I remember watching it and thinking the opposite.

The article states that the guy was incredibly pro-KMT, which is about as anti-CCP as you can get. His perspective was interesting, but it is disappointing to find out he's a plant.

> pro-KMT, which is about as anti-CCP as you can get

This isn't a binary issue. Historically, the KMT was the main opposition to the CCP, but both of these factions claim control over the mainland of China.

The DPP (the greens) are both anti-CCP and anti-KMT, since the DPP is pro-independence; China is China, while Taiwan is Taiwan, and neither is a part of the other.

The KMT is not as anti-CCP as you can get, why do you say that?
I didn’t interpret what that guy said in the same way you did.
So why I wonder is this video coming up in our feeds?

Could it be because the CCP want westerners to hear the message of how people in Taiwan actually want to unify with China?

Yes I think so. The CCP know how to get things promoted on social media.
