    Your link says literally nothing about secession, despite my claim being about secession

    Someone that doesn’t consider themselves Chinese is seceding from China.

    You don’t believe China has a right to self-defense

    They do. Invading an island is as little self-defence as bombing Iran.

    You hold the position that is aligned with Western imperialist goals (“Since when can you choose your neighbours?”)

    ‘Since when can you choose your neighbours’ has nothing to do with ‘Western imperialist goals’ but is a fact that affects all countries globally.

    And then you pivot to Korea in a way that is so disingenuous

    Except it isn’t. The PRC/ROC split is the result of the Chinese Civil War, just as the NK/SK split is the result of the Korean Civil War. Both wars ended in a status quo where neither side controls the entirety, de facto resulting in two separate countries since decades.

    So, if you negate the possibility of such an outcome in the Chinese question, you should negate this possibility in the Korean question and hence argue for South Korea, as the stronger part, to be entitled to force ‘reunification’ with the crippling North, which is rightfully theirs.

      This is why you’re not worth talking to.

      They do. Invading an island is as little self-defence as bombing Iran.

      You’re a completely disingenuous person.

      ‘Since when can you choose your neighbours’ has nothing to do with ‘Western imperialist goals’ but is a fact that affects all countries globally.

      You don’t argue in good faith.

      The PRC/ROC split is the result of the Chinese Civil War, just as the NK/SK split is the result of the Korean Civil War

      You have a delusional grasp of history that serves only your pre-selected conclusions.

      Both wars ended in a status quo where neither side controls the entirety, de facto resulting in two separate countries since decades.

      And your pre-selected conclusions are exactly matched to Western imperialist goals.

      So, if you negate the possibility of such an outcome in the Chinese question, you should negate this possibility in the Korean question and hence argue for South Korea, as the stronger part, to be entitled to force ‘reunification’ with the crippling North, which is rightfully theirs.

      And you argue like a right-wing youtuber with zero self-awareness for how transparent you are.
