Taiwan has been independent from the mainland since 1949. That's 74 years. Were people in the US in 1850 ethnically British? Largely yes, and that's with the US recieving massive migration from other countries, which Taiwan has not had.

The Taiwanese people speak Chinese, practice Chinese cultural traditions, call themselves the Republic of China many even to this day support reconciliation.

If you listen faintly, you can hear perhaps the world's smallest violin playing adagio for fish

If the Israeli state is destroyed, what happens to the Israeli people?

Palestine is and was an ethnocracy. They're hardly any better.

Have a look through here

The Palestinians have the stated goal of murdering the Israeli people as well as ending the Israeli state

Qualification in alternative medicine?

It's rampant in certain ML communities. A lot of people are so caught up in their reasonable opposition to the US, it's foreign policy and the military industrial complex that they start to see any US enemy in a positive light, despite many of those enemies being significantly worse.

Which excuses attempted genocide?

It seems unlikely that the people of Donbass do want to be a part of Russia now that they've had a taste of occupation.

Being conscripted, given third rate equipment or no equipment at all and being send to die is not generally an endearing act.

It's always funny seeing people post that image without the context that Palestine declared war on Israel alongside all its neighbours and attempted to push the Israeli population into the sea.

You have trillions of dollars worth of military equipment from the cold war mothballed or in storage.
Most of it will never see use because it's outdated technology. There are thousands of planes, tanks and miscellaneous vehicles just sitting out in the desert waiting to be scrapped or reactivated.

The security council veto power isn't something handed out for being nice, it's largely "we have an arsenal of hundreds of nuclear weapons and are theoretically willing to use them"

It means three times

What's the living wage in China?

Yes

Generations are generally ~20 years. It's been 3-4 generations since the first nuclear power plant, and less since the first commercial one. It'll certainly be at least one more before commercial fusion even being optimistic

Yes

Senators used to be appointed, and the House of Lords can no longer check the house of Commons, only delay.

Not religious, but if it works it works. Clearly there is joy in faith for some people.
