Font size

Veteran musician Luo Dayou appeared on "Flying Saucer Breakfast" hosted by Tang Xianglong yesterday (10th) and criticized the Democratic Progressive Party for lowering Taiwan's cultural standards. When talking about the election, he even pointed out that "people from other provinces have been bullied badly enough." In this regard, Chen Shifen (penname: Ong Darui), a professor living in the United States, pointed out that he hopes Luo Dayou will "honestly state your national identity, clearly explain the benefits of Taiwan being annexed by China, and do not play with false blood identity." If you cannot clearly explain the benefits of Taiwan being annexed by China, then just be a Taiwanese.

Ong Darui posted on Facebook that Luo Dayou was born in Taiwan. Although he went to China for a period of development and eventually returned to Taiwan to live permanently, he considered himself Chinese. Taiwan is Chinese land and will eventually belong to China. He cannot accept Luo Dayou's national identity.

Ondary pointed out that he must clarify that there is no such race as "Chinese". If Luo Dayou is obsessed with blood identity, he revealed that there are no Chinese or Chinese ethnic groups in anthropological classification. The descendants of dragons, like dragons, are just legends and do not exist in real life.

Ondary further pointed out that in addition to the general term of ethnicity, Chinese can also represent nationality. Ethnicity comes from inheritance, not personal choice, and there is no mandatory relationship of rights and obligations for the group. Nationality is a contractual relationship, which can be changed if dissatisfied, and rights and obligations must be equal. As representatives of nationality, Chinese can be people from the Republic of China or the People's Republic of China. The sovereignty of the two is different, and the relationship between rights and obligations is also different. In addition, the two are in a hostile state, and the latter has the ambition to annex the former.

Ong Darui said that Luo Dayou claimed to be Chinese, but did not specify whether they identified with blood or nationality. After excluding blood identity, Chinese can only represent the identity of nationality, but Luo Dayou did not distinguish between the Republic of China and the People's Republic of China. This is a sophistry trick of Luo Dayou, using non-existent ethnic classification to claim to be Chinese, and then confusing the distinction between the Republic of China and the People's Republic of China, in an attempt to rationalize the latter's annexation of the former.

Ong Darui believes that Luo Dayou's sophistry is an act of treason. On the one hand, Luo Dayou enjoys the civil rights of the Republic of China, but on the other hand, he neglects his civic duty to defend the Republic of China. What's worse is that Luo Dayou humiliates Taiwan's democracy, slanders Taiwan's national leaders, but ignores China's dictatorship, and even uses false ethnic identity as an excuse for China to annex Taiwan.

Ong Darui said directly that Luo Dayou's national identity is on the other side of the Taiwan Strait, which he can respect, and Luo Dayou's choice to live in Taiwan permanently, which he can also accept. He has only one request for Luo Dayou, "Be honest about your national identity, explain clearly the benefits of Taiwan being annexed by China, and don't play with false blood identity." If Luo Dayou cannot explain clearly the benefits of Taiwan being annexed by China, then he should honestly be a Taiwanese, enjoy the rights of Taiwanese citizens, fulfill the obligations of Taiwanese citizens, and defend Taiwan from annexation by China.
