An Unforeseen and Unstoppable Chain of Causes...

Social political transformation sometimes results from a chain of causes that can neither be predicted nor contained by those in power with dictatorial instincts and lots of money seeking to keep their power and suppress the people.

Wow.

This is not a win for Tsai Ing-wen.

This win of pro-Taiwan candidates today (and humiliation of the KMT) is the fruit of Hong Kong's protestors exposing the true nature of China. It is with this brutal, lying Chinese communist regime that the KMT has formed an axis with the eventual goal of forcing the homeland of Taiwanese to be annexed by the alien Chinese communist regime...

This win is also (and more directly) the fruit of the Sunflower Movement whom the Hong Kong protestors emulated...

the Sunflower Movement whose non-violent actions exposed the conscienceless violence of those KMT in power...

and whose clear communication and non-partisanship helped awaken the younger generation of Taiwanese to the need for political action...

This win is also the fruit of Lin Yi-hsiung, whose decades of organized non-violent peaceful civil disobedience and protest served as the model for the Sunflower movement...

whose fast in the late spring to stop the Fourth Nuclear Power Plant further awakened and educated the Taiwanese people...

whose past suffering for the sake of human rights and democracy was reintroduced to a younger generation...

whose own walk was inspired by great men of earlier generations such as Mahatma Gandhi and Martin Luther King, Jr.
