台北市長蔣萬安要求民進黨立委蔡其昌為「弱智」一詞向全體台北市民道歉,理由是不能傷害市民尊嚴。然而,10月9日蔣萬安自己才形容台灣甚至台北選民「不理性」,引發爭議後,以澄清回應。同樣涉及選民的負面評價,兩種處理方式為何不同?

11月1日,蔡其昌為民進黨台北市長候選人沈伯洋助講,質疑蔣萬安的「生生喝鮮奶」政績,反問:「當一個首都的市長如果政見、政績只有鮮奶,你覺得台北市民是弱智嗎?」措辭尖銳,卻是針對市長以政績爭取認同所提出的反問。蔣萬安將其視為對市民的言語傷害,要求蔡其昌道歉。

請繼續往下閱讀...

蔣萬安10月9日接受專訪,回顧2025年大罷免期間的對立,說:「我從來沒有感受到台灣,甚至台北的選民會變成這麼的不理性。」這是他對當時選民行為的直接評價。事後蔣萬安澄清,強調尊重選民判斷,民意面前必須謙卑。

蔣萬安可以透過澄清說明原意,蔡其昌的反問卻只能按照最不利的字面理解?蔣萬安談大罷免可以主張是在描述社會氛圍,蔡其昌質疑市長政績,為何連他所指向的施政對象都不予辨明?要求別人為措辭負責,自己的發言同樣應接受檢視。

蔣萬安強調台北政績不只有鮮奶,並細數政策推行的困難。這正是市長應回答的問題:鮮奶政策的成效如何,還有哪些市政成果值得市民檢驗?當市長把政治批評轉成要求道歉的爭議,市民原本要聽的施政說明反而退居其次。

蔣萬安說台北市民很有智慧。市民也記得,短短24天前,市長自己如何評價選民。別人的反問必須道歉,自己的直述可以澄清,這把尺若要用來捍衛市民尊嚴,就該先量量握尺的人。

Candidates for district chief suggested asking spinal cord patients to move out. Chen Zhizhong angrily criticized: KMT and Zheng Liwen made it clear

The political statement of Ma Longrong, the KMT's candidate for Zhongchun District Chief in Qianzhen District, Kaohsiung City, mentioned that he "plans to ask the Social Affairs Bureau to move people with spinal cord injuries out of the community," triggering strong condemnation from former Kaohsiung City Councilor Chen Zhizhong and DPP Qianzhen Xiaogang District Councilor Huang Yanyu. Chen Zhizhong said that his mother has been in a wheelchair for more than 40 years. He criticized the statement as cold-blooded and cruel, and demanded that the Kuomintang and Cheng Liwen apologize and clarify. Ma Longrong later clarified that the posting was a mistake, saying that an old internal file of residents' complaints was accidentally listed by the administrator, and apologized to netizens. Huang Yanyu criticized him for blaming management problems on vulnerable groups and then shirk responsibility afterwards, demanding that he admit his mistakes head-on.

Ding Shouzhong and Guanzhong launch cross-strait peace initiative. Mainland Affairs Council: The biggest threat is the CCP

Mainland Affairs Council Chairman Qiu Chuizheng emphasized in an interview that the CCP's policy is still to eliminate the Republic of China and annex Taiwan, and not giving up force against Taiwan is the biggest risk in the Taiwan Strait. He criticized the CCP's warplanes and ships' harassment of Taiwan, diplomatic suppression, economic coercion and other compound pressures as the root cause of instability in the Taiwan Strait. He also said that Taiwan is willing to communicate and dialogue with the CCP under the principle of reciprocity and dignity, and maintains the status quo of stability in the Taiwan Strait without being humble or overbearing.
