Several Taiwanese technology companies are helping Huawei Technologies Co. build infrastructure for an under-the-radar network of chip plants across southern China, an unusual collaboration that risks inflaming sentiment on a democratic island grappling with Beijing’s growing belligerence.
I hope you realise that countries recognise the People's Republic of China because it's politically expedient. It's lip service since the PRC government is easily offended. So for many countries, it's easier to just play along, shut up, and let's get to negotiating some lucrative trade deals instead. Public support among Western nations and their allies for Taiwan's continued autonomous existence remains high despite their governments recognising it as a province of China. You don't seem to understand how useful doublespeak is in international geopolitics. To pretend countries say what they mean and mean what they say is incredibly naïve.
Your behaviour is exactly why I filtered out Hexbear in my feed. There don't seem to be any actual socialists on Hexbear, just people knee-jerkingly defending any country that claims to be socialist without any regard to whether they practice what they preach. Social democracies like the Nordic countries are way closer to socialism than modern China is, but all you have to do is point your finger and say "liberal" and Hexbear users start foaming at the mouth. I say this as a citizen of the People's Republic of China and a socialist.
the nordic countries got a labor aristocracy of social fascism that was only allowed to exist due to proximity to the USSR and therefore a need to not appear obviously inferior in the eyes of the proletariat. since the USSR was illegally dissolved undemocratically against the will of its citizens the nordic countries have been dissolving their social democracies and will continue to do so in response to the tendency of the rate of profit to fall.

No, I understand perfectly well that the West is a fork tongued Empire of Lies. If you understood history at all, you'd know that the recognition of the PRC as the legitimate government of China was a movement that started in the newly decolonized countries of the global south due to Mao's principled anti-imperialist stance back when there wasn't much lucrative trade to be had at all.
Support for Taiwan among the Western public is irrelevant to the situation and driven by a profound historical ignorance, much like all of your argumentative flailing.

The vast majority of the world isn't part of the West. And they by and large do not pretend Taiwan is a country. Why do you think the vast majority of African countries do not even bother with a totally-not-an-embassy building for Taiwan? Who cares if a bunch of Swedes, Belgians, and Brits continue to pretend Taiwan is a country while their respective governments still pay homage to the PRC anyways? I don't know if you follow the news, but the West is becoming increasingly irrelevant.
Countries recognize the PRC because it's politically expedient... And not because they're currently the dominant economy not only in Eastern Asia but in the entire Eurasian continent? Not because, for the period under contention, they were literally governing over the largest single population in the world? What the fuck are you smoking?
By any definition, the PRC deserves recognition internationally.

Socialism:
This is a tragedy of history. That is all I will say on the matter.
you say that, but you keep fucking talking
