Why do people keep responding to this 網絡評論員, wǎnglù pínglùn yuán troll?
It’s obvious he is pushing a mainland Chinese agenda.
He has stated clearly that China belongs to mainland Chinese and that Taiwan is part of China and therefore also belongs to mainland Chinese.
He disrespects Han residents of Taiwan while calling them his ‘sons’.
He has no respect for the indigenous inhabitants of Taiwan, disregards facts of history, and shows an inability to found and defend a logical argument.
Among many of his fallacious arguments he suggests that: my son is not my son unless I can produce a legal document to prove it; if I sell my house, my descendants can take it back after I die.
This is typical of the brainwashed masses who were ‘re-educated’ in the prisons of the Cultural Revolution. They were subjected to an Orwellian nightmare of double-think:
[quote]To know and not to know, to be conscious of complete truthfulness while telling carefully constructed lies, to hold simultaneously two opinions which cancelled out, knowing them to be contradictory and believing in both of them, to use logic against logic, to repudiate morality while laying claim to it, to believe that democracy was impossible and that the Party was the guardian of democracy, to forget, whatever it was necessary to forget, then to draw it back into memory again at the moment when it was needed, and then promptly to forget it again, and above all, to apply the same process to the process itself – that was the ultimate subtlety; consciously to induce unconsciousness, and then, once again, to become unconscious of the act of hypnosis you had just performed. Even to understand the word ‘doublethink’ involved the use of doublethink. ”
“ The power of holding two contradictory beliefs in one’s mind simultaneously, and accepting both of them… To tell deliberate lies while genuinely believing in them, to forget any fact that has become inconvenient, and then, when it becomes necessary again, to draw it back from oblivion for just as long as it is needed, to deny the existence of objective reality and all the while to take account of the reality which one denies – all this is indispensably necessary. Even in using the word doublethink it is necessary to exercise doublethink. For by using the word one admits that one is tampering with reality; by a fresh act of doublethink one erases this knowledge; and so on indefinitely, with the lie always one leap ahead of the truth.[/quote]
Only such a regime as the PRC can produce the kind of thinking that the 網絡評論員 has displayed. For example, the 網絡評論員 suggests that if I sell my property, my descendants can take it back… for people who live in a free country like Taiwan, this may seem oxymoronic, but for a 網絡評論員 it makes sense because there is no real individual ownership of land in the PRC. You can only purchase usage rights: the land belongs to the state.
