    Do you? https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/1950s_in_Hong_Kong

    It was invaded by England and made to be a British Colony for decades where slavery was openly legal, HK had no control over its fate whatsoever, and the UK enforced a strict class and social hierarchy where native peoples were massively oppressed compared to Brits.

    It’s actually genuinely disgusting you’re defending both imperialism, the genocide that the imperialism fueled, and violently hostile occupation of a foreign land.

      Well, TIL…

      • Jackie Chan is at least 187 years old
      • A treaty of rule and lease is “occupation”
      • The Hong Kong protests are because indoctrinated imperialists and the CCP is a force of liberation

      Or you’re an idiot that knows nothing of HK society, culture, governance, and life in the past century.

      Try talking to someone from there if you can’t be bothered learning. You’ll be very quickly corrected and possibly punched in the face.

          ^ That’s you btw. And it being Winnie isn’t coincidental. Kind of a triple on calling me retarded + your own contradicting link + the irony of even the CCP wishing you’d stfu at this point
