Like many Westerners, people in Taiwan have been ridiculing the
bizarre, self-destructive policies of the Chinese Communist Party
(CCP).
The latest bit of mockery and derision is an inflatable "Tank Man"
display, appearing in Liberty Square in Taiwan's capital city Taipei.
In China, even mentioning Tank Man can get you arrested and tortured,
but in Taiwan, ridiculing its neighbor China is common.
