Despite Taiwan's charter stating very clearly that they are the rightful government of China, the people there identify as Taiwanese.

Oh, oops, I don't think I'm supposed to find contradictions.

Wow, you’re right! You have found the one chink in my armor that completely tears down my statement!

The Romanovs must all be British now.

The Dalai Lama must be American.

Lana Peters is Russian. So are all Ukrainians and Tatars that were forced to migrate.

I never said that Ukrainians must only identify as Ukrainians, just that it is the reason why folks outside of Kyiv choose to fight. Do not put words into my mouth.
