A deep dive into the Taiwan Strait, one of the major frontlines of the battle between western hegemony and eastern counter-hegemony, between dying unipolarity and rising multipolarity, discussing all matters related to cross-strait affairs between Taiwan and the Chinese mainland, past and present, and connecting them with global politics.
In an embarrassing turn of events, Taiwan's ruling party, the Democratic Progressive Party (DPP), publicly expressed support on social media for Yoon Seok-yeol's declaration of martial law in south Korea before quickly deleting the post amid public backlash. Once at the forefront of the fight to end the Kuomintang's martial law and establish liberal democracy in Taiwan, the DPP is now facing intense criticism for seemingly adopting the very actions it once condemned. As tensions escalate in Taiwan amid strained Sino-American relations, this episode scrutinizes the rhetoric surrounding Taiwan's supposed role as a beacon of democratic values in East Asia. Join us as we explore the contradictions, PR disasters, and the disturbing rise of anti-democratic rhetoric within the DPP's agenda.
