Liberals supporting the One China Policy? Well, I guess these people do not stand for anything except for what is trendy or for where the money comes from. And I have nothing but utter contempt for these smoothbrains. But authentic Liberals would side with Taiwan if they compared their policies to China’s. Taiwan is a capitalist country, but they have rules in place to limit the power of corporations and protect the working and middle classes. They have gay marriage, and conversion therapy for same sex attracted teenagers is banned. Racism in Taiwan is no worse than racism in western countries, except for being racist towards Chinese people, although you cannot really blame Taiwanese people in this case. Finally, look at how Taiwan handled Covid. Contract tracing, closed borders, and in the end, very few cases and very few deaths; all this without ever locking down their people.

China, on the other hand, is one of the most crony capitalist countries in the world. There is no gay marriage, no civil partnerships, and films and TV shows with gay characters are banned with few exceptions. Some healthcare agencies treat homosexuality as a mental illness and several homosexuals have been sent to be "cured". I heard in an article that their military is one of the few institutions where homosexuality is relatively tolerated, although I cannot verify this. Plus, a lot of Chinese people don’t like black people. I saw a video from Serpentza about how bad racism in China is, and the government encourages it. Let’s not forget that Covid started in China, and it got as bad as it did because the Chinese government pretended it wasn’t such a big deal.

Most of these American liberals would not care if you pointed this out, because they’re just following the money. But these people would be put in concentration camps if America was like China, because these people are subversive. The Green Party in Ireland are exactly like those American CCP-liberals, and they are a member of our corrupt government coalition.
