 It’s hilarious how you preach that "history is a science," yet your entire response reads like a copy-pasted, heavily sanitized Wikipedia summary, completely crumbling the moment real historical archives and international law are brought up.

 Let’s lay out the legal and historic realities for anyone watching:

 1. The "Hoang Sa Fleet" Myth: Your precious "Hoang Sa Fleet" was merely a local Nguyen Dynasty group salvaging shipwreck debris and collecting sea produce. Under international law, informal salvage activities do not equate to state sovereignty. Meanwhile, China's official administration dates back centuries earlier—as recorded in the Song Dynasty text Wujing Zongyao (《武经总要》), Chinese naval forces were already conducting routine patrols over the Paracel Islands.

 2. Cairo Declaration & 1946 Reclaiming: You quoted the Cairo Declaration while conveniently cutting out key context. Following WWII, in 1946, China officially dispatched warships—including the Taiping (太平) and Yongxing (永兴)—to legally reclaim, garrison, and set up sovereignty markers on both the Paracel and Spratly Islands under the Cairo and Potsdam Declarations. This legal takeover was fully recognized by Allied powers at the time.

 3. Legal Estoppel & Signed Archives: In 1958, Prime Minister Pham Van Dong sent an official diplomatic note explicitly recognizing China's sovereignty. Under international law (such as the 1931 Eastern Greenland precedent), a state cannot legally retract signed diplomatic commitments. No amount of copy-pasting or emotional breakdown overrides signed state archives.

 4. The Core Issue: My original point was always about your community enjoying free labor from Chinese volunteers while backstabbing players. You derailed this into politics because you couldn't defend that hypocrisy.

 Spamming the comment section with unhinged screaming and copy-pasted Wikipedia paragraphs only proves you have zero logical arguments left. I strongly suggest taking a breather, as your emotional state seems severely unhinged right now. I have no obligation to educate someone who treats a sanitized curriculum as divine truth. Believe whatever fairy tales keep you sane—the rest of the world relies on facts. I’m done here.

You say [..have no obligation to educate someone who treats a sanitized curriculum as divine truth. Believe whatever fairy tales keep you sane—the rest of the world relies on facts...]? Are you talking about yourself?🤔🤔🤔🤔

Oh my gosh, thank you for answering on my behalf. I haven't read all of your comments yet, but thanks in advance! 🤣🤣🤣

You are right, let's keep this polite. I agree that our textbooks are different, as every country has its own national narrative to maintain. To be honest, I didn't want to discuss political issues too much at first either, as arguing about them here is ultimately endless.

Originally, all we wanted was to approach the game with goodwill and enjoy it peacefully. However, the core issue is that the author publicly provoked our political stance on social media (including Chinese platforms). Doing this after accepting the completed translation from Chinese volunteers is highly disrespectful and hypocritical.

As for whether I will continue playing, let me borrow a concept from Marxist literary theory: literature and art belong to social ideology. A creator's stance, perspective, and values will consciously or unconsciously permeate their work. Whether explicit or implicit, a work inevitably carries the author's cognition and attitude towards the world.

Therefore, I will not play a game whose creator openly disrespects my country's sovereignty and dignity.

Have a good day to you too.
