> If you are OK with Texas leaving the union, then you are entitled to support Taiwan independence.

Are these similar? Texas is part of the union and WANTS to stay in the union. Taiwan is independent does NOT want to be part of China. They don't seem similar to me.

They are similar in that there are laws reconigized domestically and internationally to block Texas and Taiwan from becoming independent from their home country.
