China is doing nothing wrong by crushing the Hong Kong protests

If there were groups of violent Puerto Ricans or Hawaiians trying to forcefully separate from the United States who were also attacking cops and military personnel you'd expect an equally violent government reaction against said separatists. The same rule applies to China and Hong Kong.
 
The Chinese response to the Hong Kong insurrectionists is fairly measured. It is no Tienanmen Square Incident. Only local HK police involved, the PLA garrison stays in barracks. No tanks in the streets, no live ammo, no forced disappearances of dissidents.

It's even a softer response than that which the Uyghurs are treated to. No reeducation camps, no bans on public assembly, no mandatory DNA/biometric data collection.

I smell the hand of L'Albion Perfide in all this unrest. The Hong Kong people should be rioting over the cost of living and the fat cat real estate developers who are pricing them out of affordable housing.
 
Your example doesn't work, both of those places are filled with useless government resource sucking bums. I'd just let the island fuckers separate without a fight. Let them die of alcohol poisoning and drug abuse and within a few generations come back to the empty islands and conquer them with nobody caring.
 
Except China isn't crushing anything or anyone. Hong Kong police have failed to even do their jobs on parity with police in countries such as the US, Spain or the UK against violent delinquent protesters.

The west is sick. It sends itself into a frenzy with its own lies and propaganda.

Hong Kong is a literal middle man leech, buying cheap on the mainland and selling high abroad. It can't even feed, power or water itself.

I think part of this temper tantrum protest is a manifestation of their frustration at being sidelined and overshadowed by Shenzhen across the water. In 1997, Hong Kong was 18% of China's GDP, and now it's only like 2% of China's GDP. They aren't special or valuable any more, and they are probably angry about their irrelevance.

From watching some various coverage, the topic of real estate seems very close to central to the current unrest.

The Hong Kong protest is a real power move against the Chinese Communist Party. If they crush them they'll be hit by sanctions and capital flight and if they don't then they risk the same sort of protests in China.

Loads of CCP apparatchiks have their money in HK too, to safeguard it from arbitrary confiscation by their superiors.

I hope the CCP loses and loses badly, to be honest. If they crush Hong Kong then Taiwan and Japan are next.

Also, OP is bait.

You mean the ones who are in bed with the PRC?

Why do you think they are rioting?
