One China, the idea that Taiwan and Tibet (and some other geographical oddities) has been a central part of communist national spirit for decades, what you're seeing in this thread is a demonstration of how a nationalised education designed to drive an agenda embeds an opinion in national psyche. It's all about national spirit, geopolitics and economics be damned. Thankfully economic intergration means too many people have too much to lose but it's going to be used as a pole to beat certain governmental figures around the head with and everyone will get a little uppity while they sort out who's boss.
