It’s a reference to the Chinese civil war. When it was clear the communists were going to win the head of the nationalist Kuomintang party Chiang Kai shek fled to Taiwan and established the modern republic of China (Taiwan) in hopes of eventually returning and retaking the mainland after communism collapsed or the US decided to get involved. After they left mao mopped up the remaining nationalist forces and established the people’s republic of China, both of them claim to be the legitimate government of both Taiwan and the mainland.

Before anyone starts to think there’s a good guy in this story:

some have taken upon themselves to honor KitKat in distinctly Silicon Valley-style ways. Zeidan (part of cats family) has released a memecoin honoring KitKat’s legacy, and also said that he was disappointed to see others launch their own imitation tokens in an attempt to profit off KitKat’s death.

He says he’s going to use the money to support local vets, but why don’t you just share some links to spca to donate directly, you’re providing nothing but a way for you to grift by taking the money through meme coins.
