No that was just Nili being Nili and trying to sound edgy, joking about them being able to say "Taiwan", putting Yo unfairly on the spot just to signal his own opposition to Chinese politics.
Imagine having Vinch sitting there and Nili making a joke mentioning Ukraine...
I don't understand why he would put a player who never wanted to get involved in a political conversation and during an AoE LAN event in such an awkward position. I didn't mind his previous political comment /joke during The Grand Melee since that was just him from the caster position and speaking to and for himself, but throwing a player a comment about something that is close to them and not to him was totally disrespecful.
I totally get that it’s just NilI‘s taste of humor. What I mean is that I feel like this post gave him the idea. For example, even if he wanna say something political to Yo, he could have chosen other topics as well like Xinjiang, Tibet, etc. I think he have read this post and thus the question
