Tell ya what, let your Country be taken over and permanently annexed by the Chinese Communist Party - without your consent, and let’s see if it doesn’t change a damned thing as you say for you and your fellow Countrymen. You are tone deaf and naive. Things are changing radically for Hong Kong. Right now. At this moment. All of the wonderful qualities that made Hong Kong one of the most open and liberated bastions of capitalism and an international trading powerhouse and banking center are in the process of being snuffed out by the Chinese Communist Party. You are seriously mistaken. What happens to Hong Kong’s complex and developed banking empire when they no longer have unrestricted access to unlimited US Dollars?
Finally see some sane comments. I believe China is working its way and will eventually be there. However, I seriously doubt if the western world really wants China to be there. who would do the cheap labor work after all?
"Leave China alone" is exactly what the CCP wants because they are going against the Rules-based International Order. Whatever happened to the Hague decree on China's claim to the South China Sea? While the world continues to fail in enforcement, China will keep advancing its position. This is straight out of Sun Tzu. The world is paralyzed by greed, its greatest weakness, and the CCP will continue to exploit this. Politicians from every nation are "selling out". When the CCP starts playing aggressive, it means you are Done.
