    Not at all, most people are normal. It's just the news that reports on the extreme cases.

      Exactly, we don't dislike normal people.

        Being an annoying person has nothing to do with nationality, right?

          Yeah, it's about character.

            Sometimes, the refusal to discuss something speaks volumes. It's just a way of politely cloaking one's true position.

              Otherwise, what's there to talk about? There are no inherent enemies in the world, just different standpoints. You'll understand if you spend enough time in neutral territories. I work in duty-free, and Taiwanese people are much easier to get along with than Hongkongers...

                There's something that has always baffled me: some people try to bargain for everything and then tell me it's because in China, you can even bargain for a bus fare. This actually happened.

                  It's easy to spread rumors. You can haggle at street stalls, but supermarkets and shops have fixed prices. Bus fares are like 1 or 2 yuan no matter the distance, who would haggle over that?

                    To be honest, I don't really like talking politics... After all, we can't change each other's minds, so it's better not to discuss it...

                      Don't worry, it'll be changed sooner or later.

                        The vast majority of people in Taiwan are very friendly. I've been there twice, staying for nearly 6 months in total. The people seemed great. It's just that the traffic on the roads is really fast.
