How anyone serious can side with taiwan, other than maybe some nazis, is beyond me.

US/UK/EU/AU/NZ Media:

"Taiwan is freedom and democracy."
"China is authoritarian. (Shows footage of police retaliating against ultra-aggressive Hong Kong rioters or journalists doing reporting on the middle of a busy road or someone's garden before being ushered away by traffic cops or security)"

Done.
