China’s “reunification” slogan is a hoax sustained by fear, ideology and deception.
Taiwan is not a rebellious province but a living refutation of communist determinism, a society that chose freedom over fear.
Not a single inch of Taiwan’s territory has ever been governed by the Chinese Communist Party. Since the founding of the People’s Republic of China in 1949, Taiwan has remained entirely outside its control politically, legally and militarily.
The claim of “reunification” is therefore a deliberate falsehood: One cannot “reunify” with what was never unified.
Author summary: China's reunification slogan is a hoax.
