It’s pretty common troll tactic to claim to want information on something that’s well documented. What specifically do you want a source regarding, how US poured millions into Taiwanese media via orgs like NED, or how US grooms DPP politicians, or how US based orgs help write school curriculum?
In the African high speed rail thread, I pointed out that the conjecture that the rail wouldn’t be cost effective was made up. Nothing in the article I submitted suggested that would be the case. So, if the person was claiming that, I was asking on what basis they were claiming it.
What I’m stating about US interference in Taiwan i on the other hand a well documented fact.
Once again, the only agitator and a troll here is the one who’s following me around and making personal attacks trying to smear me while adding nothing at all to the discussion. Do better.
You’re changing the topic. You demanded citations for an assertion. Felt it was fair to do so. You clearly continue to do so.
When others ask you, you tell them to Google it. Even just a little more effort would be helpful - a good site for reference, author, something…
In the other thread I see your links. Thank you. Substance is good. I’ll take a look and see what’s up.
That so many people “follow you around” is you misreading that you’re pissing off (potential) allies. They’re in those communities for a reason.
Be better. No one is “stalking me.” And it’s not because I hold a lot of popular opinions (some are, some aren’t). Why are you being “stalked” for real? It’s not the opinion - it is the presentation.
If you were confident and mature, you wouldn’t be glib and dismissive, you’d present clearly, with some empathy and rapport building, and you’d find some space for discussion.
Others are also bringing up your complete lack of maturity in the Taiwan thread. Glib is how you galvanize people into an opposing position. Stop being glib.
I’m not changing any topic here, I’m simply explaining why you’re making a false equivalence. Meanwhile, there aren’t many people following me around, there’s literally three of you.
And the reason I call you out on following me around isn’t because you disagree with my views, but because you make personal attacks and don’t actually make any arguments of your own. You keep doing this psychoanalysis of me, telling me that I’m not confident, calling me a troll and so on. Nowhere do you say anything of substance.
If you want people to take you seriously then maybe consider making a reasoned argument instead of personal attacks. Just a thought.

In the African high speed rail thread, you required citations of others who had opinions you didn’t like.
You’re doing it here, too. But you won’t put in the effort you expect of others.
And you decry hypocrisy.
You are becoming a known agitator and troll. That’s never good for a cause you care about. Good work.

This post, by your definition, has no content.
Do you see the hypocrisy?
So, what you’re saying is that I should just stop engaging with your trolling. That’s probably a good advice actually.
LOL. I’m not trolling, I’m just distracting one.
Adorable that’s what you think you’re doing, but anybody who looks at your comment history knows different.
