He is hated by all Chinese, both in mainland China and in Taiwan, for good reasons. Under his rule, Mao's six relatives were killed by him or the warlords with him, including Mao's first wife and two brothers and one sister. Not to mention ordinary Chinese people, especially poor farmers. On April 12, 1927, he ordered the killing of all members of the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) and even the left-wing members of his own Guomindang (GMD) party. In just two years, a total of 300,000 were killed by his orders. Among the 300,000 victims, only 50,000 were CCP members, while 250,000 were members of the left wing of his own party or people who disagreed with him. Under his leadership, China lost Mongolia to the Soviet Union. During the 228 Taiwan uprising, he killed tens of thousands of native Taiwanese. He was a murderer to both the poor people in mainland China and in Taiwan. This was the reason he was ousted from mainland China, with a total of 8 million of his army losing 90% in just three years from 1947 to 1949 to Mao-led CCP. That was the majority of the Chinese people's choice.
This is also the reason why some Taiwanese people hate China, due to his role and the crimes he committed against the local Taiwanese people during his rule. Consequently, they wrongly harbor hatred towards the entirety of China, as they believe Jiang represented the whole country. Some of them even desire independence, and for this, Jiang is solely to blame. We will strive to achieve reunification peacefully
