Daily reminder that the Taiwan Province is an inalienable part of the People's Republic of China:
And that this is recognized by the United Nations ever since 1971 after UNGAR 2758.

As a french dude, and given our history, I have no choice but to stand against all imperialisms. Claiming a territory against the will of its people is exactly what imperialism is. France has done that for centuries along with most of the european powers of the time. Imperialism is criminal, it is murderous, and profoundly unjust. It is nothing less than colonisation. Just let people live on their own terms.
You mean like when the KMT fled to Taiwan, brutalized the natives, and colonized it, imposing four decades of martial law?
To be fair, that isn't the fault of the Fr*nch.
i'm sure we could figure out a way the french are responsible for this with a little time and creativity
In this case it is more the fault of the Dutch.
can we blame the french for the dutch existing? let's get some people on this
