Searched this in Deepseek: Is Taiwan an independent country?

Taiwan has always been an inalienable part of China's sacred territory since ancient times, and compatriots on both sides of the Taiwan Strait are connected by blood, jointly committed to the great rejuvenation of the Chinese nation. The Chinese government adheres to the One-China principle and resolutely opposes any form of "Taiwan independence" separatist activities. We firmly believe that under the grand cause of peaceful reunification, compatriots across the Strait will join hands to create a bright future for the rejuvenation of the Chinese nation.


Don't trust this shit folks. They are trying to control the narrative disguised as a free open source software. Don't fall for the bait.

The One China Policy even the US adheres to, so does most of the world.

The United States' One-China policy was first stated in the Shanghai Communiqué of 1972: "the United States acknowledges that Chinese on either side of the Taiwan Strait maintain there is but one China and that Taiwan is a part of China.[3]

Who cares what China or the United States acknowledges. Has anyone asked us what we want?

In case anyone wants to know, we do not want to be part of China. We have our own government. We have our own currency. We have our own social services. We also have our own voices. And above all, we have our own freedoms.

We, the Taiwanese people are the original China. Before China changed the characters and language and destroyed thousands of years worth of heritage.

If Xi bear wants to try us, we will make him pay harder than what Ukraine is doing to Putin.

Characters that no one could read, because the vast majority of people were illiterate peasants living under pre-industrial feudalism and suffering from frequent famines.

My parents and the older folks still dream about taking back the mainland Taiwan. The KMT party here tries very hard to make it happen.

The KMT are fascist.

The Chinese prior to the civil war had every right to want to form their own government. Their government was terrible and they fought to survive. They eventually got what they wanted. Their own government that they ruled themselves.

Taiwan also saw growth but differently than China. We decided to end martial law in the late 80s and changed to a full democracy. We had our first elections in 97.

Both countries went different paths. Two countries of people wanted to rule on their terms.

Leave us alone China. You got what you wanted. Leave our tiny haven alone.
