Well, a direct invasion of the US is a bad option and the world knows this.
The problem is with Russia is state controlled media. If Putin was eliminated, the world probably wouldn't know for at least a week and that would give their media enough time to tell the public who else they should like instead. It wouldn't surprise me if there is a pre-recorded video of Putin "stepping down" or "retiring".
If you have ever watched Russian state media, you will see they are probably worse than the Ministry of Truth. Their panel discussions are disgusting, actually. Four or five different people, with four or five different "views" that all converge on the same exact points: West evil, Putin god, Russia war machine invinsible, Russians have the best society on earth, everyone else is a nazi.
(I don't want to exclude the rest of the worlds media either. Most major outlets have their own agendas for sure, but Russians probably get the most blatant version. They don't even hide it.)
Russia state media sounds exactly like China’s state media lol
My grands really loves this show on China central television called Cross-Strait (海峽兩岸) that they will invite “unbiased” Taiwan experts how bad the current Taiwan Government is, how bad US is, how China has better military power to Taiwan, and how close the reunion is getting
Everything except for the Taiwan reunification getting closer is pretty hard to disagree with though, the US might end up making it happen much sooner than expected, just not in a way that's favorable to anyone involved.
In the long term, reunification is pretty inevitable; just by virtue of the US being a failing empire, china will eventually offer them a deal so much better than what the west can offer that it won't be refused.
China won’t offer a deal; currently in China it is really heavily promoted on China’s own social media for a war towards Taiwan to “leave the island but no one will be survived” ( 留島不留人) while promoting to the foreign country that peace is the only way to handle conflict
I can only assume that is directed to American troops on Taiwan, since the Taiwan residents are still PRC citizens.
No, they are targeting on every Taiwanese people that includes normal citizens. And you said “Taiwan residents are PRC citizens”, lol do you even know Chinese/Taiwan politics?
That seems unlikely, what exactly are they trying to reunify with? A few rocks and beaches in the pacific ocean?
Resources. Also to Xi, this is a really important milestone that he actually wants to do while he is still at the place.
C'mon, that's absurd, if the PRC wanted to murder everyone living in the RoC they wouldn't be letting them travel freely to and from the mainland.
You wouldn't have similar numbers of people supporting immediate independence and eventual reunification on Taiwan.
They are the frogs got baited into the Luke-warm water; once they are in the water, they gonna turn on the heat. The bait is getting hard recently with Xinjiang Travel incident (cannot find English news, this is the Chinese one: https://www.rfa.org/cantonese/news/htm/tw-youtuber-xinjiang-08272024072943.html). While trying to fina a news link, accidentally clicking in a so-called Xinjiang Travel vlog, and holy shit it is filled with Chinese bots….
Also, I read your article, and your comparison is weird; the graph inside already shows 31.5% for leaning towards independence and only 7.4% towards reunion in 2021
You know Radio Free Asia is literally funded by the CIA? It is the very definition of non-credible.
The graph shows the overwhelming majority want the status quo for now, with only ~10% wanting immediate independence. That portion would be a lot higher, and the "reunification now+eventually" segments would be almost zero if China's ambition was genocidal.
Oh, non-credible? Then let me just give you other sources:
Lmao
Sorry I really laughed out load for this. I will tell you why there are such people: because that’s how Chinese works. As long as you don’t talk about politics and any conflicts around China, they just look like normal people, they are kind and cheerful; but when you actually touched on the topic, they just turn into genocidal psychopaths. As a Chinese myself, this just made me stop talking about politics in the public; even when they try to move to a political topic like Messi Mess, I will just try to move to other topics
