Frankly I don't see the re-branding of taike (into a cultural term) as a self-strengthening movement. In fact, I see it as helping racism in Taiwan. With its double meaning, prosecution of such racism would be much more difficult.<BR/>The pan-blue media have contributed heavily in pushing the term into popular culture, and it's not difficult to tell where their sympathy lies.<BR/>CBC have a short documentary on the 'n-word' (http://www.cbc.ca/national/blog/video/immigrationdiversity/banning_the_nword.html).Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
