    Who the fuck cares about official claims? I guess the war in Ukraine is about denazifying since that’s the official statement :)

    Realistically though, official claims are diplomatic UN roleplay and actions are what matters; the US states that Taiwan is not independent but arms the absolute cock out of what they claim is ch*na.

        I didn’t specify which claim it was, I pointed out how hollow and contextual those claims are.

        Is Taiwan claiming to be independent in the chambers of the UN? No.

        Does it act, and is it acted upon as if it was independent? Yes.

        Am I a cop? No.

        Am I the cop who arrested your mom in her bed chamber last night after she confessed to have been real naughty? Yes.

        It’s fascinating to see someone come across nuance for the first time.
