wHaTaBoUt the USA?!
Your post sounds like AI slob. Taiwan Ukraines puppet? I just stopped there...
Congratulations on your patience. I never got to that part
The example of Ukraine is discouraging to any "Taiwan militarist extremism". What instigates an invasion or blockade of Taiwan by China is Taiwan declaring its acceptance of NATO membership, and US missile bases, or 51st state./US territory.
Both the Taiwanese population and current parliamentary majority are against the path of national suicide that Ukraine has taken. US promise to bomb TSMC themselves, and the failure to defeat Russia, in order to focus on creating war in Taiwan is not going to have short term success in convincing Taiwanese to follow Ukraine's stupidity. Ukraine was "blessed" with extremely hateful nationalists with ww2 and prior grudges against Russia, and an opponent that seemed to be weakening. Fortunately, Trump threatening to force Taiwan to pay for US protection instead of fomenting nazi-like extremism, with cash/weapons support of such groups, cannot possibly be successful in instigating war.

It's biggoted to say the Taiwanese are insufficiently biggoted to be motivated to suicide?
I'm stating facts: https://focustaiwan.tw/cross-strait/202402230019
Seems hateful and biggoted to suggest Ukraine provides a great role model to change their minds. The empire subjugation level is so intense on Lemmy, it's hard to comprehend. My post had plenty of content other than the obviousness that war is bad and not favoured in Taiwan, but mention that Ukraine is neither angelic, nor successfully supported by west, and all marbles are lost in apoplectic heresy, because your identity is wrapped into "prosperity depends on war on Russia and China", as if you shouldn't be prevented from voting.

Current Parliamentary majority is more anti-war than President. President is in favour of free US stuff, but is not escalatory or hateful. The tolerance for colonial oversight over TSMC/Taiwan economy. That lasts until the US doesn't buy as much stuff. The more recent US BS has moved polling to 71% favoring indifinitish status quo. 3.8% favoring independence is at historic low. ROC is Taiwan's name for Taiwan, also FYI.

It is beyond belief how lemmy military empire bots could think that war with China will be good for Americans or their soldiers, and that they need to protect a narrative that Taiwanese would overjoice with the results. May I suggest that you confer with colleagues on overthrowing US government giving you these orders instead.
