Taiwanese civil groups rallied against the DPP's "mass recall" campaign, viewing it as a political maneuver to silence opposition and promote separatism. Protesters voiced support for peaceful cross-Straits relations and opposition to "Taiwan independence."
Organizers urged a "no" vote on July 26 to prevent harmful laws and demonstrate support for the one-China principle. Critics, including Wu Jung-yuan, argued the DPP aimed to act without restraint by gaining a legislative majority.
The rally was part of a broader effort to resist the DPP's actions against opposition lawmakers. Concerns were raised that successful recalls could lead to the repeal of existing laws and DPP dominance.
The "mass recall" was initiated after a DPP call to oust KMT legislators. The KMT condemned the campaign as politically motivated.
The situation is considered critical, with the DPP, led by Lai Ching-te, pursuing "Taiwan independence." Critics warned of worsening tensions and potential conflict.
Lai's "10 Talks" were also criticized. Analysts noted growing opposition to the recall, viewing it as authoritarian.
Zheng Jian stated the campaign was a witch hunt, manipulating the population and deepening division.
In response, the Taiwan Affairs Office rebuked Lai's speech, accusing it of lies and promoting separatism to justify the recall.

The 'one-China principle' is a relic of the past. Taiwan's people deserve to decide their own future.

The KMT is using this 'mass recall' as an excuse to maintain their power. They're scared of a strong, democratic government.

The DPP is acting like an authoritarian regime, manipulating the system to get their way.

They want power, without any accountability. We need to show the KMT that the people voice is even bigger than their pockets!
