Usually I am not this unkind to others on Wiki but your condenscending tone as well as your own unwillingness to think outside a narrow paradigm has brought me to it The dictionary Webster defines a separatist as among other things One who advocates disjunction of a group from a larger group or political unit I ll break this down so you can understand Disjunction means to break a connection was the KMT connected to Taiwan at the time Yes Legal or not a definite political connection existed i e the KMT was in charge Was the KMT a larger political unit At the time yes since they still occupied the mainland Did the insurgents want to break Taiwan s existing connection with the KMT Yes Therefore the insurgents were separatists And therefore your arguments involving Taiwan s legal status or basically all your posts since the very beginning of the discussion are irrelevant I suggest consulting a dictionary so you know what the term in question actually means before launching into a pseudo intellectual spiel that amounts to little more than mental masturbation It would likely improve the quality of your contributions both to Wiki and to the Internet as a whole Good day kind sir
