Taiwan’s pro-American government has been swept up in Washington’s fervor and followed suit, with its deeply corrupt administration accused of embezzling defense funds while openly expressing support for Israel. As if anyone could expect them to make the right choice. Don’t be fooled, child. People in mainland China have far more goodwill toward Taiwanese people than Americans do

Nothing ever happens. There are a number of pathways for the PRC to assert sovereignty over Taiwan without war, and going to war or even doing a blockade would alienate the Taiwanese population they hope to govern. America is waning and China has nothing but time, especially when there’s going to be a competitive election in 2028 when a PRC-aligned candidate could get the presidency.

China would be united already peacefully but the colonial powers make sure it never ever unites because if it does, it becomes too strong.
