"Is upholding fascist racial supremacy wrong? No, I've merely been upholding the fascist racial supremacy of the wrong people."

Taiwan should have used military force - or again, that might makes right.

"Should have" used military might? Are you from a parallel dimension where the First United Front didn't end in the Shanghai Massacre? Tell me how it went down in your reality then. Chiang embraced the CPC from behind with hugs and kisses as a show of his appreciation for their alliance against the warlords?

I don't have a morality problem because Chiang was an incompetent and corrupt jackass who started the civil war that he ended up losing on the mainland and having to flee to Taiwan Island.

It is about what you believe justifies a nation's independence

My arguments as to international law go precisely towards your factually incorrect and repeated assertion that Taiwan Island is a "nation" or a "country". You accuse me of "deflection" but you repeatedly asserted a factual and legal inaccuracy and refuse to address it. Your problem if you can't engage with the argument, not mine. There is no such thing as a country or nation called "Taiwan" in the world.

The outcomes of civil wars is widely acknowledged by both state practice and opinio juris as being a legitimate factor in the determination of sovereignty over a territory. If you don't believe me, ask the Confederate States of America and the Republic of Vietnam about their experiences and get back to me.

There is no "morality problem" because there is no issue of morality here. Morality is not a factor in international law.

Ngl it was a difficult choice between NatSec Talking Points Journalist and School of Raytheon Rainbow Washing Bard.

International recognition in line with the principles of customary international law as codified in the Montivedeo Convention make right, but that's not very snappy.

Skill issue. If I wanted to have a recognized independent country I would simply win the civil war instead of losing and then hiding in America's skirt like a coward.

I took two levels of journalist before I multiclassed into rogue.

The Taiwan province English-speaking journalist class are shitting themselves because they know they'll be up against the wall when reunification comes.

Waiting for memes to all converge on crabs.

I'm sure that the admission staff will take your application very seriously if you claim you were James Bonding it up for a few years.

That's not how employment NDAs work. They never forbid a candidate from disclosing that they worked for a company and the general nature of their work. They just forbid the candidate from talking about specific knowledge gained at the company.

Do not use this excuse because it's an instant red flag for anyone who knows even a little about the hiring process.

Please America. Please scuttle NAFTA over your dinosaur pickup truck industry. Nothing would be funnier.
