So muddy already lol. You weren’t kidding

HK was conquered by the British in the 1800s, returned in 1997 and the mainland promised at minimum 50 years of "one country, two systems".

This same model exists in the former Portuguese colony of Macau, which has also been returned, and shit never happens there.

It's also been proposed for Taiwan reunification, except recently the mainland has even suggested that Taiwan keeps their military. Which would end up really just being the exact same same situation they're already in.

Some key points to understand though are that in HK there isn't censorship. You can watch porn, go on Facebook, YouTube, etc. All of that is blocked in the mainland. You can get on Facebook with a VPN and it's no big deal, but you can go to jail for pornography.

They have elections, a legislative council mostly elected by districts, part of it elected by business sectors. The only limitation the mainland puts on it, is no independence.

The early founder of the HK independence movement is actually a commie himself, they call him "long hair"

That’s actually a wild history. I only learned it was two systems after the HK protests started. Our education system is broken

You can't own a gun in HK. You *can* in the mainland, or more accurately, "can". It's about as common as owning them in Britain.

Before 97, the entire HK government was appointed by the Queen's Governor-General. HK Police existed at the time, with a lot of white people in it too. There's about 100 white HKPF who joined before they stopped taking foreigners in 94.

So in short, the whole situation's fucked and all there is to do is grab some snacks and watch the show?

Used to be a triad owned city though, 1/6 of HKers were in gangs. HKPF on orders from UK often released gang leaders and shit. Most of those old crazy ass kung fu movies with the loud snaps and noises etc were made by triad studios

I personally believe Bruce Lee was murdered by the triads for teaching martial arts to white people

Legislative council has several political parties. Oddly enough it tends to be the further right wing parties are more pro-Beijing and the left wing parties lean toward independence. But as a political candidate they can't make an open call for independence or they'll be suspended from the election.

I’m going to read more into this. It’s crazy how much I didn’t know. Felt like a Mandela effect situation for me

Shame we haven't done to martial arts what we did when we yoinked gunpowder: Make it 1000X more awesome and far beyond what it was initially imagined it could do.

I guess you don't bring a fist to a gun fight

We just combined martial arts

Remember a lot of that stuff developed in the old days because the emperors etc wouldn't let people own weapons

true

So a lot of traditional martial arts weapons are actually farm tools

I mean you wouldn't separate an old man from his walking stick<:smugpepe:445634631950139403>

Hoes Mad Fu

with actual gardening hoes

That was in Japan. That’s how many ancient weapons were created

Modified tools and armour

I've seen them niggas out in the fields with medieval handmade garden hoes busting their ass

The head of those things is about 10x bigger than the one you buy at Home Depot

One good whack to the grape with that and you're done

So anyway HK doesn't have their own army, there is a PLA garrison there which is considered a somewhat higher tier unit

Unfortunately thanks to kike news network it's hard to really find anything neutral or from the other perspective

You could try CGTN, my wife worked there once, but keeping in mind it belongs to the mainland government and Chinese people tend to be extremely nationalistic

I like them but there's one guy there, Yang Rui, who is a straight up fuckin commie and hates the US

Awhile back there was a video of the protestors singing hymns. Only like 5% of HK is Christian.

Sounds a lot like some (((foreign influences)))

As for the cops they live in HK and are from there. You don't *have* to be a citizen but you have to speak both Cantonese and English fluently (most mainlanders do not speak Cantonese), and hold HK resident permit for seven years. Among other requirements.

So it's not like it's a bunch of mainlanders they're fighting anyway, it's their own people. Not to mention the civilians they have frequently attacked, all the shit they've torn up, roads blocked etc

IED found at Polytechnic

Protestors set a 79 year old man on fire

Imagine being disgusting enough to support the Chinese government. smh

Imagine being a retard taking everything the media says about any maidan these days.
