Sounds like they know what's coming and are fighting it the only way they know how.  I wouldn't want to be sent to China for their justice system.

I think they should change the name. “Hong Kong” sounds pretty racist. Also what ^ he said.

My girls from Taiwan so we have really been following this. The situation is completely fucked and yea, they should have seen it coming. My girls even thinking of traveling back to Taiwan during election time just to vote against the pro China party thats been gaining traction. Sure hope that this doesn't develop into another Tiananmen square.

Does anyone think that china will back off from these protests? I feel that China wouldn't want to look weak by backing down, and Hong Kong might be doomed

Well it looks like Hong Kongs Airport is slipping into Chaos from all the protestors trying to "spread the Truth" about whats going on with the Chinese Government. And flights inbound are being cancelled. Did not see that coming.

Sounds like the Chinese government is trying to cover up whats going on, to keep people in the dark. Its Good vs Evil, Exposure vs Suppression. Democracy vs Communism. Who will Win the Fight?

Stay tuned....:popcorn:

But most leftists don't believe China is communist. That would ruin their narrative.

There are tons of private businesses in China. 60% of the country’s GDP is from non-government sources. So, you tell me is that really communism? They say they are communist but they certainly no longer rely on communism as an economic theory

I actually do business with the Chinese government because I purchase certain products that state owned factories produce. For a bunch of commies they sure know how capitalism works.

Budgeting must be a nightmare. I feel like the fact that trump can’t make up his mind on tariffs is harder than the tariffs themselves and probably does more damage because businesses are putting off making long term decisions.

My tooling costs got beat up by the tariffs. I’ve slipped through the cracks otherwise.

I try my best to revise estimates and purchase far enough out that at a minimum I know what my pricing will be for a few months, even if that means potentially losing my ass should the tariffs disappear (seems unlikely with retard in office).

My international business has totally disappeared though, and that hurts. I can’t compete outside of North America. Previously I regularly shipped to 14 countries.

The US government owns various means of production. Some also collect revenue from outside sources. Awfully commie of them.

What is "the truth"?  What exactly is going on in China?

My understanding is that the demonstrations began after a bill was proposed that would allow criminal suspects from Hong Kong to be transferred to mainland China for prosecution. But that bill got shelved after the demonstrations began.  So what exactly is going on?

LogicaL Chaos said:
And flights inbound are being cancelled. Did not see that coming.


That was the result of thousands of Hong Kong demonstrators trashing their own airport.

And what is going on?

No, it's Britain not being happy with their decision to give Hong Kong back to China and working with the US to stage another coup.

Democracy you say?  Hong Kong had 150 years under British rule, where they never had elections or a local government because they were ruled directly from London.


Let's learn from RussiaGate that important questions need to be asked and answered (or fill me in on what I'm missing if I'm reading the wrong news).


--------------------
I am in a minority on the shroomery, as I frequently defend the opposing side when they have a point about something or when my side make believes something about them.  I also attack my side if I think they're wrong.  People here get very confused by that and think it means I prefer the other side.
