Can anyone downvoting the parent shed light into why this comment deserved it? It's a valid tactical play (one that was used in 2014 during the umbrella revolution) and bringing it up definitely adds to the discussion. I'm not sure why it deserves downvotes. It's not in support of an authoritarian government and it's not like they're going to come here and find "brand new ideas" on what to do. As the article states, the Chinese government has huge incentives to not crack down with military action potentially incurring financial suicide. Why is China poising with its finger on the military tigger and why the downvotes? edit: umbrella revolution was 2014, not 15.
