How the US Runs Taiwan’s Government & Why It Must Stop

Audrey Tang, Taiwan’s Digital Minister, will be one of two representatives from Taiwan attending the US “Summit for Democracy.” Audrey Tang has taken the opportunity to taunt China – but in the process has exposed everything that is currently wrong with both Taiwan’s current government, and the notion of Western-style “democracy.”

Digging deeper into Audrey Tang’s background reveals her function as a vector of immense US government interference in Taiwan’s internal political affairs including participation in a US government supported network attempting to control public information regarding daily news, politics, and elections in Taiwan.

The “Summit for Democracy” has nothing to do with “democracy,” and is instead a showcase of America’s modern empire, including the many members of its imperial court, including Audrey Tang.
