you know that extradition law that makes sure you can't kill someone on the mainland and then go hide in Hong Kong?

yeah they don't like that because Hong Kong is largely a place for criminals, and they're rioting over it

the only irony is how hypocritical the ones who wholeheartedly swallow western propaganda with blind devotion are.

Adding to that. They don't like it because the law makes it so China can take rights activists and other leaders for bogus trials and get rid of them.

you can support freedom yet still not side with protestors.

hk has a seething prejudice towards mainlanders, evident when they were so quick to dehumanize mainland citizens by calling them "locusts". "freedom" is just a front.

"freedom" is such a vague concept that I automatically assume it's being used as a front unless someone first elaborates considerably on what they mean by it

indeed.

i'm sure some people out there would consider the ability to marry children as "freedom" and would fight for that "right".

It starts with the UK's lease of Hong Kong ending in 1997 and they basically had no other choice than to give HK back to China.

China agreed to have a "one country two systems" policy for 50 years (until 2047) where Hong Kong was still part of China but basically got to govern itself. But recently China has seriously been encroaching on that. I think in the most recent election the candidates were all sympathetic to the mainland, and that isn't a coincidence.

So people started to protest and here we are. This was going to happen anyway, it's just happening sooner than we thought.

so why are all the other countries with comparable anti-treason laws not receiving comparable criticism for them?
