Just curious. You said you were an Asian-American, I'm living in Asia right now, seemed like a natural point of conversation. You ever been back to visit Taiwan? And also... what's your opinion on Taiwan? Sovereign nation or renegade province? Where in Asia are you living bro? I just got back from Taiwan about a month ago. First time back in 6 years. Changed a lot, probably because I've changed as well, but it was a good time overall. In terms of the political sides, that can be a sensitive question for the Taiwanese. lol. Though, to me, it's not that major. From my experience, culturally, Chinese and Taiwanese are virtually the same, though China is so big that the regions can be considered different countries in themselves. Political boundaries are social constructions to begin with. But if I had to choose, I'd say sovereign nation. I understand why they broke off from Communist China at the time, plus, Mao was one crazy muthafucka. But to be completely honest, I don't know THAT much about it, hell, you probably know more than I do. lol. I love how this thread has gone from Klitschko, to race in America, to healthcare, and now to Taiwan/China relations. |

Fitz that made me laugh for 5 minutes straight. People had to come and ask what I was laughing at. I think it was the p4p stutterer that did it. |

Great thread, although this may need to be moved to the non-boxing section now lol! I've enjoyed reading this very sensitive 'global' issue! What is even better is people have managed to discuss this in great depth without being insulting to one another! Great points made by many as I would love to respond, agree, agree to disagree with many posters responses here...but where the fuck do you begin on such a big complexed topic!
Thanks for the great read & pics guys! |
