China is part of Taiwan.

Or more precisely, PRC is rebelled provinces of China.

Hello from Taiwan, while your heart's in the right place this meme actually plays into China's hands as it fits their one-china narrative. Taiwan considers itself an independent nation and hopes the wider international community will begin treating it as such.

Last time I heard you still officially maintain your claims to mainland China, Mongolia and part of Russia and India.

Also, I wouldnt say his heart is in the right place. PRC is the direct result of the faliure of the KMT junta and its widespread terror.

Either "China" only ever hurt mainland. Taiwan is a democracy that circumstantially became viable and manageable (even then, it took decades) on an island with the population of 20 million people.

I agree with your sentiment that Taiwan is probably better off by itself. Nobody actually knows how to manage mainland properly.
