Taiwan is a chill democracy. It's not surprising some random European country would prefer them over the PRC. What matters is the now.

- rurban 5y agoHold on. Taiwan became a democracy just a few years ago (1996). Before it was still one of the many fascist satellite states of the US, which helped the Kuomintang with their revolution in China, which they lost. "Chill" democracy is chill, like the "chill democracies" in Korea or HK, with a similar fate. Still better than the PRC of course. Random European countries always prefer stable fascist partners over democracies.
