@edolis According to recent reports Ukraine attacked the Kerch bridge with a modified S200 missile. While the attack was foiled, Russia closed the bridge as a reaction, provoking those long traffic jams.Sources in ongoing wars are not easy to come by, and the truth always is the first victim in any war.

@chrishuck @tk @cycling @mastobikesAs a Swiss elite cycling racer told me once: cx is one hour of freezing, suffering and going way over your limits. So a perfect winter work out.

Got a free Momentum single-speed bike from my hotel in #Tainan today and pedaled 5 miles / 8 km to a beach South of Anping and back. Felt great turning those legs again after a full week of just walking. Even chased a roadie on a super-expensive custom Colnago with Zipp wheels.Being at the beach was just as good: the sand, the beach, the ocean and no PLA in sight. Loved it despite the heat. #Taiwan #travel

After the massacre of #KfarAza, there can only be one place for #Hamas: hell. Or a mortuary if you are an agnostic like me. Dehumanizing and shocking atrocity that cannot be excused in any way. #NearEast

«Outgunned #Taiwan» - seriously? #XiJinping may be in for the biggest mistake ever in his confused thoughts when he thinks sending the #PLA into a war of #aggression against Taiwan will solidify his power.Nothing like that will happen, but his name will go down in history books as one of utter #infamy.#TaiwanisnotChina, and the world needs to make it clear to Pooh the horror bear that he'd better behave. #fucktheCCP https://www.theguardian.com/commentisfree/2023/dec/09/how-much-trouble-is-xi-really-in-outgunned-taiwan-may-be-about-to-find-out

Any military action on behalf of #China's #PLA before the #elections to be held in #Taiwan on January 13th is highly unlikely anyway. #XiJinping may get to negotiate with folks from the #KMT and #TPP who are much more likely to concede to him after that date - at least that's what he, the #CCP and its #UnitedFront minions are trying to achieve in the month ahead by massively interfering in Taiwan's internal affairs. #TaiwanisnotChina #fucktheCCP #FarEast

@moffintosh Nah, that nonsense is over since at least 10 to 15 years. Most folks would prefer to drop the silly "Republic of #China" name for "#Taiwan" as they identify as Taiwanese or Taiwanese and Chinese alike, not as solely Chinese anymore. The latter has dropped from 25% in 1992 to 2.5% in polls. See graph below for how this has evolved all the way to June 2023.Frankly I never refer to the country as ROC, but always as free and democratic Taiwan. Jiaoyou Taiwan! #FarEast

@moffintosh Yup. Because the murderous PR #China annexed Inner Mongolia and not all of it. Again: If it were not for Beijing's threats with war, this constitution would have been changed a LOOOOOONG time ago.I happily repeat: No sane-minded person in #Taiwan is calling for "retaking China" with force. Only Beijing is routinely sending jets and naval fleets and threatening with war.@multiburst

@moffintosh It does make a whole lot more sense than your ancient ROC maps, "dude". What exactly is your qualification regarding and connection to either Taiwan or China, if I may ask?@multiburst

To all those who now decry a witch hunt and a politicized #judiciary: The fact that the #14thamendment could be used to keep #Trump off the ticket of the #GOP has been brought up by none other than the #FederalistSociety, and that is far from being close to the Dems.A #democracy needs to be attentive and strong enough to keep a guy off the ballot who has attacked it before and has made it clear that he will try again.Shocking to see how #MAGA folks react with threats of violence.#UnitedStates

Here's the #MAGA scum taking things even one step further than political criminal and mobster Roger Stone: A #swatting call against special counsel #JackSmith on #christmaseve, do these deplorable bastards have any decency left?Swatting calls have seen deadly endings in the past repeatedly as in the US the police tends to soot first and ask after. So I would rate this as an attack on Smith's life, not just his privacy and his christmas celebration.#UnitedStateshttps://thehill.com/homenews/4397405-special-counsel-jack-smith-targeted-swatting/

Die angemessene Reaktion auf #Gewalt gegen Plakatierende und Politiker*innen ist übrigens NICHT "ja, aber Linksextreme greifen auch #AfD-Politiker und Stände an".Die angemessene Reaktion lautet "Gewalt hat in der #Politik nichts verloren - zumindest nicht im demokratischen #Rechtsstaat. Nur #Faschisten sehen in Gewalt ein legitimes und notwendiges Instrument, um ihre politischen Ziele zu erreichen."So geht #Demokratie - und nicht anders. #Deutschland#Sachsen #Dresden #Dunkelland #MatthiasEcke

Hab grad #Dresden als Suchbegriff bei der #Wutbuerger-Jauchegrube von der Alpha-#SpaceKaren eingegeben. Und könnte jetzt Strahlkotzen gehen.Musk hat Twitter zu X und zu einem Sammelbecken von offen #Rechtsextreme|n gemacht. Dafür gebührt dem #MadElon ewige Schande.PS: "Nazis töten." muss keine Aufforderung sein. Ist aber eine Feststellung. Nazis haben millionenfach getötet, Neonazis haben auch null Respekt für das Leben und die Gesundheit Andersdenkender. #Politik#socialmedia

Yup: there really are way too many scumbags in the ranks of #Taiwan's #KMT. Sung Chien-liang (宋建樑), the leader of a Kuomintang-backed campaign to recall a #DPP lawmaker, was wearing a Nazi armband and carrying a copy of Adolf Hitler's Mein Kampf when he repeatedly gave a Nazi salute in front of reporters outside the prosecutors' office on Tuesday.The man... is suspected of involvement in signature fraud relating to a recall vote campaign against a DPP lawmaker. https://focustaiwan.tw/politics/202504160009

We all know that #TaiwanisnotChina. Still the #CCP continues to bully athletes into giving up #Taiwan as their nationality and go for the #IOC-sanctioned nonsense known as "Chinese Taipei".The latest example for this bullying is Taiwanese pro cyclist #SergioTu who has been racing for Taiwan all his life only to see his Bahrain Victorious Team change his nationality now due to pressure from #China. Do NOT give in to Beijing's demands. Stand with free and democratic countries! #fucktheCCP

Please take note thata) #Taipei is not a country, it is the capital of free and democratic #Taiwan.b) not all inhabitants of Taiwan are ethnically Chinese. There's an indigenous population as well.c) Taiwan is not a province of #China and has never been ruled by the #CCP.d) an overwhelming majority of the people in Taiwan do not want to gibe up the country's sovereignty, do not wish to become a part of China and do not trust #Beijing to honor any agreements.#StandwithTaiwan #fucktheCCP
