ig the analogy is hard for me when its implying amerikkka should invade a country to liberate it. also yall are adding a lot of details i didnt get from the image, like now this is about colonization, they didnt say they werent cool with it in the image. what if the world was made of pudding, sorry im not mad enough about something that didnt happen and we dont know any details of. i cant think of a time an analogy has ever made anything easier to understand for me, im not saying this is my take on taiwan, id rather just have that situation explained to me. maybe this image would work for someone who thinks amerikkka invading a country could ever do something good for them

It did kinda happen though? US invaded Puerto Rico, colonized it, and continues to occupy it. You might not know it but it's US history, I'm not adding my own spin to this.

That's why I said this analogy is a little off, although I get the gist.
