Yeah I was about to say, if they're taking credit for the LBGT win. That means they're accepting LGBT as a win? A weird bright side/step in the right direction even if it has bad intentions.

I mean if you take the angle these Taiwanese don't want to be anything like China and legalizing same-sex marriage is one way to do that--then sure China was the reason.

Otherwise China is just being China and wanting to overreach their authority over Taiwan
