    There was some conservative user a while ago on lemmy that thought I was a “Chinese Bot”/“Scammer”

    Clearly they were an idiot too because if they knew anything about China, they should have seen the Taiwanese flag and known were you not from or supportive of the PRC. Seriously, people need to pick up a history book now and then. There’s a good chunk of American history mixed in there too with how Taiwan came to be (or stay being a nation).

        是吗? I wouldn’t have guessed that. I didn’t think ROC flag was tolerated well 在 大陆. I still have a lot to learn about the culture.

        • In mainland China, probably not tolerated outside of like the context of museums. Idk about the laws, but at the minimum, cops will probably visit you and “have a chat”

          I’m Chinese-Amercian, I was born in Guangzhou, but I’m no longer PRC National anymore so I don’t give a shit what mainland nationalists think.

          I think ROC flag is fine overseas…

          I mean look at this lol

            Gotcha, that’s closer to what I had thought.

            Oh certainly! It was not rare when I visited Flushing.
