Realistically Taiwan is far more closely linked to China culturally and economically than the west, as a matter of fact they're extremely dependent on trading with the mainland.

wait for a year when the US department will try to bake shit on how taiwan is actually a synthesis of the best of Asia and the West.

As a matter of fact, there is a taiwanese talk show had a dude talking about how the democratization of Taiwan showing that Taiwan is superior contrary to the barbaric rule of law in the mainland (mainly referring to Hu jintao and covid)

The dude quoted Steven pinker for his thesis
