It’s only political if you’re China. Everyone else is fine with “Taiwan”.

The CCP has such an incredibly thin skin. This is such a massive show of weakness.

It’s “political” in the sense that it involves politics. I think you mean to say that it isn’t “controversial” outside of China, but I would still disagree. A lot of countries are more influenced by China than Americans and Western Europeans, and are reluctant to use the name Taiwan or imply they are an independent nation.

Yeah, then their border patrol happily accepts the Taiwanese passport.

It’s not about thin skin or weakness. The point is to show China’s power, to force international agencies to bow down. They did. The message was sent and received.
