What does "Reclaim the Mainland" mean?

In a World at War game, there are like 4 people in the newspaper that keep saying "Reclaim the Mainland". I don't know what that means - perhaps it's some fascist/communist chant? Is it reportable?

It's a Taiwanese/RoC song about uniting China by reclaiming the mainland from the PRC. Anti-communist. Not worth reporting i guess? Stop being Brando Dilla and there's no absolute reason you would report this.

Why would you report that anyway? Taiwan reclaiming the mainland would probably be a good thing anyway.

Yeah thats that Taiwan thing, because they previously controlled all of China before the communists took over. I guess its kinda nationalist, but theres no reason to report it.

Stay Sweet!

Reclaim the mainland is chanted by some mf sobs from Taiwan who can't accept the fact that their grandpas lost the civil war. Also how is communism equivalent to facism. Last time I checked communism didn't violate 80000 people in one city alone or try to commit systematic extermination to an entire ethnicity of people.

Yeah they only killed up to 50 million Chinese, along with a one-child policy that led to a horrid gender imbalance and population decline that will doom the country in the future. Unless America literally collapses (I mean that is kinda likely) itโ€™s already basically won Cold War 2.0โ€ฆ The Soviet Union did way better in the first Cold War, 0/10

Soviet Union was better communist state.

No, what I meant was that my family wouldn't be able to use the relations they have with certain people for profit.

Nepotism? Thatโ€™s not a capitalist thing, happens everywhere. Chinese businessmen do it all the time lol. I canโ€™t think of one country where that doesnโ€™t happen

Not exactly nepotism. It's something else. (Grabbing big contracts for companies using relations in return for a very small percentage of the contract)

Sitting on someone else's motherland and talking about reclaiming their motherland ;)

Are you talking about how China colonized Taiwan?

Are you talking about how we did that 1800 years ago?

Yep the Taiwanese government have committed genocide in order they can reside in the island. How did they get Mandarin Chinese in a tributary state that was Japanese for 80 years?

Yeah, China colonized Taiwan in the 1600โ€™s. At this point, the entire island is culturally Chinese, for the most part.

I am also talking about the nationalist government's exile to Taiwan.

Because Taiwan was controlled by china for close to 1800 years and chinese settlers have been at Taiwan for close to 400 years

Wasnโ€™t that more a suppression of everyone who didnโ€™t bow to the dictator rather than a genocide of one people group? Similar to what took place in Korea before democracy.
