As your constituent, I thank you. But there need to be real consequences for this - at bare minimum, Noam and Hegseth both need to be GONE.

This this this.
If there is a time for Dems in Congress to do something meaningful in the chambers, it is fucking NOW.

For trying to ask a question at a press event IN HIS OWN STATE.

Unfortunately, many of the best leaders were already removed from their positions or even cut out of the military exactly because they put the Constitution ahead of loyalty to Trump.
Without good, qualified leaders and their decades of experience, I worry about the culture going forward...

I'm so tired man. This is just way too much stupid for my brain to deal with on a daily basis, and it just keeps coming. 😔

Love it, but the locations are too far away to frequent!

Absolutely. I'm crashing too.

Yes. I understand that... And I understand that I don't really have a 'dog' in this fight as a white guy... But I still very much hope for a strong and independent Taiwan, and I'll show my support any way I can

I hate Bezos and Amazon, but done and done. Ordered.

Hey, you don't need to convince me that it's a perfect country, I already know 🤣
I'm just trying to figure out how to best advocate for it...

Well that's a huge mistake. Obviously.

Honestly, I think because I live near Harvard, I should get the least subtle options possible 😅

Even more messed up. Who cares if it's Europeans or Thai? It's not ok. In my opinion (which very few people care about), Taiwan should be backed across the board.

Out of stock across the board ðŸ˜

Oh yes, I'm well aware of when Thailand broke and sent Taiwanese nationals to China. Messed up.

Yup, that's my speed. Where do I get them??

Yah, I was gonna DM you about it, but I couldn't see an option for it because I frankly suck at social media 😅
Always looking to learn more.

Ok, so I didn't see this anywhere in Taiwan 2 years ago! I bought the hat offered to me, I guess... As the stupid white dude ðŸ˜

I feel like we have two different conversation streams going now 😅
Ok... So, the sun is associated with KMT but not DPP?
I genuinely want to be educated here... But for sure, I get dirty looks with the 'sun' hat 😬

Is there a hat or T shirt for that? 🤣 I'll wear it if so!
comment in response to
post
Oh I'm well aware! I'm not going to pretend to be an expert, so please take everything I say with a grain of salt, but I've tried to be very informed on this... And I'm with Taiwan to the grave. It is my favourite place I've ever been.

But honestly, I understand the context for Winnie the Pooh... I just feel like it doesn't land as hard here as a straight up Taiwan Sun?

Also, for context, I live right next to Harvard. You can imagine the dirty looks I might get, walking around there as a white dude with the ROC emblem... Knowing exactly what I'm doing 😬

I hear you. I don't know what else to do though, it's what I have from my visit to Taiwan... And I love it, and I love Taiwan. Not sure how else to show my support, but am genuinely open to suggestions! What else can I do?

I don't care. Perfection is perfection 🤣

Fair enough, I'd be disgusted having him anywhere near me too 😆

It's all part of their plan.

I consistently wear a hat with the ROC / Taiwan logo on it. Sometimes I get dirty looks...

I only want to know: how and does it really work?! I already know that it's amazing

I love this. Calm, cool, collected, and SPOT ON. Absolute class in utterly destroying that stupid talking point.

Or maybe the problem is actually exactly how believable it is that people think this way. It's still what the F though.

Just... What the F. Unbelievable.

I manage people smarter than me who help organizations, mostly non-profits, find ways to more effectively accomplish their missions. There is no boo boo ice, but sometimes there is beer or cocktails.

Yes, there is that too. Credit to the ones who do, but the lack of more widespread outrage is heartbreaking and demoralizing.

Every single climate activist should be talking about this just as much as every humanitarian activist is.
There are no words to accurately frame the absolutely disgusting nature of this catastrophic waste of... Everything.

I don't judge! That's a wonderful looking plant, who I hope has greener times ahead! 😉
