How do I prepare in case China invades? I know you guys tend to be pretty good at figuring this sort of thing out
>Just run away back to America
No.
>Be American living in Taiwan. >Taiwan wont let me join their Military reserves
You’re retarded
Just stand still and eat a PLA PGM in the face.
If you want a shitpile of chemicals to make explosives with, get in touch, I'm leaving and am going to have to destroy them.
Hmm, not sure how the hell to do the handoff without both of us getting arrested.
bury them in the forest, send gps cords after.
I remember your last post. Why tf didn’t they let you join? Are you a Taiwanese resident?
He’s a fucking english teacher. In other words, worthless.
Actually i'm a biology teacher.
Even more worthless. Kys
Are you teaching in an international school or where? How did you get the job? Last year I tried emailing the international schools about teaching CS, but never heard back. I even have an OWP and APRC already.
Do you mean why wont they let an American join the Taiwanese reserves? You have to be a citizen to join another countries army.
bro if all the chinks pee at the same time they probably gonna drown them
Chinese drink pee so if they did all pee at once half of them would just drink it all back
you say that like its a bad thing
Insurgency baybee. Build a trap (preferably remote detonated explosive) and use it to get ahold of a chink rifle, then build a makeshift suppressor and become the urban sniper.
>Just run away back to America
>No
Frankly? Based.
You might be prohibited from joining the Taiwanese military reserves, but in the event of a full-blown invasion, they're probably going to go full Ukrainian TDF and just start handing out assault rifles to anyone willing to use them. I doubt they're going to give a damn about your citizenship status.
What can you do in the interim? Build up skill sets. I have zero idea what Taiwan's gun laws are like, but even if private gun ownership is banned/restricted there might be gun ranges, rifle clubs, etc. you could go to. At the very least, there might be a shooting gallery with laser training non-guns.
Other than that, taking a first aid class is never a bad idea. Stockpile food and drinking water, know where to go if the air raid sirens go off, and things as minor as making sure there's fresh batteries in your flashlight.
It's not preparation for blowing up Type 99 tanks in the streets and shouting Wolverines, but with such minimal effort, you'll be less of a burden in an emergency than 99.9% of the population.
The closest thing Taiwan has for civilians is airshit carnival games at their night market. It's admittedly looks kinda fun; they have a spinning wheel with balloons placed around the circumference and you have to shoot them out to win.
I literally just played that today. I did pretty good.
There likely milita training for the ordinary people to do if china invade. First aid training alongside firing range being used.
If you do live there with a GF or wife with kids, be prepared.
/thread
This is the only serious answer in this thread and it's also valid for anyone everywhere since it's a bare minimum for someone to be prepared on such scenarios.
Since nobody else seems to know wtf they are talking about, here's what you need to do:
The U.S. does not have an official Embassy in China thanks to fucking Kissinger's satanic wickedness, but it does have the American Institute in Taiwan www.ait.org.tw which performs 99.5% of all Embassy functions, including aiding and repatriating U.S. citizens when necessary.
Call them, introduce yourself, tell them you don't know how best to proceed or how to leave if you want to, and/or what you should do if hostilities begin.
They will have every answer you need and if they know you're out there, they will attempt to reach you in an emergency.
It's advisable to do this in ANY country you plan to spend more than a few days in if traveling solo or in a small party.
So go make friends. Maybe they'll try and recruit you as a spook lol
You should probably get a gun but I don't think China 2 allows them so enjoy getting killed.
Fergeddaboutit. What can you, a non-Chinese civvie do to help there?
If a war kicks off, America will evac their citizens, so get in touch with the American Institute and proceed to the evacuation locations. If you're early enough, you could probably even just take a commercial flight home.
Learn to fly a small drone modified to drop dummy grenades or use an infrared camera.
Another good skill would be to learn how to camp in the mountains and be mostly self sufficient.
Retard larper kys
You're just like the volunteers for Ukraine gays on Reddit but even more retarded
>NOOOOO you can't discuss using weapons for warfare on a weapon board. YOU JUST CANT
Cope and seethe, you will never be a hero
I wonder who is behind this post
It's not necessary to be a marvel hero, sweaty. All that is needed is to fight on the side of good.
CCP seethe post
>YOU ARE CHINESE IF YOU DONT ENTERTAIN MY REDDIT LARP
Kek
>Reddit reddit reddit reddit
Yeah, Chinese mad
Lmao what the fuck is wrong with you retards. He never even suggested he liked china he just hates reddit larpers, and it seems to have struck a nerve.
>This Chinamen is this scared of having a single American on Taiwans side
WTF, how powerful are Americans?
America is already on ROC's side retard. Just because I refuse to entertain some gay larper that will contribute nothing to the island's defense isn't shilling for China kek. He made this post multiple times and I'm sick of it
>I'M HECKIN SICK OF YOU EVIL WHITE DEVIL'S TALKING ABOUT PROTECTING HECKIN EVIL CAPITALIST ISLAND
Kek it's fucking hilarious how triggered you get because someone won't coddle you and tell you how hecking brave you are. Either join the USN or fuck off with your gay larp
I'm not that anon. I'm laughing at you for being a triggered Chinese.
Russian bots did the same thing for the foreign volunteers and it's so obvious
>Going out and heckin volunteering is cringe please stop killing our Russian soldiers!
Ex military personnel with experience and expertise going to Ukraine to kill vatniks is completely different from redditors and gays with 0 experience/diabetes are two completely different things.
>Heckin redditors
You really think this buzzword is going to stop Americans from killing you en mass don't you?
>literal schoolteacher with 0 military experience
>wow this gay will totally save ROC from the chinks and not just become a burden
Join the USN if you're serious about defending Taiwan, or fuck off.
You claim to have seen the last thread but if you did you would remember OP was trying to join the Navy reserves.
Clearly he hasn't done such since he's a retard larper with a hero complex.
>No actual response
>Just buzzwords
China isn't sending their best
>LARPER LARPER REDDIT REDDIT
>"Actually he is joining the military"
>LARPER LARPER
lol
Do you know how long it takes to actually join the military in America?
The fact that you are this scared of a of a single American wanting to help Taiwan really goes to show how weak your military is.
Chang fears the burger.
>Uh you are the heckin reddits, there now that I said that you can't kill us en mass
Some of us are actually in Taiwan and prepping. Not everyone plans to run for the airport.
enjoy dying to BIG DONG, retard
hopefully you livestream your death
>Big Dong
Anon, the Chinese will invade. Not a single big dong around
>enjoy dying to BIG DONG, retard
prc voice: but muh heckin' long-range missiles!
I'm already dying, Anon. I would love to take some PLA chinsects with me to Hell.
Hurry the fuck up and invade, you Chink bastards.
It's not, it's the phonetic characters system that Taiwan uses to teach children how to sound out characters. There's no link between a Chinese character and its sound, so they basically have to memorize every single one. BPMF is similar to hiragana or katakana in concept. They also use them as a keyboard input method on smartphones.
Picrelated is only partial. I couldn't find a good chart image.
Just have a nice day before they kill you
I don't get the posting about untrained insurgents being completely useless in warfare, regardless of the political context. It's not unheard of for people to enter a war with hardly any training and be useful. You just have a much greater chance of dying.
This. China's military strategy was to send untrained people to the battlefield. Even now their military spends 40% of their time reading communist propaganda rather than training (look it up).
>Be American living in Taiwan
>Want to fight the Chinese
>Get shot by Chinese gun drone like a bitch.
And then you woke up Chinese anon, living sadly in China
Typically after an invasion starts it's all hands on deck.
>How do I prepare in case China invades?
Body armour, thermal spotting scope, crossbow, propane gas cylinder, road flares, timber planking and six inch nails, Non Chinese drones, wine bottles and jerry cans of gas, two stroke oil, MREs, soft tissue antibiotics, first aid course, target shooting, optical rangefinder. Bleach, Ammonia, magnesium, powdered aluminium, powdered iron oxide, air float charcoal, saltpetre, nailgun blanks, pressure cookers, bags of ceramic ball bearings. Hole in the ground 3M deep and surrounded by concrete 1M thick on all sides and above with an entrance passage with two 90 degree turns. Barned wire, razor wire, caltrops, spot welder, angle grinder, laminated maps, scuba certification and tank, knife and scabbard, judo and Shotokan lessons, five mile runs and boxing training.
You're missing camping and water filters. Also extremely important for this expat-anon to become fluent in mandarin and possibly hokkien, another good one would be to learn bopomofo, since the Mainland Chinese never learn it, while all Taiwanese know it.
>bopomofo
this sounds make up. like it's the setup to something like bopomofodeez nuts
Are you preparing for a Chinese invasion, or to kidnap young mothers at 4am.
Kinomen islands
I don't know if you ever go back to the US for vacation or seeing family, but if so, that'd be a good opportunity to get some time in at a gun range. Despite what some people will tell you, you don't need a jillion hours of practice and a three-day tactical training course to learn how to use a long weapon reasonably well.
