The majority of that age range still considers China an enemy, but a tiny fraction of ambivalent onlookers out of an overwhelming majority of a reflexively anti-China populace is enough for the Economist to dedicate an article to a fucking YouGov poll.

It’s just another pearl-clutching “what’s wrong with today’s youths” headline to panic the elderly while flattering compliant millennials/zoomers for being one of the few (despite still being the majority!) “good ones” that march goose-step with consensus Western political thought.

Interview snippet for the incredulous deboonkers

21 > 1.6

If you’re only looking at the “immediate action” options it’s 4.5% independence vs 1.6% unification

Grouping the camps together, the graph shows 25% vs 8% currently while not too long ago in 2018 it was 20% vs 16%. It’s a contentious issue, and opinions wax and wane depending on the diplomatic situation with the only consistency being that the majority of people favor maintaining the status quo. However, I think as more of the older generations die off, much like in South Korea, identification with a cross-border national project will likely diminish.

The DPP (pro-Independence party) polling seems to differ a bit from National Chengchi University’s yearly poll where “maintain status quo indefinitely/decide later” were the two most popular selections.

It seems similar to the last time an office building caught fire like this in China. The building was fairly fire resistant except for the facade which was made of materials that burn up really fast.

“Let’s work together and topple this invisible wall” Mr. Kwon said in the Twitter post

He described himself as “dedicated to overturning communism.”

Hoh boy

Ha, I knew it! I knew the OP was a Kremlin asset and it wasn’t just me grasping for reasons to not engage with an article from a credible mainstream source because it presents an inconvenient reality.

You should clarify that you mean Nazi collaborators

Hannah Arendt and her (quite literally) Nazi-loving ass have been a disaster for political discussion in the anglosphere

omg

chauvinist wojack: they don’t know they’re being oppressed

I really only see people wear masks at the Asian market anymore. I always keep one on me and put it on if it’s crowded but tbh I’ve resigned to being driven to early grave by everyone that treats it like a joke. Already been seriously infected with it twice in the past year, and on top of my hypertension and family history of heart disease and stroking out at 40, I’ll be lucky to see another 10-15 years.

I’m not debating. The original conversation was that you said communists supported Russia because they think it’s communist, and I clarified that they really don’t.
