I was born and raised in the UNITED STATES as the child of CHINESE people from TAIWAN.
I appreciate China. I respect China. My beloved grandmother was born in the 22nd year of the Republic.
After her passing, I asked my mother "婆婆喜歡的是臺灣呢? 還是中華民國?"

The century of humiliation” didn’t happen, in part because there was no “China” for it to happen to. Whenever you recycle this meme, you’re just recycling authoritarian propaganda.
This is the exact attitude Japan at large feels about WW2, and is responsible for how Japan treats China today.
They genuinely believe they are above China because they “won” against China.
No runbacks though.
@CecilG90112976 Japan was defeated by the US, but Japan in a practical sense won against China in the 2nd Sino-Japanese war.
US influence is declining all over Asia and Japan in the future will inherit the stockpiles of US weapons, ammunition, missiles, artillery and transportation.
@mhmd_sys@WhatAre89137327 lmao no
Taiwan is literally the best example of why it's unnecessary. Post-KMT retreat saw the best developmental days due to central governance
This does not change that nuclear sovereignty was achieved under Mao btw. And there's a very good argument that nuclear sovereignty is more important than any economic progress. This is where the Chiang regimes failed.
I get a lot of hate for this take, but Mao paved the way for China by dying.
This is where the PRC and Taiwan ROC diverged. Mainland China ramped with the loss of their best-known leader, while Taiwan cratered when they lost the Chiang regime.

@AngelicaOung The CR was only an impediment to China's progress. China developed afterwards because the persecutions and killings finally stopped, which ended decades upon decades of "war".

the sinophobic racism from this self-proclaimed Chinese-American is one thing, but the belief that America would ever let a nation not called Israel have anything is maximum stupidity of a medical level
@DukeNukem1996 "let them have China"
my guy you cannot be this goddamn stupid
they literally almost had the entire eastern hemisphere roughly 25 years after the Empire's end, and it was the US *again* who collapsed them
The USA have blocked the Somali Referee Omar Artan from entering the USA, the Referee who is rated the best in Africa was blocked at entry, so he got the Somalian embassy to give him a Diplomatic Passport.
But the USA still refuses to let him in.
The USA need to be disqualified
