You made a valid point. While both maintain that Taiwan is part of China, I suppose that doesn’t inherently preclude them both being independent countries. You’ve convinced me that that’s not a valid line of argument, so I’ve dropped it. You have scored a goal in the goalposts. That doesn’t mean that my position is going to shift completely, because there are other valid reasons for maintaining it.
I still don’t see what any of this has to do with the racist meme.
I swear, I try to concede a point, I get accused of being a bot. What, should just dig in and refuse to concede anything, even if I’m wrong, because doing so makes me sound like a bot? Y’all make it impossible to act in good faith.
Is it so unbelievable that I could be convinced that a particular line of argument I was using was wrong? I had never thought to apply the logic I was using to the specific case of Israel/Palestine, and when I tried to think of a rebuttal, I couldn’t. That’s that. Humans make mistakes, Jesus.
It’s kind of shocking that it has so many upvotes. I guess I’m saving this one and adding it to my pile of, “Reasons why I don’t give a shit what the majority of people on here think.”

Very obvious AI response.
I’ve never used AI in a post. Not here, not ever.

Also, fwiw:
They can’t answer you because 1) it is racist and they have no rebuttal, or 2) it is racist and they like it so they won’t care to give a rebuttal.
Gotta love libs man
