Many people only see Freddy on the stage but don't realise how much work he has done behind the stage to get where he is today. I think his greatest contribution to Taiwan has actually been encouraging young people to find their voice and become more engaged in politics.
As a tibetan, i'd say taiwan has right for self determination and independence. I support freedom, justice, human rights and free speech. H.H. the Dalai Lama is not only the spiritual leader, also leader of peace and justice.
John Oliver's HBO show got me interested in Freddy Lim and what he's trying to do for Taiwan. He reminds me of Serj Tankian and System of a Down for what they're trying to achieve for the Armenians.

The other 85% is a slow process which we call either ideological subversion or active measures or psychological warfare." Yuri Bezmenov He did some very interesting interviews.
@Shaun Micallef Fan Network : You should watch the Yuri Bezmenovm interview; it's one of the more interesting videos produced by the John Birch Society.
Seediq Bale was very clearly a black metal record. Everything else by them is imo more akin to Melodic/Blackened Death Metal. Especially Mirror of Retribution and Takasago Army are Death Metal records. I think it's not wrong to call them either a Black or a Death metal band^^
Weird/interesting? I agree with democracy from China, but not enough info to know if this guy is just another crazy narcissist/nationalist. He might be great, but I wish I knew more, even if I have no real power here...besides a voice.
From all I've read and heard he's just a guy who loves his country and his people. He expresses that in both his music and his politics. He's a nationalist who's pro lgbt and feminist (not in the crazy blue-haired authoritarian style, actually just pro equal rights) and generally more on the left-liberal side. He puts much value on the cultural identity and history of the Taiwanese people, both indigenious and ethnically chinese. Overall he seems like a reasonable and admirable person. That's my opinion^^
don't tell ppl the truth, haha.... his party founder exposed the current president smuggling cigarettes and bang, Fred left his party, in order to continue to get support from the ruling party... this guy definitely not a hero, but a speculator
Freddy did not kneel to DPP and he has no need to do it! Why don't you just admit , you are against the independence of Taiwan? You belong to the political minority in Taiwan, face the true result of the january 2020 elecation!
This guys is a joke in politics... Back in 2016, he got his "congress seat" (representing his own party, "time power"), actually GIVEN by DPP (pro-independence party, where the current president is from. Both parties had very close relationship). Later on, these two friend parties break up, because his party founder exposed the current president (from DPP) smuggling more than 10 000 cartons of cigarettes in her plane when she visiting other countries... Because he desperately needs the support from DPP to continue his congress seat in next year (2020), and his rival is much stronger than him, who is from KMT (pro-China) So he conflicted with his own party founder and left the party (time power) in this month. BTW, his mother is doing business in mainland China (earning a lot, and well, to support his career), ye, the country he claims to "hate" so much. All in all, he is very speculative...
Smuggling cigarettes was wrong .. but don’t ignore the point that it has been like that for over 20 years, it was not just her AND we don’t even know if she knows anything about it. AND she is trying to take the responsibility and find out the truth and punish them , yet you DPP haters oppose that as well for whatever reasons, as though nothing she has done is right. That’s why haters will always be haters, right?
@@miayle9545 You are totally right, I am not just DPP hater, but KMT hater. Both parties are corrupted and useless. TW today will become a much better place if both shit parties stopped meaningless fighting 20 years ago.
HCui yeah, both parties have its weaknesses and have let citizens disappointed. But this kind of conflicts also exist in Australia ( liberal and Labour Party ) and in the US... in our issue, which side to support for the president election, I have the same view as Freddy as he said “ he will support Tsai Yin Wen win the president election, as we can not trust KMT to protect our democracy and right. But within Taiwan, our internal issues, we should supervise DPP by elect smaller parties”. I will not support KMT as they don’t care about environmental issues, for example, all of the KMT county councillors in MiaoLi rejected to protect our endangered Leopard cat, instead they want to build more highways and destroy their habitat to build an ironic “environment saving” concrete park just for show.
@@miayle9545 well, just a simple reminder: two party fighting in US is completely different from what happening in Taiwan, they don't smear the winner at least.

Use it or lose it! It is your vote and if you do not use it then a dictator will, to the detriment of your society and community!
This guy would get my vote x10!
Hell yeah 👍

Republic of China has a claim on Tibetan and all of Mongolia LOL

This is what I call a leader of a young country.
You're what I call a feeble minded docile sheep.
Bubba Jones this man wants to part from communist China, unless you’re a socialist, I see this as an absolute win.
I respect Mr. Lim; I'm a big Chthonic fan and I also like his convictions and beliefs in the Taiwanese Legislative Yuan.

persevere young man, for the young shall inherit the earth...
Thank you ABC for covering this news , and spread the message on what most young people want :)
I support Freddy. his work is important to inspire young generation of Taiwan. Keep up the work, Freddy
This man is the definition of business in the front, party in the back. And he’s the only person who can pull off that hair.
I dont think this music would pass CCP standards of morality for sure.

If anyone is a role model, it's this guy. \m/
Not death metal but great story, I wish him success!
Ha! I said the same thing. Its Black metal
Seediq Bale was very clearly a black metal record. Everything else by them is imo more akin to Melodic/Blackened Death Metal. Especially Mirror of Retribution and Takasago Army are Death Metal records. I think it's not wrong to call them either a Black or a Death metal band^^
dude this is siiiick good shit
cool
😀from GERMANY
Playing for freedom
Cool, a new band to add to my play list 🤘
others to live independently in order to give us freedom thinking that we wait until we're taking this better
How can you be politician and rockstar at the same time? To be a politician you have to be good at lying but this won’t workout in a rock band.
Better a rock star . there are already assassins and psichopats free Hong Kong from China
taiwan is a country🤟🤘🤜
We need an American Freddy Lim
(No Donald Trump is not it
" MAYBE" china is pissed.
Maybe 2+2=4

this guy definitely not a hero, but a speculator
Knees to ccp ?

Chthonic is not a death metal band...

Melodic death metal, imo.
