taiwan do not believe they are a part of China then, correct?

              people living in taiwan are probably not a monolithic block.

              but the cia has been doing some mighty propaganda work over there, so who knows if they think being a colony is worth it.

                So, the people of Taiwan, who largely support the current government there are all too stupid to not fall under the influence of the CIA?

                Sounds racist af to me… those dumb Taiwanese are incapable of knowing what they want, without a daddy state telling them what is good for them.

                Ok, colonizer.
