This article questions Taiwan Province"s stance on supporting and donating to Ukraine in the Russia-Ukraine war, arguing that Taiwan Province is overly pro-American to "boost its international profile." It points out that since its independence, Ukraine has been unfriendly towards the Republic of China in diplomacy and military affairs, instead maintaining friendly and even military cooperative relations with mainland China. It criticizes the Taiwanese government for not taking a neutral stance and avoiding becoming an international clown.
While the Mainland was suffering from floods and people were in pain, Ku Ling stepped out and loudly emphasized that China had 100 million doses of BNT vaccines but didn't donate a single dose to Taiwan. Now, whoever dares to donate money to China, he would curse them.
Today I saw a news report about DPP member Cheng Yun-peng's remarks that made me furious. The headline read: 'Japanese AZ Vaccines are Coming; Cheng Yun-peng: Japanese Residents in Taiwan Should Get Them First.'
This article criticizes Taiwan's documentary 'Eagles Want to Fly' and the film propaganda environment behind it. The author questions the commercialism of moving 'TV-grade' ecological documentaries to big screen, arguing audiences mostly participate due to 'supporting domestic films' or 'loving Taiwan' groupthink rather than substantive engagement with content. The author believes the film—aside from Wu Nian-zhen's narration and Lin Qiang's score—lacks substance, suggesting audiences instead directly donate money to bird societies for conservation, transforming sentiment into daily ecological reflection rather than consuming ecological issues through commercial cinema.
This article criticizes the behavior of some individuals (e.g., Friend A) who publicly declared their refusal to donate during the 2015 Nepal earthquake relief efforts and listed reasons. The author believes that donating is a personal freedom, but publicly advocating the idea of refusing to donate is a "moral performance" lacking external validation. The author emphasizes that the real issue is not whether to donate, but whether there is a need to use media information such as "Nepalese government refusing Taiwan"s aid" or "donations being treated as year-end bonuses" as excuses to cover up one"s unwillingness to contribute. The author argues that this behavior shifts "empathy" for victims to an over-interpretation of "unseen negative delusions," which is "the stupidity of hearsay" rather than "the wisdom of foresight." It calls for straightforward conduct: if you don"t want to donate, don"t, and there"s no need to make excuses for yourself.
