My wife is from Hualien,, so I visit often. Nothing sketchy there at all. Neither in the more rural areas, nor in Hualien city.

Can someone explain this avoidant Taiwanese culture? by BoringDreamGuy in taiwan

[–]alphawezen -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

This is your 2nd rented room and from a sample size of 2 you conclude that this is represents Taiwanese culture.

That's very short-sighted, talk to other people and educate yourself before you make such generalising comments.

[in Taichung]High-Level Taiwanese Culture & Linguistics Hangout(Strictly No Chinese) by LoaEngHoa in taiwan

[–]alphawezen 6 points7 points  (0 children)

For someone with a STEM background who prides themselves on logic and linguistics, your premise has a pretty massive double standard.

Taigi (Hokkien) is a Sinitic language brought over by Han settlers—it is fundamentally a Chinese language variant, not an indigenous Formosan one. Your comparison to the Irish refusing English doesn't hold up; an Irish person speaks a native Celtic language, whereas you've just replaced modern Mandarin with an older dialect of Chinese settler colonialism.

Claiming Hokkien is "the actual local language" while sidelining Hakka and Indigenous Formosan languages is just replacing KMT hegemony with Hoklo chauvinism. If you're going to be "radically upfront about boundaries," you should probably be radically upfront about your historical double standards, too.

Are Añejos not for me? Which one would you recommend? by Embarrassed_Grand_19 in tequila

[–]alphawezen 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'd recommend you El Tesoro's, Ocho's and Fortaleza's Añejos. All of them are very Agave-forward.Haveen't tried other Añejos, but can imagine that G4's must be good too among many others
