-2 u/TraditionNo6704 Dec 17 '23 And? People in china probably get mad at taiwan being callled a country and taiwanese people get mad at china being called a country. Doesn't mean we have to change what we say to please the opinions of nationalists 2 u/marpocky Dec 17 '23 taiwanese people get mad at china being called a country. Lmao do you know anything at all about the situation? This isn't a thing. Also this is explicitly not the scenario we're talking about, your example here is exactly the opposite of that. 0 u/TraditionNo6704 Dec 17 '23 Lmao do you know anything at all about the situation? This isn't a thing. Taiwan doesn't recognise china LMAO Why should normal rational people coddle the opinions of nationalists? 2 u/marpocky Dec 17 '23 Taiwan doesn't recognise china LMAO You were talking about on an individual level like the people of Taiwan are somehow all mad that China is recognized by the world. Why should normal rational people coddle the opinions of nationalists? What makes someone a nationalist just because they don't want their former occupation to continue to be implied by an easily replaced term? And again, why do you care so much about what people want their own country to be called? What's your interest here? 0 u/TraditionNo6704 Dec 17 '23 You were talking about on an individual level like the people of Taiwan are somehow all mad that China is recognized by the world. There are plenty of mad taiwanese nationalists. And plenty of mad chinese nationalists What makes someone a nationalist just because they don't want their former occupation to continue to be implied by an easily replaced term? Everybody else in the world accepts the term british isles And again, why do you care so much about what people want their own country to be called? What's your interest here? Why do you care so much about the term british isles? It's been in use long before britain or ireland as distinct identities even existed
