    Meanwhile China has successfully bodied the rest of the world into doing this hilarious diplomatic dance with Chinese Taipei where everyone has to use neutral language to pretend the Chinese Civil War didn't happen and there's no territorial issues.

    also dumbass chuds didn't even get it right of course. You would call that island its official name, "The Republic of China", if you were trying to... do whatever attempt at humor this it and annoy the CCP. "Taiwan" is a province of both the PRC and ROC, and is actually used by the Taiwanese independence movement to signify their separation from BOTH the PRC and the ROC. Real kuomintang heads would never use that because it implies that the mainland claims are relinquished.

      The only time I genuinely feel like I've got something on chuds and libs to make them speechless is to remind them only like 7 countries recognize Taiwan as a separate nation. The USA and all of Europe except the Vatican recognize the PRC.
