I am both selfish and chaotic. I value self-gratification and control; I want to have things my way, preferably now. At best, I'm entertaining and surprising; at worst, I'm hedonistic and violent.
Six mistakes mankind keeps making century after century: Believing that personal gain is made by crushing others; Worrying about things that cannot be changed or corrected; Insisting that a thing is impossible because we cannot accomplish it; Refusing to set aside trivial preferences; Neglecting development and refinement of the mind; Attempting to compel others to believe and live as we do

That has nothing, whatsoever, to do with missile tests first of all.
Second of all, why would China want to take over Taiwan just to run it into the ground?
That would be like if Russia took over Japan and shut down all trade in/out.
All you would be doing is increasing the strain on your own economy and hurting yourself.
Of course it has nothing to do with anything... All it does is give TW a harsh remainder that China can take over TW anytime they feel like.
Take over our future , change what we have built ,
Nope , nothing to do with it at all!
When China take over Taiwan , it'll be just another extension of China , and everything it represents.
And Taiwanese DESPISE that. Because we cant stand how China treat human rights.
And the part high light in red , the "your" part really doesnt work. While you guys see China / Taiwan as just same old "chinese"
but to us , we are like Fire and Water. When China takes over , it wouldnt be OUR economy and OURSELVES anymore , it'll be China's
see the problem?
Just for reference , all the discussion on Taiwan going off topic away from Korea isnt by my choice .
As you guys can see , im mostly just replying. As i received Z*E*R*O PM about discussing it somewhere else ,
i guess there is no other choice :3
The real issue i believe is , you guys that are not caught up in the conflict really really have no idea how different Taiwan from China is.
Reading comprehension.
You lack it.
IF China took over Taiwan and then ran the formerly Taiwanese region into the ground economically, as you're suggesting, they would be hurting only themselves.
Do you get it now or do you want me to draw a picture in paint?

1st , thats a very rude thing to say.
2nd , quote me on the part i underlined , where did i say that?
The part high light in red , i doubt that very much , considering the FW resin thread and the 2010 FW thread speaks clear enough.
Due to the number of alerts logged against this thread so far, I'm going to lock it until one of the mods who doesn't think that the entire OT forum should be just purged with flame comes along to have a look at it...
