This is wishful thinking, the mainland Moloch will devour and assimilate any traces of liberal values in Hong Kong. It's a tiny morsel by Chinese standards, they've assimilated much more.
- xwolfi 7y agoHeh don't be so sure. At least we're trying, not armchair losing before even fighting. China is large, vastly uninformed and HK is very far from liberal values by western standards. But heh we can show them small improvements, like how to change their over protective labor law encouraging slacking at work.
- s_Hogg 7y agoIncorporating HK isn't going well so far though, is it? The future isn't written. A few weeks ago, it was inconceivable that the extradition bill will be withdrawn. I'm not saying things will turn out one way or another, only that it feels misguided to think anything about this situation is a foregone conclusion.
- ur-whale 7y agoAgreed. And if there ever was a chance for HK to be free, it all disappeared in a sudden pop when Winnie the pooh took over and made himself leader for life.
