    KMT started dialog officially repatriating in 2014 when US decided to run the sunflower movement that put DPP in place. DPP is currently crashing in the polls, and everybody expects KMT to get back in power at which point dialog will restart. KMT politicians have already flown to the mainland ahead of that. If you think people in Taiwan are stupid enough to let the west turn Taiwan into another Ukraine, then what else is there to tell you.

    Meanwhile, not sure what this dictatorship you’re yapping about is. Given that you don’t even know what political system China has, your opinions on the subject of Taiwan can be safely discarded.

      Lol. I guess being Taiwanese and reading first hand news and social media posts straight from China makes me less educated than you on the subject. There are multiple YouTube channels by Chinese people who had fled from China talking about their experiences with life under the CCP. Few also even have Chinese police force pressure their families back home to threaten them to come back to China. So I am very well aware of what China is and what they impose on their people. Safe to say that your opinion on Chinese politics can be disregarded.

      And I don’t even know where you got your poll data, cause KMT isn’t even looking remotely good in the polls. This is a news site generally regarded as having a more Chinese bias, and even they were reporting that the DPP is winning in polls, not to mention it’s also KMT’s SECOND time nominating a mayor who is still in term to run for presidency. The last one lost against DPP and had his mayor title recalled by vote mind you. This time around it’s Ko who is in better position to compete with the DPP. You know who also got invited and flew to China? Ko’s team. So you saying everyone expects KMT to have a comeback is just talking out of your ass.

        I guess we’ll just wait and see won’t we.
