i don't know about that however what they're doing right now with this and the uyghurs is clearly one of the worst human rights violations period

just another day in the nightmarish and horrific regime, but the communist chinese party know best

violence and coercion by authoritarians never ends well

Who's president right now, and what's he been doing for the past couple of months?

eta: but I agree the options are limited, just more limited when you are a screwup with not experienced staff

Crackdown: 53 Dissidents Arrested in Hong Kong



China accused the activists and former legislators of "subverting state power."


The arrests are part of Beijing's attempt to crush dissent in Hong Kong, which had long been semi-autonomous under China's "one country, two systems" policy. When a vague national security law was imposed in June, many Hongkongers feared it would give China cover to undermine the political freedoms they had long enjoyed. Since then, there have been steady, gradual encroachments: Public universities have culled dissident faculty members, police have arrested the pro-democracy media entrepreneur Jimmy Lai, and protesters who attempted to flee by boat to Taiwan have been sentenced to prison. This latest crackdown sends an even bigger message.
