  • the DNC has utterly failed us.

    Bernie is right in that Dems need to focus on inequality and not identity politics. But the DNC didn’t do shit. The DNC isn’t a person with policies of its own. It was individual politicians that failed us.

    the DNC gave us Trump, twice.

    The DNC didn’t give you shit. VOTERS gave you Donald Trainwreck.

    I am SO sick of this “the DNC is a person that gives us things” shit. IDENTITY POLITICS is the problem. Not focusing on INCOME INEQUALITY is the problem. INDIVIDUAL POLITICIANS who don’t understand these things are a problem. The DNC is simply an organization chosen by the primary voters every 4 years with nearly complete turnover in that time period. Focus on the right problem. Whoever wins the most primary delegates IS THE DNC. And if somebody like Bernie wins, THEY ARE THE DNC for the next 4 years.



  • Conservatives love of lies fits in perfectly with Trump’s lifelong pathological lying skills. I think this is a big reason Trump ran as a Republican. Dems would have spotted Trump’s character flaws way to easily for him to run as a Dem.

  • On top of that, the British only introduced a pretty limited form of democracy to Hong Kong shortly before it was supposed to relinquish control over the territory

    On top of that, the Chinese dictator crushed democracy with military and police force in violation of the unification agreement – proving 100% it absolutely can not be trusted.

    The PRC saw this as an attempt by the British to continue interfering with the right for Chinese self determination.

    The Chinese have no rights whatsoever in the PRC regime because the Chinese cannot chose their own leaders and determine their own country’s destiny. By “right for Chinese self determination” you actually mean the DICTATOR’s right (one single individual!!) to prevent one billion Chinese citizens from running their own country as they see fit.


  • Even so, it’s important to understand

    That’s not the slightest bit important. The Republic of China views the PRC as interfering with China’s self determination. The Republic of China gets to choose its own leaders but the PRC is a dictatorship not chosen by the people. That means that the ROC speaks for millions more Chinese than the PRC does.

    If there is to be a peaceful resolution,

    The only possible terms of reunification would be the end of the Communist dictatorship. In such an event Taipei would likely be the initial temporary capital of a unified China because that’s where the experience of democracy is.
