Taiwan President Lai Ching-te is working with U.S. House Speaker Mike Johnson and other U.S. leaders right now in order to create personal ties outside of the spotlight when it comes to the Pacific and its diplomacy. Mainland China has called the Taiwan issue a "red line" not to be crossed in Sino-U.S. relations. Belligerence to the Taiwanese keeps getting worse and worse.

Since a lot of Trump voters are here on /townhall/ who think that dictatorships across the world should destroy their nearby democracies because feminism, homosexuality, socialism, and the like have made democracy as a concept too decadent... and those voters otherwise have an attitude about foreign policy that supports strongmen... I'm wondering what's the "red pill take on Taiwan"?

Like what about Taiwan having too many sympathies for Jews, too many sympathies for gay people, too many sympathies for poor people, et cetera or otherwise being too left-wing and emotionally soft in a "sissy" way... or like what other issues with Taiwan make it a positive thing for mainland China to take it over and eliminate its democracy? Why should Americans like that idea? What's your argument? How does it work?

As the saying goes: "red pill me" on why the Taiwanese are bad people! Please help me understand what's now going to be U.S. policy in 2025 and onwards!

Nobody actually thinks that. You're just schizophrenic.

Are you able to type an actual response to the OP that's not just trolling?

Like am I going to get a rational explanation as to why the Taiwanese are bad people according to the internet? Or no?

You're the one who is trolling if you make a dubious statement and then refuse to provide any evidence in support of it.

Can you at least pretend to explain why the hostility to the Taiwanese people exists?

Why am I supposed to think that the Taiwanese are bad people? Why are they so widely hated on the internet? Why should I have a problem with them?

Is there any valid argument that the internet can give other than "Fuck them!" without any logic behind it?

And if you're alongside the other poster trying to claim that nobody has any problem with Taiwan and nobody will ever, ever do anything against the Taiwanese people... like... I'm sure how to even begin to process your claim since while you'd call me idiotic, or insane, or whatever for disagreeing with you... your claim would be so obviously false its at the level of saying two plus two equals five...

How should I know?
Despite your schizo characterization, I don't think Taiwan should be wiped out.

>claim that nobody has any problem with Taiwan and nobody will ever, ever do anything against the Taiwanese people...
Nobody's said that. That's just another strawman of yours.
The point of contention was that you're claiming Trump supporters want Taiwan eliminated because "feminism, homosexuality, (and) socialism,".
Which, yeah, nobody actually thinks, because that's utterly insane.

The reason why people reacted badly is because you started the OP with broad generalizations and strawman arguments and it went downhill from there.
You've set the tone for the argument from the start and you don't sound like you're interested in sincere, good faith discussion.
