Well, I looked up Taiwan protest and the 4 I looked at were all allegedly Taiwanese protesting against their own independence.... (For context only 10% of Taiwanese support unification with China per a google search)

Would love somebody who has an account (and can translate) to do a sanity check here.

A "protest" is implicitly a demonstration by people who are unsatisfied with the status quo. As far as Taiwanese are concerned, Taiwan is already independent, so a protest to support its independence would be a bit redundant - and if there were one, it'd probably be referred to as a parade or a rally, not a protest.
