ever play reversi, or risk?
Gavin Gray
No, not really
Elijah Russell
She is a very powerful and ancient witch queen. They cannot look into her eyes because she will take their skin.
Carter Howard
The Chinese Communist Party considers Taiwan to be a rebel-held province. Imagine what Ukraine's reaction would be if Nancy Pelosi visited the leaders of Donetsk.
Ryan Barnes
The US officially considers Taiwan to be China.
Nathan Allen
It's literally another century of humiliation. Which is the Chinese equivalent of another shoah.
Imagine that Alaska unilaterally decided to invite the speaker of the Russian Duma without the consent of the federal government of the United States. Do you think it would be okay? That's the same thing for China if Taiwan welcomes Nancy Pelosi.
Jayden Peterson
It was because it was assumed that the Muricans would escort her plane with USAF jets, which would be a provocation of China because it's saying "we can fly out jets into your territory and there's nothing you can do about it. Oh wait, Taiwan's not yours, is it?"
Instead Pelosi flew commercial and snuck into Taiwan because she doesn't want AAMs rammed up her ass (or she might, who knows with politicians) and now the chink crackpots are just making the usual noises.
Evan Barnes
Political theater
Samuel Baker
Let me get this straight..
So the Chinese are afraid that if this old lady visits Taiwan. She's going to influence Taiwan to rebel against the Chinese? Is she Palpatine?

Ayo, no cap china be like yo, Taiwan is our crib. Fr fr

The Chinese economy is cratering. They need a distraction for the populace.
There has been Speaker of the House that has visited Taiwan before with no issue.There has been Senators that visited Taiwan earlier this year with no problem.
This is theater for the people. They don't care we are laughing at them. We are not the target audience.
Levi Fisher
My question is why are the Chinese supposedly upset about Pelosi visiting the Chinese and why do people keep calling China “Taiwan”
Jordan Diaz
Xi seems like the kind of guy who would care if people are laughing
Brandon Carter
Officially, yes. Pelosi seems to tow the unofficial line however.
>“Today the world faces a choice between democracy and autocracy,” Pelosi said. “America’s determination to preserve democracy here in Taiwan and around the world remains ironclad.”
>Pelosi added the U.S. “will not abandon our commitment to Taiwan and we are proud of our enduring friendship.”
Taiwan is where all the refugees from the Chinese civil war fled. They have been considered to be rebels by the Chinese Communist Party since 1949.
Jonathan Morales
Okay, so it was a game of chicken and China lost. So China looks weak right now. Giving more power to Taiwan to rebel against them.
Landon Adams
This
Taiwan is about to be Ukrained
Hudson Carter
Ah yes a turf war. This all becoming clear to me now.
Jaxson Lee
Not non Chinese. The Chinese don't consider non chinese human.
Hunter Hernandez
I see.. so this is also an excuse to invade Taiwan.. so this old lady also caused more problems
Hudson Brooks
Wood!
Chase Gonzalez
To be fair that is a fairly common thing in Asian society.
Carson Watson
I know someone that this happened to. It's fucked up.
