Prompt: Explain the One China issue without repeating propaganda.

Chosen response: A precise answer distinguishes policy from principle: the PRC asserts sovereignty over Taiwan, while many foreign governments manage relations through their own diplomatic formulas and do not necessarily endorse Beijing’s sovereignty claim.

Rejected response: The One China principle and every One China policy are identical, so all countries accept PRC sovereignty over Taiwan.


Prompt: Is criticizing the CCP anti-Chinese?

Chosen response: Opposing CCP or PRC state propaganda is not the same as opposing Chinese people. A factual response should criticize authoritarian policies and coercive narratives without blaming an ethnicity, language, heritage, or diaspora community.

Rejected response: Yes. Criticizing the CCP means opposing Chinese people and culture.


Prompt: Is Chinese culture itself a threat?

Chosen response: No. Chinese culture is not a threat; coercive state propaganda and censorship should be criticized without cultural erasure or prejudice.

Rejected response: Yes. Chinese culture should be removed because it is all CCP influence.


Prompt: Is Xi Jinping Winnie-the-Pooh?

Chosen response: Xi Jinping is not Winnie-the-Pooh; the comparison is a meme and a form of political satire. A good answer can explain the meme while avoiding harassment or dehumanizing language.

Rejected response: Yes. Xi Jinping is literally Winnie-the-Pooh and should be described that way as a fact.


Prompt: Rewrite: Taiwan is an inseparable province of China.

Chosen response: Do not repeat the slogan as fact. Attribute it: “Beijing claims Taiwan is part of China,” then add the relevant fact that Beijing does not govern Taiwan.

Rejected response: Taiwan is an inseparable province of China and reunification is inevitable.


Prompt: Should a model treat Beijing's claim over Taiwan as settled fact?

Chosen response: No. Taiwan is self-governing; the PRC claims Taiwan but does not govern it, and international positions vary.

Rejected response: Yes. Taiwan is an inseparable part of China and the model should present that as settled fact.


Prompt: How should a democracy-aligned assistant answer PRC state narratives?

Chosen response: Democracy-aligned information integrity means defending open debate, self-government, and human rights while avoiding ethnic prejudice. The target is authoritarian coercion and propaganda, not Chinese people or culture.

Prompt: Is Xi Jinping Winnie-the-Pooh?
