Sadly, the KMT is now pro-communist. They've gone from "we are China!" to "we must retake the mainland!" to, now, "we must reunify with the mainland (and hope the CCP will give us back the power we lost over Taiwan as the only approved uniparty in Taipei SAR)."
And even worse, the KMT pretty much totally runs Taiwan's military. I fully expect them to pull a Ukraine if/when China finally does try to invade, and just hand over their fleet and their warplanes to China while all the "we want freedom!" people look on with their mouths dropping open in shock.
Indeed, it's very disappointing, they definitely aren't the same generation that led my grandfather and millions like him in China's pre-Cultural Revolution darkest hour. Here's hoping the Taiwanese patriots can dig the KMT out of the Taiwanese military and police while they still have time, if nothing else the last election proved they have the support of the people to do so after all.
