Yea, but the same is true for HK.

it also has to do with HK being the most dangereous to the stability of mainland china

Remember, after WWI China was divided into special interest zones by the winners. DESPITE the fact China didn;t even participate...

its hard to sell people on ideas if you dont speak your langauge

They were fucking dominated to the core by European imperialism

well china did get fucked and raped a bit at that time

A decade ago, maybe. The internet is a bigger threat than hongkong, culture wise.

Are China's OpFor aware? Undoubtedly. Are they acting on it? That's the question.

but again china mainland govt says you need us to bring order, control and prosperity, HK spits in the face of all of that

And b4 the industrial revolution, China was thw world's most powerful Empire

they were absolutely deleted by Euros

they don't remember that very fondly

china walled themselves off in their cities

its like western and eastern germany theres a reason you couldnt escape from the eastern side

fearing the degeneracy outside their empire

And the Chinese, as the Arabs, have a fucking long memory.

Except you can totally leave China

?

can they all?

ye

no

s'not very hard

normie citizens can leave china, but as far as the emperor and his court was concerned the outside didnt matter

there are people in "favoured areas" that can travel around

dude, you can totally travel as a Chink

but if you are in a unfavoured area then you are stuck there

you need a permit, yes

That's the biggest thing the East/Mid-East have on the West.. that holy shit long memory.

no

but it's not like the SU

where the gov isn;t gonna give one to u

unless extraordinary circumstances arise

and if you are from a specific place govt will never permit your travel

if ur an Uyghur Muslim no

Nah, I see tourist-Chinks all the time in the US as I fly around.

yes most of those are the rich bourgeoise

Mostly on the west coast, though.

the favoured elites

Oh, true.

Though just how amazed they are when an American does something nice for them strikes me as particularly notable.
