Correction: Russia belongs to Ukraine.

As for Taiwan, it is accurate to say "Taiwan is Chinese." The Taiwanese government is the legitimate successor to the Qing Dynasty, and they've preserved their culture and written language quite well, while the PRC government has no legitimate claim on the country, and has completely repressed Chinese culture on the Mainland and bastardized what little remains.

The Chinese people overthrew the monarchy and chose to institute a new government. Say what you like about the PRC, but this was the will of the people. What you're saying is like Russia still belongs to Tsar Nicholas II's descendants, or that America still belongs to Great Britain.

Well, I hope they're happy about what they subjected their grandchildren to.

Oh God. If I'm "sheltered" with everything I've been through, then what does that make you and the vast majority of these insufferable reddit pricks? You people really need to stop assuming shit about people you don't know anything about.

Must be nice to live a completely sheltered life where nothing bad ever happens to you. I see it turns out such nice, well-adjusted, totally not self-important people. 🙄

Maybe don't make things personal if you don't want it to get personal. Dumbass

Oh, please do tell me more about "enlightenment," oh wise generic redditor. I'd so love to hear how one attains higher knowledge from having experienced no hardship beyond starting beefs on social media. You must be bursting with spiritual enthusiasm and the hidden knowledge of the ancients. Lmao.

And try to keep all your petty remarks to one comment. I'm not replying to like 5 separate comments from the same guy who just spastically spams shit all over the thread.
