A healthy vibrant democracy.
EDIT: Lmao the bill introduces criminal penalties for officials caught lying in parliament.
You do not, under any circumstances, 'gotta hand it to em' (because he will run away with it)
What's the context? What was the bill about? What are this guy's politics like?
he's running
According to another in this thread:
the bill introduces criminal penalties for officials caught lying in parliament.
I think the current DPP goverment lacks a majority in congress. The KMT + their allies are trying to limit the Executive branch powers and the DPP are angry because now they won't be able to do shit to sabotage a future unification with China.
Wait, KMT are the least shit party in all this?
Yeah they're more amicable towards normalizing relations with the PRC and future reunification. It's strange but these days the DPP are Washington's main puppets.
[squints] is this direct action?
🤔 well, he did get the goods
every time i try to read traditional chinese i feel grateful for the CPC i'm not gonna lie to you lol
that could also just be me tho. idk
What do you mean you prefer 丰 to 豐
I like traditional for the aesthetic, like if you're gonna make old school signage or calligraphy, it just looks better. But for everyday reading and writing it's just so much more tedious. Simplifying the characters was the right decision when it comes to education and accessibility.
See this is EXACTLY why we need blockchain. Never would have happened.
Imagine Kamala Harris dashing out of the Senate with a USB key containing all 1,776 of the US Congressional $VOTE tokens.

Honestly I don't understand why politicians don't do this shit more often. Just delaying say, bombs for Israel or cutting medicaid for a day can save dozens of lives, and show your constituency you understand what these bills mean for real human beings.
But no, every time it's for the worst possible, like promoting corruption or disenfranchizing serbs or something.
That's because it's fun and whimsical when the worst people do it, so they are allowed to get away with shenanigans.
If someone did this to delay bombs for Israel they'd be stopped by force.
Can't give the poors an inch.
Critical support to the DPP against Taiwan's bourgeois democracy.
And you all laughed when the US said the Parliamentarian was stopping them from passing anything.
"Wait, can we do that? Is that allowed?"
based?
Dudes rock
I love this.
