I'm worried if I actually answer this I'm going to get replies like "Haha yeah they seem so nice right? Anyway here's a video of them kicking a cat while bragging about all the assaults they've gotten away with"
Anyway John Cena seems so genuinely kind I'd be crushed to find out otherwise. Weird Al, too, always seems like he's just a really friendly weirdo trying to bring joy to everyone
John Cena claimed Taiwan was a country, then had to make an apology video - in Chinese - for referring to Taiwan as an independent nation. I hope he was just forced to say that under contract, but it's kind of shitty he had to apologize to China. I'd respect him more if he stuck to his guns and stood up for Taiwan.
Not to be apologetic for John Cena, but it is technically correct that Taiwan is not an independent nation. I'm not going into too much details but I think the broader implication for not supporting Taiwan at any capacity is that Mainland Communist China's dominance in Asia will get more credence, and signaling that the world will not support a democracy to sustain their way of life.
