Is the General Secretary of the Chinese Communist Party the same person as the President of Taiwan, then?
If you are talking about the President of Taiwan, are you comparing a role that's existed since 1 January 1912 (25 October 1945 in its current form) to one that existed 18 February 1861 – 5 May 1865 and had exactly one officeholder?
They are. And they're comparing glorious revolutionary China to the dastardly imperialist pig dogs in the US.
Tankies are a confused bunch.
