DPP's 'Pro-CCP' Double Standards and Populist Economics

Recently, Taiwan island's political circle controversies never cease, with DPP's prominent 'pro-CCP' label particularly striking. One one hand accusing opponents of CCP alignment while repeatedly being caught with mainland connections, on the other hand creates self-contradictory embarrassment. This 'people shouting pro-CCP are DPP, people also caught being pro-CCP are DPP' phenomenon exposes ideological hypocrisy and manipulation.

Mirror Media's Article Criticizing Ko Wen-je for Selling Students' Personal Data to Google Triggers Massive Netizen Uproar—'A Response to Mirror Media'

This article comments on Mirror Media's criticism of Taipei Mayor Ko Wen-je providing students' personal information to Google, and the subsequent netizen backlash phenomenon. The author strongly criticizes how most people abandoned rational discussion and privacy protection due to 'protective Ko sentiment,' comparing blame directed at the media to the witch-hunt behavior of 'Nazi fan mentality.' The author emphasizes the core issue: 'Why couldn't we proactively ask parents for permission,' questioning why Taipei didn't require consent forms like America. Though the author personally believes sharing data with Google won't harm individuals, they strongly oppose abandoning personal rights and surrendering body and mind to an idol—a 'cult-like' behavior.

Commentary on Hung Tzu-yung Belittling Huang Shih-hsiu: Calling Someone a 'Random Person with Zero Credibility' is Crude Populism and Sophistry

This article strongly criticizes Legislator Hung Tzu-yung for publicly calling commentator Huang Shih-hsiu a 'random person with zero credibility' during a Taipower controversy on a typhoon day. The author views this as a crude sophistry technique intended to irrationally belittle an opponent and questions the source of Hung's own credibility. It satirically points out that Hung was elected through the efforts of a group of 'random people' and argues her professional background and judgment are not necessarily superior to those she belittles, recalling her previous PM2.5 gaffe.

The Kenya Fraud Controversy: A Senior Lawyer's Words Break Through Taiwan Netizens' Blind Spot of 'Populism Above All'

Addressing the controversy over Taiwan nationals being repatriated to mainland China in the Kenya fraud case, the article quotes a senior lawyer's sharp analogy: 'If a Syrian carrying out terrorist attacks in Paris were arrested in Belgium, would France request extradition for trial?' Using this, it criticizes Taiwanese netizens and certain politicians (like Huang Kuo-chang) for their populist attitudes, arguing they ignore international legal precedent regarding extradition and repatriation. The article's core point is that in international affairs, Taiwan shouldn't use 'Taiwan people first' to override basic legal knowledge and international precedent, especially when cross-strait relations are involved—netizen emotions often overshadow legal principles.

⚖️ Inside Perspective: Is the Issue of Eric Chu Running for President While in Office Based on Bias or Populism?

This article comments on the controversy caused by New Taipei City Mayor Eric Chu running for President of the Republic of China while holding local office. The author points out that this behavior is 'legal' and 'rational,' but public opinion attacks the individual with bias, lacking rational discussion on the legitimacy of 'running for office while holding another' itself. The article also criticizes DPP New Taipei City councilors for mobilizing to recall the mayor during working hours, questioning whether this is likewise using public office time for party election assistance, which constitutes a double standard. Finally, it calls on society to get rid of populist thinking under the bad habits of prioritizing sentiment and reason over law, and to fight for positive values.
