      According to another in this thread:

      the bill introduces criminal penalties for officials caught lying in parliament.

      I think the current DPP goverment lacks a majority in congress. The KMT + their allies are trying to limit the Executive branch powers and the DPP are angry because now they won’t be able to do shit to sabotage a future unification with China.

          Yeah they’re more amicable towards normalizing relations with the PRC and future reunification. It’s strange but these days the DPP are Washington’s main puppets.

      I like traditional for the aesthetic, like if you’re gonna make old school signage or calligraphy, it just looks better. But for everyday reading and writing it’s just so much more tedious. Simplifying the characters was the right decision when it comes to education and accessibility.

    Honestly I don’t understand why politicians don’t do this shit more often. Just delaying say, bombs for Israel or cutting medicaid for a day can save dozens of lives, and show your constituency you understand what these bills mean for real human beings.

    But no, every time it’s for the worst possible, like promoting corruption or disenfranchizing serbs or something.

      That’s because it’s fun and whimsical when the worst people do it, so they are allowed to get away with shenanigans.

      If someone did this to delay bombs for Israel they’d be stopped by force.
