China Planning to "Reeducate" Hong Kongers.

[szechuan]

Even more reason to support Hong Kong Democracy.

"China plans to ramp up efforts to integrate Hong Kong with the mainland by strengthening patriotic education and retooling the city’s political and economic system, amid continuing protests against Beijing’s growing influence in the former British colony."

Yes, clearly being more authoritarian is the way to end protests against an authoritarian government. Brilliant!

[Machismo]

China's government is a shitty, shitty regime.

Stop doing business with them, starve their government into a democracy.

[Kokolums]

China is getting soft. Usually they just genocide groups of people they dislike.

Actually they are prepping to replace the US as the world's superpower.

Shall I repeat myself? They are a shitty, shitty regime.

It's weird how often people try to step in to defend authoritarianism.

If a group of rust belt republicans revolted in the US, I'm sure many who denounce China today would say we need to re-educate them to integrate them with the rest of the culture. Although a fair number would probably just call them traitors and want them shot.

Im not defending anything. The truth is China is MUCH bigger than the US and its gonna happen. They will replace the US as the worlds superpower.

No, it'd be more akin to one of our territories like Samoa or Puerto Rico deciding they wanted to be independent.

Oh dont worry, they are doing this to muslims. They force them to eat pork and other stuff and who knows how many died in those camps.
They cant use guns as everyone is watching them and it could be a excuse for sanctions or even war.

no because those territories are not rich. Hong Kong is a high value region. The rust belt is still a high value region.

Still not comparable. The Rust Belt is a full part of our country. Hong Kong is an autonomous region. Closest analog in the US is our territories.

All money that China launders goes via them, as their currency is wortless to the rest of the world and they need us dolars.

One shitty imperial power for another, the rest of the world won't notice.

One of the manifestations of the United States descent is its inability to keep its foreign policy consistent, how it cannot be trusted to keep commitments it has made - evil Winne the Pooh's plans for Hong Kong are China quadrupling down on the same strategy; Xi is telling everyone on Earth that they can trust China to act like Russia (as aggressive as possible in pursuit of its own immediate interests) and that agreements with the PRC aren't worth the ink they're written with.

That's really the only solution. The less stakes US businesses have in China the less they have an influence over US businesses.

That will cost them money, so that will never happen under the current system.

I think it should be done on a personal basis, stop buying products from China. It's why I have yet to update my desktop, and won't until they fix their shit.

I honestly cannot remember the last time I bought something from China.

Based China. I wish we could do this stuff here in the US to the anti trump people.
