I don't think this a stunt, I think this is a real shift. Muslims used to be Republican voters until the Patriot Act passed, because they agreed with Christian conservatives on most things. W. Bush got something like 2/3 of the Arab and Muslim vote in 2000, but it flipped and 2/3 voted against him in 2004 and they've been Democrats ever since.

Pat Buchanan even wrote back then how the Christian Right shouldn't alienate Muslims since they are on the same side. He was ignored, just like when he was against NAFTA (which he was right about) and opposed the invasion of Iraq (which he was also correct).

Muslims being in the same party with all the LGBT and anti-religious zealots was never going to last.

There are ones in Somaliland who want the British to come back and still fly the Union Jack also I'm not really surprised. Also they probably vote largely along tribal affiliation so if you focus your political bullshit outreach in the right few places you win it all. Greasing the right wheels.

The four motherfuckers in front are all the same family, look at them...

Taiwan has closer ties to Chinese imperialism than china proper.
Maybe somewhat in the sense that they didn't actively reject it but they're both republics. The last sovereign dynasty in China was the Qing dynasty which ended in 1912. The last vestige of Chinese monarchy as far as I'm aware was the Manchukuo puppet regime in ww2 in Machuria but that doesn't count.

Both republics, not monarchies, therefore not really "imperial". That's what I meant. A republic can't be imperial, afaik except maybe Rome or something? A modern republic can't be imperial I don't think..

ROC can claim some sort of connection here because they didn't actively purge their society of any culture but neither of them would have an emperor.
