We are told that #Taiwan is an international flash point and the #USA is honor-bound to defend Tawian against reunification with the mainland because, and I quote: “Taiwan’s 23 million people deserve self-determination”.
- Why didn’t the 9,103,332 people of the Confederate States of America deserve self-determination?
- Why don’t the 4,543,126 people of Palestine deserve self-determination?
- Why didn’t the 10.3 million people of the separatist oblasts of Ukraine deserve self-determination?
- Why don’t the 8,012,231 people of Catalunya deserve self-determination?
#
Self-determination is just another #
Enlightenment #
inversion. It means that #
ClownWorld will claim it is a
casus belli whenever it wants a #
war, and use military force to deny whenever it fears losing control. Unless the USA is going to go to war with #
Israel, #
Ukraine, and #
Spain, and permit the former-Confederate states to depart the #
Union in #
peace, it has absolutely no business claiming any right or responsibility to “defend” one part of #
China from the rest of it.
