But I don’t think tankies would mind being called “Moist”.
Oh, sorry, I thought you meant “Maoist”.

- Comment on Was there a Cold War conflict where the Soviets funded the right-wingers and the Americans funded the communists? 2 months ago:
The closest I can think of: I think there was a crazy time when the People's Republic of China and, to a lesser extent, the US were together(!) backing "Democratic Kampuchea" (i.e. the Khmer frickin' Rouge) against the invading (USSR-allied) Socialist Republic of Vietnam and its proxy, the People's Republic of Kampuchea.
So, the US, softly, backing a bunch of far-left lunatics against a less-far-left bunch backed indirectly by the Soviets.
From Wikipedia
The Cambodian–Vietnamese War was an armed conflict between the Khmer Rouge-led Democratic Kampuchea and the Socialist Republic of Vietnam. It began in December 1978, with a Vietnamese invasion of Cambodia which toppled the Khmer Rouge and ended in 1989 with the withdrawal of Vietnamese forces from Cambodia. This Cold War conflict was part of the Third Indochina War and Sino-Soviet split with the Soviet Union supporting Vietnam and China supporting the Khmer Rouge.

Watched it last night, on Mometu.
- I hadn't seen it before.
- Mometu had the version that ends with her daughter and the birthday cake, which I believe is the slightly longer version.
- It was fantastic!

The one on Mometu is 1hr 39mins 51secs. Prime has it, "1hr 39mins".
I tried looking up info to see which cut that was but had to stop to avoid spoilers.
Any idea which that is?

I can't quite remember if I've seen this or if I'm thinking of another caving horror movie.
Either way, I found it on legit free streaming and will watch it when it's dark (oh wait, it's #Monsterdon tonight, maybe in a few nights).

As usual with Taiwan, it's... complicated.
Residents of mainland China, which is now under the jurisdiction of the People's Republic of China (PRC), were identified as nationals given the pre-1949 history of the Republic of China. In May 2023, Executive Yuan released a policy memorandum to clarify that: "The people of mainland China do not have ROC nationality, and hence are not ROC nationals." (中國大陸人民不具中華民國國籍、非屬中華民國國民)[12] Legal scholars, on the other hand, argue that the matter is not resolved as executive branch explanations are not legally binding to courts. Hence, unless amended by the Legislative Yuan, both the Nationality Act and the Cross-Strait Act still include citizens of Mainland China (i.e., the PRC) as ROC nationals.
