Chopper Dave!

Well said. I’ve had countless conversations about this as well. Either people are too ignorant to understand military aid or are arguing in bad faith. It’s kind of insane how many upvotes these comments get.

It seems like you don’t grasp the concept of military aid still. And now you are changing the subject. It’s ok to admit you don’t understand military aid and just say you used it the wrong context. Taiwan has a right to protect itself, full stop. It sounds like you are anti-American and anti-Taiwan, so I’ll end this conversation here.

I see these comments every time military aid is talked about. Military aid isn’t just sending money. It can include weapons, equipment, training, or other support to help a country defend itself or strengthen its military. Sometimes, the aid is in the form of funds, but often it’s specific resources like tanks, aircraft, or technical expertise. Believe it or not, it helps the US economy while also helping our allies protect themselves without risk to american lives. Taiwan has the right to stand up for itself, unless you are against that policy stance I’m not sure what else to say.
