What is pathetic is that the nationalist party was a loser to Japan invaders in WWII. They are still a loser today to the Japanese proxy in Taiwan. No wonder they lost China.
Well, you might be right, but then again, they lost the Chinese civil war(funny enough due to Japan invading China and weakening KMT forces fighting Imperial Japan) to the communists, and fled to Taiwan. If they were still ruling China, then i don't think they will be adopting such a policy today.
You can't compare the implications of the KMT ruling a large/big country like Greater China(with Taiwan included) with KMT ruling only a small country like Taiwan. Also you have to consider the conditions KMT Taiwan faced over these past decades/half a century, since being a small country facing a huge China made them seek protection/help from other big powers to protect their sovereignty(or retake the mainland). It's normal IMO. Any party would have done the same in their situation(including the CCP).
