So guy who has never been to, or been raised in China wants to judge his mother’s concerns when she has spent a majority of her life there. I don’t know much about the history of Taiwan, but when it comes to “ethnicity” wouldn’t indigenous Taiwanese people and people who actually live on the island have more of a reason to hang said flag rather than some kid who’s family isn’t even from there?
No, the actual indigenous Taiwanese people probably see the flag of the ROC about the same as indigenous people in North America see the US or Canada flags. When the nationalists fled the mainland and established themselves on Taiwan they proceeded to conduct a massive campaign of repression against the indigenous population. Don't forget that Taiwan was under decades of military dictatorship. That flag does not represent Taiwan, it represents a former government of China that was rejected by the Chinese people. The flag was imposed on Taiwan by the butthurt losers of a civil war that never ended because the US has been meddling and preventing a resolution of the issue for over seventy years now.
Thank you for giving details on this. I knew about the dictatorship but was a little unsure if Taiwan had an indigenous population or was uninhabited before.
He’s not even from Taiwan, the text say mainland China
Redditors hate their parents
Americans try not to support fascists challenge 1000% fail
More like useless corrupt bureaucracy tbh.
Checked his profile and he’s against universal healthcare, Palestine, and hates his family
Hope he got a good beating.
"Ethnic flag" 💀
But imagine this scenario flipped on its head and this was an American college student wishing to display pride in his Southern heritage by hanging a Confederate flag. They don't want to hang the US flag because it's associated with the Union, so they choose Lee's battle flag to hang.
Imagine how the comments would be rightfully ripping into OP, but now because of Anti-Chinese propaganda, the nuance is completely lost on Westerners.
“Ethnic flag”
Inb4 he next display Qing flag because at this level of ignorance it's bound to happen.
Nah, he'll hang the Five-Colored Flag and have it be mistaken as a pride flag.
If anything, he believes the imperialist propaganda that the Yuan and Qing dynasties weren't actually China -- invented specifically to justify the Japanese occupation.
their mom is based ngl
Based mom
Listen to your mum, mate, her head seems screwed on straight
Nobody anywhere on that post has told him to maybe ask his mom why she's so against ROC. They just assume she's been brainwashed by the communists.
My mother would have murdered me if I flew a fucking ROC flag anywhere when I was in college, this shit is lucky he's still alive.
