This was hands down my favorite bit from the article:
Some even maintain that every dollar spent on Ukraine is a waste of taxpayer money that could be better used on domestic priorities, such as combating the spread of fentanyl.
These arguments are misguided and dangerous.
How dare they suggest that money would be better spent addressing domestic problems than on a proxy war half way across the world. That’s misguided and dangerous thinking.
I also love how the article takes it for granted that US must prop up puppet regimes in Asia as if that’s somehow in the interest of the people living in US.
If the US just bails on Taiwan, the CPC just pushes them out of power or they get elected out of office. Do even the die hard one china policy people want any harm to befall the Kumintang leaders?
I wouldn’t mind those cockroaches known as the Kuomintang being taken out (that’s an unfair insult to cockroaches), but I almost always prefer for conflicts to be solved peacefully at all possible.
I don’t know much about the DPP, admittedly, so I’ll try to not talk out of my ass. I read that they are even more resolute in their Taiwanese identity than the Kuomintang are, and they seem like stuckup blue MAGAs.
