Last Taiwan election had US hawk oligarchist President elected, but Parliament majority was won by the sensible survivalist party. To help start a war, there is a proposal for McCarthyist military tribunal system where, like recent ROK martial law, "do you now, or have you ever, considered war to not provide a path to glorious happiness?" in order to jail anyone blocking war, and measures that would force China to intervene.
