Taiwan's response was pretty weak charging China wants to be like the Taliban just because China taunting how Taiwan is going to end up the same way. That's like dumb simple Republican logic where they think they're the good guys and if you don't do what they tell you, it's because you're aligned with the Devil. If Taiwan were to fall, the politicians are going to be stuffing their pockets full of cash and fleeing. They did the same thing after they lost China to the communists and fled to Taiwan. The US "trained" their military. The US trained the Afghan military. I bet like a lot of Asian countries think the US is going to do all the heavy lifting for them so they don't really think about it until it's too late. That's why Asian countries don't feel consequences. They think the US will be paying for it not them. Taiwan does have a lot of parallels to the Afghan government where they can only point to China taunting that the Taiwanese government is going to fold like the Afghan government to charge China wants to be like the Taliban. Of course the Financial Times is going to go along because they also want to deflect how much of an embarrassment Afghanistan is for the West. And they're not going to learn and will keep doing the same things over and over again based on the flawed logic they keep holding onto is that everyone in the world wants to be like them. So they think they just have to get rid of the government and rest will be easy. You don't think they think the same way with China? If they can get rid of the communists, the Chinese people will be able to freely worship the West as gods because that's nature. Instead they keep experiencing failure after failure after failure because they don't want to learn because it means what they believe in is not true.
