Ah then, no, they consider themselves Chinese. That’s the entire point. Specifically they are both Zhōnghuá and exceedingly few people contest that (hence the referendum trying to rename them from Chinese Taipei failing MISERABLY).
Some polls, especially from CIA-Backed NED Organizations show ridiculous support, but actual democracy in Chinese Taipei shows little to no support for a ‘Taiwan’ identity. Especially given THEY LITERALLY MASSACRED THE TAIWANESE PEOPLE AND STOLE THEIR LAND.
Lol, what are you even talking about? Since 20 years the opinion polls are clear: The majority of the people living in Taiwan consider themselves Taiwanese. There is a somewhat large minority that considers themselves both Taiwanese and Chinese, but when asked to choose between the two the people of Taiwan overwhelmingly (like 90%) prefer to call themselves Taiwanese.
Edit: but it looks like I am replying to a fresh Tankie sockpuppet account, so I guess no need to bother 🤦
No, that is only the official line due to history and political pressure from China.
See: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Opinion_polling_on_Taiwanese_identity
You’re referring to native Taiwanese, which the current inhabitants of Taiwan largely wiped out during their most recent colonization attempt
I am referring to the opinion of the current inhabitants of Taiwan as expressed in opinion polls.

The 2018 referendum disagrees with your mysteriously sourced polls
People can have one opinion and still prefer to vote against it given the likely consequence of the imperialist neighbor attacking them 🤷
There really isn’t a definition of Imperialism that fits China. It does explicitly fit Taiwan, given ROC’s history.
Threatening to attack and occupy their self-ruled neighbors is pretty much the textbook definition of imperialist 🤦
