>>”Did you miss the part of my post that said Taiwan was independent until China gained what they believe is comparable military power, when they believe that Taiwan will not be independent.”
Yes, I missed it, because it was never there.
>>”When you say China views things through a selective lens, that statement disregards that the USA does that as well.”
We can go off into any tangents you’d like. But that was not the topic of discussion. You might as well say my statement disregards the fact that the Chiefs won the Super Bowl. The discussion was about the differences between the CCP’s relationship with Taiwan, vs the United State’s relationships with its states.
The original post I responded to was why is China totally invested in taking back Taiwan, I offered my opinion, you’re the one who went off a tangent
