It would be but communist do not deal well with dissent. They either slaughter those involved or they surrender and walk away. The Soviets routinely put down resistance in eastern Europe and only stopped when their system was collapsing. The chicoms have already shown they are quite willing to mass murder to retain power.
The problem with the chicoms this time around is there isn’t a Bush in the White House to ignore their crimes and reward them, but someone who views them, correctly so, as a threat and who will respond with further more harsh trade sanctions and demand the world follow suit. It could take a bit for their economy to collapse and then they would have to try and control a massive population in revolt possibly at the same time. Then they get dangerous and could try and start a war by invading Taiwan or with their long time nemesis Japan.
When it’s announced the White House is monitoring the situation I have to wonder what us going on behind the scenes to make sure no slaughter takes place.
Personally I cannot see anything like June 4 happening.
Xi Jinping is not that dumb to do that to Hong Kong.
Unfortunately this makes him more insidious and dangerous.
