That would depend on what kind of immigrants you're talking about. If it's the lower-skilled factory worker, it wouldn't make sense - those factory jobs are/have been shipped out of Taiwan to China, why would Chinese workers leave China to come to Taiwan for the jobs that are in China?

can you really differentiate between taiwanese and mainland chinese anymore? Because they're both technically Chinese

Actually, yes. Chinese ethnicity =/= Chinese nationality, or are you going to say that Singaporeans are also Chinese?

Yea, it has absolutely nothing to do with the White Terror, the oppression of the general population by the KMT
AFTER the Japanese left, or the fighting and constant threat from PRC since then
Blaming the anti-China sentiment on Japan is like blaming John Kennedy for the NSA wiretap program.

many folks I know had to learn the hard way that democracy is not the end-all be all of socio-political systems after being taught that all their lives.

That really doesn't mean much coming from someone pushing for communism/authoritarian dictatorship.
