Unfashionable.

I literally had a friend try to convince me that this all demonstrated that Macron is an enlightened statesmen, merely by virtue of taking the opposite line of the US.

I am no defender of US foreign policy. But if someone can be confused into simping for Xi Jinping merely by it being an opportunity to disagree with the US, then you might be a complete idiot.

Question: If Macron is correct, that China's desire to unify Taiwan with the mainland by force is no different than the EU's desire for unity, then why didn't France and others threaten to invade the UK over Brexit?

Anybody who pretends like Beijing's point of view on the matter is something one should be sympathetic to -- as Macron did by saying it's no different than European unity -- is deeply morally confused. And can, quite frankly, kiss my ass.

Free the Chinese people! Down with the CCP! Down with dictators!

End the genocide in Xinjiang!

Taiwan is a country! ๐Ÿ‡น๐Ÿ‡ผ

My genetics disagree. Shellfish is a perfectly healthy food for most people. But it would kill me given my allergy.
