Solely divided into friends and enemies based on who is aligned with the US or not. He didn't even seem to know how to make the appropriate noises about human rights and change the topic, he just went full on in with regard to support for Israel

When asked about the use of Taiwanese tech by the Israeli military, he just talked about Israel-Taiwan tech cooperation. I suspect Lin is not only clueless about Gaza and how support for Israel damages perceptions of Taiwan, but his comments evidence a Manichaean worldview
