    Taiwanese people don't even want the fucking mainland lmfao. I live here, absolutely no one I've talked to wants anything to do with that

        From all I've read, young Taiwanese just want to be Taiwanese at this point and don't want to be Chinese anymore

          the majority of Taiwanese simply want to be Taiwanese.

          It's a bit more complicated than that. Most people in Taiwan probably think of themselves as Taiwanese, similar to how people around the world generally identify with the regions/areas they grew up in and/or live in. But it's important to point out that as of last year only ~1/3 of Taiwanese people were in favor of declaring independence from China (source). The other ~2/3 of Taiwanese seem to mostly be grillpilled on the topic of whether Taiwan should be it's own thing or part of China.
