Is Hong Kong not part of China.. and don’t they (China) have the right to run their country as they wish? That 100 year lease ran out.. and Hong Kong reverted back to Chinese control.. China was kind to allow a transition period but sooner of later that too has to stop.
Ah, a test population for the Repuslican ideal America. Give ‘em time boys, just give’ em some time. It’ll all be just honky (a better spelling in this case than “hunky” – ain’t too many hunky Repuslicans) dory.
If the AAPT (All Aryan Party of Trump formerly known as the GOP) has its way, we’ll be just like China. Hasn’t our President said he has “total authority?” Hasn’t our President called a free press an “enemy of the people?” I am not defending China’s totalitarian regime. I’m merely pointing out that the United States is blithely headed in the same direction. And “the base” is cheering that process along.

The evil Chinese government plotting to keep their citizens alive. I’m glad the good ol’ American government doesn’t stoop that low!

And our ☠resident is more concerned about Huawei being punished for alleged misdeeds … than democracy being destroyed in Hong Kong.

There was an idea that China let the covid spread to stop the HK protests.

It was inevitable. The only surprise is that China honored the agreement this long.

I’ve been expecting this all along. Were I living in Hong Kong back in ’97 I would have sold out and got out.
