Taiwan/reddit island (look at the number of Taiwanese working in China; IIRC Taiwanese millennials are relatively miserable and pessimistic about their future)
Singapore/neolib island (only elites and high-income immigrants love it; the citizenry think it's a miserable place. They also abuse their lower-wage migrants, typical neolibs)
yeah. The west talks a big game about it's asian colonies, but just doesn't have the numbers to back it up. Also I thought you were referring to the actual reddit island for a second.
a couple times some redditors have tried to get an island so they could start their own country. It's like those roving money pits from tumblr back in the day except way more smug and less likely to admit they got scammed. I watched a video about it, it was pretty ableist in it's language so I won't recommend it. The information probably is out there on youtube, or you could look it up on reddit.
