Don’t be surprised if the Chinese government is staging this.
They would love to have to crack down.
Hong Kong protestors a few weeks ago were singing this: https://youtu.be/LGlumz1QMUw
These people love America more than half of America. Let that sink in.
Love seeing the flag. Worried that it will turn out like Teniman (sp) Square.
big and loud Amen
Last time that was tried in China hundreds died.
This is really heart-warming to see, but I fear for Hong Kong and the protesters. Xi will take this personal and the empire will strike back.
It very well might. Today’s Chinese have never known freedom, they admit the government is just too strong for them to do anything about it.
Those in Hong Kong have known freedom. If the Chinese government tries to increase their grip they’re only going to exacerbate the problem.
Yes, this may well end up bloody. If the Chinese are smart they’ll back off, otherwise this might end very badly for the Chinese government too.
MHKGA!
Agreed all around.
An interesting observation.
The cure for internal strife is war with an external foe. Then, all dissension is unpatriotic and treasonous.
My sister works in HK for an international bank and I go there every year. God knows how many conversations I had there with the locals and most I spoke with have a deep hatred for China..
I took a ferry from Hong Kong into mainland China several years ago. Waiting on a ride to show up after getting off the ferry a Chinese man walked up and asked if I was an American. When I answered yes he asked if I liked Obama?. When I answered not particularly (not sure where this was headed and it was almost dark) He said “Obama weak man! Obama pu—y! So...there you have it from a simple Chinese man on the street.
Beijing is currently mulling over sending the PLA in to quell the uprising - and they will when Xi Jinping's loss of face becomes too great. No prisoners, no survivors, no bodies - flush them down the sewers like last time.
Todays Chinese have never known freedom
No Mainland Chinese has ever known freedom from the First Emperor to today.
Thank you for this thread. +1
Back in 2013, my sis treated us to dinner at this place and the cashier asked us about obama, and we politely told her in the vein “we dont think about it” and she said “why you vote for n*gga?” (true story)
