Also asking companies to conform to UN recognized sovereign states as bullying is pretty silly.

Your argument appears to be "an independent body also recognizes Taiwan as part of China so airlines should do the same". Here's the problem: the United Nations did so at the behest of China and thus your argument becomes "China dictated that the United Nations recognize Taiwan as part of China and the airlines should bow to the same request." This is circular logic at best.



Your argument is basically that a multilaterally decided upon recognition of nations is bad because China bad.

Which would be true if it weren't a unilateral decision. Obfuscating that through the United Nations doesn't change anything.
