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

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 . The Chinese will likely take Taiwan within the next four years, too.
Nothing stopping them but themselves.
