Summary

A Canadian warship passed through the Taiwan Strait on Sunday, prompting China to condemn the move as provocative and destabilizing.

Chinese military forces have been deployed to counter the perceived threat.

The passage follows recent crossings by two US vessels, with Taiwan’s defense ministry asserting that the strait remains international waters and a symbol of regional openness.

            Man, did you somehow manage to skip the “Western Culture” class during your re-education? Not a single part of that statement makes any sense.

              I’m really intrigued by this, re-education from what? What education do you think I had that I then got re-educated from and why would “western culture” be a part of it?

              Edit: Also how did I get into this re-education? Was I forced or did I voluntarily sign up? Please paint me a picture here I’m fascinated by this

                Are there any female authoritarian leaders? I can’t think of any current ones, so it may be simply descriptive instead of sexist/homophobic.

                  The fact that you use “to gargle balls” as an insult, suggesting it is a demeaning act is homophobic and sexist
