Some people just need to move on.
ReplyDelete"Some people just need to move on."
ReplyDeleteI like that. Something to tell Sean Su's sister, wife, or daughter if someone who rapes one of them gets away scot free.
I did a search online for additional information regarding this case. As details are sparse, it's tempting though wrong and premature to jump to conclusions suggesting that this death was a murder rather than a suicide. Unfounded allegations, and hints of allegations (rather than those directly stated), hurt rather than help the cause of those making them. Honestly, as tragic as this case is, IMO it is unlikely that there is some nefarious governmenta plot against her for the simple reason that she's too small a "fish" for would-be conspirators to fry.
ReplyDelete"Some people just need to move on."
ReplyDeleteIs this the voice of Taiwan independence? Forget the truth and justice part, move along, nothing to see here.
Dear la,
ReplyDeleteThis is the same heartless way they deal with the poor "comfort women" abducted and raped by their Japanese masters. And these poor women weren't even "mainlanders."
If they feel this little compassion for "native Taiwanese" women, so-called, imagine how little compassion they feel for the mainland women murdered during the Rape of Nanking?
Taiwan independence bigots do such a good job of discrediting the Taiwan independence movement on their own, we hardly need to refute them.

Bevin, I certainly didn't write that comment.
ReplyDeleteHowever it isn't the first time someone comes to your site, shocked to find that someone posing as them has written a link on your page.
Considering its happened quite a few times to quite a few people, I wouldn't be surprised if its just you trolling around.
In the political realm, there are basically two types of people.
ReplyDeleteOne type is "people oriented." This type of person believes in people vs. people struggles. Victory means that one person as opposed to another person has won.
The other type is "idea oriented." This type of person believes in idea vs. idea struggles. Victory means that one idea as opposed to another idea has won.
As long time readers of the China Desk know full well, the China Desk is firmly in the latter category.
Knowing this, the China Desk is confident long time readers will draw the correct conclusions about accusations of dirty tricks leveled at this blog.
That is all the time and energy I am willing to waste on such utterly pointless matters.
