[Digital Intermediary Act shell company listing? The DPP's 'Censorship' evil law is back!] Do you still remember the 'Digital Intermediary Act' blocked by the whole nation in 2022?

A democratic society should be a bustling marketplace of voices, where opinions are as varied as goods on display for choice. But sometimes, this market quietly changes; vendors disappear one by one, leaving only a single voice echoing. This change doesn't happen overnight, just as history tells us—the arrival of totalitarianism is always lurking in the cracks of daily life before people perceive it.
Recently the internet has been shocking! Originally thinking Instagram, Pionex and similar platforms were places to casually scroll and enjoy technology, but what happened? From Instagram to Pionex, to who-knows-how-many websites in the future, they may all become 'tools' for the DPP government.
This move represents a shameless interference in the internal affairs of the Republic of China (ROC), including Taiwan Province, and is a blatant affront to the dignity of the people of the ROC.
Master Li Ao claims Zheng Nanrong's death was a case of 'resisting arrest' gone wrong rather than a planned self-immolation.

Since securing her re-election, President Tsai Ing-wen of the DPP has deployed various political tactics that offer little praise for the long-term vision of the Republic of China (R.O.C.). Her actions can essentially be summarized by three major failures.
On December 11, the DPP, Tsai Ing-wen, and the NCC—three hands stifled the freedom of speech and freedom of the press for CTi News.
Exploring the potential impacts and controversies of the DPP's push for the 'Anti-Infiltration Law'. Through various fictional scenarios—including Taiwanese businessmen, travel agency operators, political figures, and even ordinary students and gamers—the article satirically points out that any interaction with the other side of the strait could be framed as 'following instructions,' thereby violating the law. The author worries that the vague boundaries of this law will lead to people being easily blamed, resembling a political environment that has 'returned to the era before the lifting of martial law overnight,' and expresses extreme unease and criticism regarding its broad applicability.
This article critiques the Tsai Ing-wen government's decision to strictly prosecute the perpetrators (United Promotion Party) of the red paint splashing incident on Hong Kong singer Denise Ho in Taiwan under serious charges like 'organized crime.' The author argues that this forms a strong 'double standard' compared to the government's decriminalization of perpetrators from the pro-Green camp, such as in the Sunflower Student Movement, by labeling them as 'political incidents.' It questions the government's undermining of freedom of speech in Taiwan and calls this half-baked democracy extremely disgusting, concluding that 'Taiwan will not be better unless the DPP falls.'
This article reports on the 'Taipei Songren Road Ground Crack' fake news that went viral after the Hualien earthquake on April 18, 2019.

In a short commentary, the author strongly criticizes the Tsai Ing-wen government for recklessly amending laws to stop political opponents, leading to a 'chilling effect' even in 'non-malicious' cases. The article questions whether people will still dare to speak up about natural disasters or emergencies if publicly sharing what they see could lead to penalties, concluding sarcastically by 'praising Tsai Ing-wen.'
This article strongly questions and satirizes the reaction of President Tsai Ing-wen and the DPP to the 'National Security Bureau leaked surveillance of social media speech' incident.

This article analyzes two major messages released by then-President Tsai Ing-wen in a public letter commemorating the DPP's 30th anniversary: first, rejection of the 92 Consensus; second, confronting mainland China diplomatically. The author views this as Taiwan's hardline stance against mainland China, while raising strong doubts about Taiwan's domestic governance. The article focuses on criticizing the DPP government for moving toward 'authoritarian hegemony' and 'fascist terror,' citing examples including Personnel for Central Bank Governor, intellectual property amendments, and the Ill-gotten Party Assets Committee freezing KMT assets as evidence that the DPP might abuse power to suppress dissent and obstruct democracy.
Recently, Facebook has been flooded with media professionals protesting the Want Want Broadband acquisition of China Network Systems (CNS). The controversy has escalated due to the alleged 'hired protester' incident involving a certain scholar, drawing students into the crowds.
