      I’d call it internationalism instead of globalism. Globalism has connotations with capitalism and colonialism and not a term I’d want to associate with communism at this point.

        I’ll use either or. I’ll also use communism as a positive term even though it’s been tainted by reactionaries

        Just yesterday you commented the vomit emoji when someone posted the Taiwanese flag because you think they should be under the control of China rather than governing themselves. Sure sounds like you’re pro colonialism to me.

            I understand it quite well which is why I can identify when people like you are promoting it. If you had a rebuttal or explanation you would have stated it rather than resorting to a logical fallacy in your reply.

              You keep saying that you do, but clearly you don’t. Alternatively, you don’t understand the history of the province, and the civil war in China. In either case, what you’re saying is deeply ignorant.

                Another comment with zero substance.

                You claiming that forcibly taking over control of another’s land isn’t “colonialism” is like saying “enhanced interrogation” isn’t torture.

                Funny how you can keep replying about what others “don’t understand,” but you can’t put together an actual defense of your position. It’s almost as if you know I’m 100% accurate, so you’d rather spin the discussion away from your indefensible position with insults and fallacies.

                  Taiwan is literally part of China as recognized by UN. The actual colonialism happening in Taiwan is what US has been doing there since WW2. I can’t decide whether you’re just woefully ignorant or just a liar.

                    So the US is still colonizing Taiwan? How did they even “colonize” Taiwan?

                    Is this the same UN that recognized Palestinian territory as Israeli?
