Fascinating to see prominent anti PRC TWers (like Angela) flip in the last few years. LBH, DPP blocking peaceful reunification routes, trying to insinuate it's treasonous to cooperate with CCP will only lead to forceful reunification. Any pathway to "peaceful" reunification will require political cooperation with CCP, which notionally some % on island is fine with. DDP shit fuckery (and US info warfare) wants to turn that kind of cooperation into treason, because neither wants "peaceful" reunification to happen. Cue effort to build the TW identity, and IMO we're now seeing the limits of engineering that on identity separatist/independence. If QoL on TW continues to stagnate, more and more TWers will find some form of integration with mainland acceptable, especially as they grow up... see HK kids now partying up in greater delta area post crackdown. DPP demo mostly under 20-30s think with their heart not with their brain types. Each election cycle, getting more disillusioned/fatigued by the shitfest that is TW democratic system that took barely 30 years to start cracking apart. They're now at the part of process of dealing with contradictions of purging political opponents becuz muh security. Current DPP primary voting demographic also the last sizable cohort wave from 80s-90s before TW's terminally collapsed TFR makes newer gen #s too small to challenge 40+ voting block in a few election cycles, i.e. most voters will start thinking with their wallets, think like KMT. Incidentally probably last political configuration for peaceful reunification from both sides of the strait - politburo still likely stacked with patient geezers. Next gen of CCP leadership who only know peace can't wait to throw seperatists DPP into the torment nexus after occupation, and it's not like MSS hasn't got their hands on entire TW voter registry by now.
