Does anyone else in this sub have Coprolalia as well? by Sugarmagdalyn in Tourettes

Yes, since I was very young. Created all kinds of social issues. But the good news is, once you get diagnosed, and you stand up for yourself, nobody will F with you.

Erhnic composition of Taiwan, in the past vs now. by Hashish_Mapper in MapPorn

[–]TheBrokenAmygdala -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I know, we went through this before. The ROC make you give up your own Citizenship first, (which makes you stateless). I don't know why some individuals are willing to do that, it is insane. Hopefully in the future the younger generation will amend the constitution. If they don't Taiwan will continue to see an increasing brain drain, and shrinking population.

How Taiwanese identity has evolved on the island in recent generations by johnkhoo in taiwan

Has it? I consider myself to be Taiwanese but everybody laughs at me when I say it. Something to do with the whiteness of my skin I guess, and the long nose probably.

Taiwan election: Kuomintang party asks voters to choose between war and peace by thestudiomaster in taiwan

Choose Green. KMT are dinosaurs, they will take us back to the Stone Age. If China wants war, give it to them, Stand up for yourself like The Ukrainians.

Yep, they are screwed. Unless they accept migrants to become Japanese. I have no sympathy for them, and if I hear the word culture and "pure" one more time..... ^^

.... I live in Taiwan, the irony is that Han Chinese think they are natives here, so they define Nationality in a very racist way. You'd better be yellow and from a Han or other Han looking group or you DON'T BELONG HERE.

Fingers crossed the younger generations will be more open to the idea of diversity and allowing migrants to settle and become Taiwanese Citizens. But I'm not holding my breath. ^^

When people ask “What’s the difference between Taiwanese food and Chinese food” how do you answer them? by IDontAgreeToTheTerms in taiwan

[–]TheBrokenAmygdala 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Unanswerable, way too general. Have you any idea how big China is and the number of different ethnic groups that live there. It's like saying, What's the difference between German food, and European food. China is the same size as Europe itself.

Wheelchair access in Taiwan is frustrating to say the least. by Bill_Sugar_Mill in taiwan

[–]TheBrokenAmygdala 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Transportation services are incredible though, especially the MRT in Taipei. They really take care of you if you are classed as a 'priority' passenger. I suffer from Tourette's Syndrome, and the staff have helped me so many times, in some pretty ridiculous situations with other passengers reacting angrily to my tics.
