  • So, again, your original assertions are horseshit. The PRC is very explicitly trying to change the status quo of Taiwan having de facto independence. We know this from repeated, unequivocal official and unofficial statements about “reunification”. This article is, in fact, about exactly that.

    Your assertion that the US is trying to change the status quo by supporting the DPP might make sense in a world where the PRC wasn’t supporting the KMT to an ever greater extent; either they’re both equally trying to disrupt the status quo through political support or they’re both maintaining the status quo by supporting opposing parties. You can’t paint a “US guilty, PRC innocent” picture out of that no matter how hard you try.

    But then, of course, suggesting either major political party in Taiwan actually supports or is proposing a change to the status quo isn’t really true either, is it?
