      No, it’s not about “China” not accepting Taiwan as a country, because “China” does not typically engage in text messages, seeing as it’s not a person.

      It’s about a stereotypical Chinese person acting and speaking in a way that the person who created the fake texts decided to make them. Which is, first trying to scam people, then being so triggered by the mention of Taiwan that they break character, then misspelling a word in a stereotypical way.

      Taiwan is just how you justify the rest of it to yourself.

            You dont understand jokes in general. The joke isnt about one fictional non descript chinese person. Its about china’s and the chinese peoples denial of taiwans statehood.

                And its not a stereotype that chinese people dont accept taiwans statehood, it is their official position.

                The text didnt even call them chinese, which would be typical of a racist joke. It just says “youre from china.”

                  I didn’t realize that Chinese people had an official position on anything. Does that include Chinese people living in Taiwan? Weird.

                  Also, the stereotype I object to is not “not accepting Taiwanese statehood” but “being so triggered at the mere mention of Taiwan that the drop everything else to say ‘fuk you.’”
