The 2017 Taiwan Blackout: The DPP's 'Heartwarming' Restoration of Family Values?

This article uses a sharp satirical tone to comment on the massive Taiwan blackout of August 15, 2017. The author describes the 'heartwarming' scenes brought about by the power failure: families putting down their phones to dine together by candlelight, recreating family values lost in a utilitarian society. The piece concludes by sarcastically crediting the DPP government, suggesting their 'intentions' are far more profound than the public could imagine, thereby expressing deep dissatisfaction with the ruling party's energy policies.
