What should we make of Taiwan's move to erase the category "Han" from its official information page?

They like to remind us that the founder of the Kuomintang (whose flag still represents the ROC today), Dr. Sun Yat-Sen, kickstarted the Xinhai Revolution with the slogan “驅逐韃虜, 恢復中華” - “Expel the Tatar/Manchu Barbarians and Restore China”, using the suffering of the Han-majority populace under Qing rule as a revolutionary tool.

Forget using TikTok; even worshiping Lady Mazu - chief of the Fujianese pantheon - gets you labelled a “CCP infiltrator”. That’s seriously how hysterical they are about the so-called “Taiwanese national identity”.

Personally, I’m glad the Taiwanese authorities are going down this route, dropping all pretenses of “protecting Chinese civilisation from the (Mainland) Chinese”, and inching ever closer to openly embracing Japanese identity, which is their true agenda all along.

Hello,hope y'all doin good, i came to Quora to share my strange story , a very weird one , a story when luck smiled at me ,maybe u will enjoy it , let's begin,have fun... A year ago ,I was a real porn addicted(btw I was 18) ,but never had sex before, I don't have a gf I didn't try to find one even ,always thinking to go to find a sex worker but then I just don't , everyday watching different bodies getting fucked and everyday enjoying. One day, I was watching porn, a big ass lady with big boobs ,just after seeing her the image of my female cousin poped in my mind, (let's introduce her : she's 35 years old , very big ass , nice boobs ,not very big but nice,always wearing tight clothes , she's divorced ) and I thought of me fucking her ,I never had sexual desires for her but now I do days went by and when I met her I was so horny ,I couldn't stay with the family cz my penis was clearly erected , I realized this is my first time I get horny for one of my family ,it not illegal in my country.well to make a long story short( if u want details just text me I will tell u 😊),I decided to give her signs that I want to fuck her,finally I decided to have sex and with my cousin , I thought it is the best beggining for me, i started touching her when I came across her in a narrow place , make her feel my hard cock when we hug , I thought it will hard and I will be ashamed but no , I felt nothing and she said nothing , probably she thought it was by mistake,anyways, I decided then to talk with her about sex, waited for her to be alone in a room and talk with her, I confessed everything about me watching porn and addicted..etc,she said it's normal and u are growing up and u must have sex,well at that time I was like whaaat????? Well I didn't control myself and asked her for sex ( horny like I Ve never been before) she said that she will think Abt it ,2 weeka went by then she called me ,telling that she reserved a room in a hotel and we meet tonight ,we met,and bruuhh, sex is great , I mean, I had to find a pirstitue ,what I was waiting for to have such a feeling ????, I will never forget that night, I started kissing her she was kissing hard ,she misses sex so bad , she sucked my dick and swallowed my semen ,I felt I'm in a dream , then when fucked ,her ass was very big and the anus was open ,didn't struggle to get my hard cock inside it , she was obviously missing sex , she was shouting ,fuck me yh fuck me , I go fast after every word until I cum , we did that 3 times , then we went to her pussy , using condoms I fucked her so hard the moans were higher , everything was perfect ,in the end I asked her to lick her body , licked pussy ,ass, boobs,then she sucked my cock until we sleeped ,all I know that she was dirty ,well before even having sex with her I knew she is an open minded woman , and a woman that looks that she donesnt know anything , but she knows everything, but never expected having sex with her ,well she was horny and that helped...but no one of us regretted that sex ever.. We still have sex from time to time ,and I started having sex with sex workers , joining threesomes..etc If u want pics of her text me.

Such a surreal move by the DPP, when interpreted in conjunction with their other policies and rhetoric, tells an entirely different story than one of “indigenous empowerment” - one of politically and ideologically motivated de-Sinicisation. I’ve already written plenty about this before, from how Taiwan is purposefully watering down their Chinese language education and reducing teachings hours for Chinese history and classical Chinese literature; to how a cultural “witch hunt” against anything remotely of Mainland Chinese origins led to the banning of certain popular Chinese dishes, as well as Christopher Columbus discovering “a New China”.

Just to rub it in the faces of the Han Chauvinists, I support renaming the Taiwan region into the “Taiwan Gaoshanzu Autonomous Region” when total national reunification happens. And hopefully the Han Chauvinists will realise then that the PRC’s path of ethnic harmony and true national sovereignty is the best choice we have, not just for the ethnic minorities but for Han people as well. We win when all of us wins.

I don’t have time to bring you up to speed on the last 400 years of Taiwanese history, but basically imagine if Australia, Canada, New Zealand and the United States started to class their native peoples as the dominant/“mainstream” group of the nation, while categorising white people (i.e. the majority of the population) as “others”.

If you don’t know what I’m talking about, the Taiwanese government, under a controversial DPP-led administration that is currently being protested against island-wide, has recently removed the ethnic Han label on its official census, and have instead relegated the 96.2% majority of the island’s populace to “the rest”. They claim that such a move serves to promote the rights of Taiwan’s indigenous peoples (collectively known as “Gaoshanzu”, who make up around 2% of Taiwan’s population) and social harmony.

There may be a niche argument for “decolonisation” here somewhere, but it’s not very realistic or convincing in Taiwan’s case, that I can assure you. Parts of Taiwan have been settled by Han Chinese people as far back as the 12th Century; meanwhile the Gaoshanzu are formally recognised as one of China’s 56 native ethnicities, and have been migrating to the Mainland (such as Fujian Province) since the late Ming Dynasty. No amount of historical revisionism by the Taiwanese separatists can deny the fact that the island is an integral part of China, and inseparable from the mainland.

Funnily enough, other than the Kuomintang, the Han Chauvinists in Mainland China have also been greatly offended by the DPP’s de-Sinicisation. For those of you who don’t browse Chinese cyberspaces, they’re a vocal minority who like to cry about being “persecuted” by the Communist government (the same way white supremacists in America and Europe cry about the “Great Replacement” conspiracy). These obnoxious pricks like to harp on about Taiwan/the Republic of China being a model for “Han society”, partly due to the island being far more homogenous and Han-dominant than the Mainland, as well as keeping the Traditional Chinese script.

Well, it must be awkward for these people to see their “Great Han State” throwing Han identity under the bus like that.

Try as the separatists might, most people are simply never going to spontaneously start identifying as something else, like “South Pacific/Austronesian Aborigine” - or god forbid, Japanese. The Kuomintang opposition and their allies have (rightfully) lambasted the DPP authorities for trying to erase Han identity for a stupid, self-defeating political agenda.

The current narrative fluctuates between “the Republic of China is the real China” and “the Republic of China has nothing to do with China”, an impressive example of George Orwell’s “Doublethink”. But many Taiwanese people have decided to draw the line at Han ethnicity - because if they’re not Han, then what the hell are they? Their ancestors were Han, they look Han, they speak the Han language, they use Han script, their values and way of life are that of the Han, and many even worship Han deities.

They support removing extra exam scores for ethnic minority students, and other such “affirmative action” policies of the PRC. They also like to point to the fact that the ROC has a higher GDP per capita than the PRC, and assert that the PRC should pursue Han Chauvinism instead of socialism - in some cases, they call for the overthrowing of the CPC in favour of some kind of neo-feudal/imperial rule - in order to “make China great again”.
