  1. What’s great about Xi’s peace proposal. Is it emphasizes respecting sovereignty and borders. Can you imagine the relief in Taiwan!! Even possibly Tibet, and Xinjiang.

  2.  @Liboch  I get what you are saying. The threat is constant, and persistent. But the Taiwanese, seem to have learned to live with it. The CCP, does use bluster as a leading talking point. Having been recently to Taiwan, before HK, and China. With family in China. Taiwan culture, is amazing in contrast. The people are polite, and grounded. It is a high trust, and considerate society. Of course it isn't ideal, no place is. The Chinese and others there, did not experience the soul crushing Mao era, onward. My wife is visiting family in Beijing right now. She is meeting up with old school, college, and work friends. She is very disappointed, in what they re all interested in. Money, seems to be the only thing they care about. It's like they have lost their soul. Another thing about Taiwan, they keep a low profile. If you speak out, china has a hammer, cuts you off. I could not find any pro Taiwan T-shirts, no Taiwan for ever, Taiwan freedom, kind of things. Only saw the flag, on a few places. But , don't mistake that, for a lack of pride, and determination.

  4. Huge jealousy, within Team-a-holes. Iran, Saudi Arabia, North Korea, other dictators, etc

  5. They are only showing, what they want to show, anyway. The real talk, is in private. But knowing Mandarin, would allow you to see, the home propaganda in China. The messaging contrast. There is a group of Chinese, who care about their country, that show it. The Great Translation Movement.

  6. A happy dictator, could have heard. That the last fertile Uighur woman, is living with a Chinese man. Evil smile.
