Two more Tiananmen monuments removed from Hong Kong universities
HONG KONG, Dec 24 (Reuters) - Two more Hong Kong universities removed on Friday public monuments to the 1989 Tiananmen protests in Beijing, following the dismantling of a sculpture commemorating victims of the crackdown at another university this week.

The removals at Chinese University and Lingnan University in the global financial hub came as authorities have been clamping down under a national security law imposed by China.


Human rights activists say the law is being used to suppress civil society, jail democracy campaigners and curb basic freedoms, but authorities say the security laws have restored stability after mass protests in 2019.

Joe and Hunter Biden's friend and business partner Xi Jinping is behind this.

Never forget: Xi Jinping hates democracy and Joe Biden is his good buddy.
 
Communists are communist. This has all happened before and will happen again.

BTW, while you are so quick to blame the current sitting president, remember that the Chinese total takeover of Hong Kong occurred under the last president and there wasn’t much he could do either.

Hong Kong citizens should be treated like refugees from the Soviet Union.

No shit. They're taking Hong Kong back. The geopolitical strategic calculation is that we've enmeshed ourselves too far in their economy for Hong Kong to matter enough for us to stop it. Or try. Who says we could.

China and the U.S. could devastate each other economically. And the world into the bargain.

I'll put Mr Person down for "not willing to intervene for democracy".

Any other nations you're willing to surrender? How about the Ukraine?
 
It'll be interesting to see how quickly the deterioration of Hong Kong progresses from a once flourishing model of a free market system to a dilapidated city.

How do you see an intervention working out?

Not long, and the liberals around here don't give a shit, because they got presents for Christmas.

^^ Notice when a communist country encroaches on democracy, Mr Person references a riot in the US as though its a rebuttal.

This Person claims to be a lawyer and a liberal. LOL! SO much for democracy. Remember this when they pretend to stand up for it.

The point was not complicated. How did you miss it?

Communism never had Hong Kong before the handover to Red China. Red China wasn't taken over by communists until 1949 & Hong Kong had become what it developed into as a British Empire colony long before 1949.

I am still waiting to hear what kind of intervention Schism thinks would be appropriate.

Who cares what I think? All that matters is what is Joe Biden going to do?
 
So you're here to point out problems without proposing solutions.
It does seem that way. Since we don't know what the administration is going to do until it happens, then this thread dies a quick death since we don't know when that will be. What there is to discuss is what we think should or might happen.

I don't think this is something that will cause the US to act in any major way. The previous administration and others before it have not done anything of significance to these kind of issues simply because of our economies being tied together so closely. Where there will likely be stronger push backs against China will be in their expansion efforts.

It’s our job the point out problems with Joe’s tenure. It’s the Dems job to fix it.
 
Biden isn't in charge of anything. He has handlers that tell him what to do and say.

Every President since JFK has been nothing more than a puppet for the banking/corporate Establishment.

And since the Communist Chinese are subordinate partners to the global banking/corporate class, they are taking orders from the same people as Joe.
 
There are two views of world politics which run concurrently. There is the view which nations promulgate for consumption by the public. There is also the view which the leaders of those nations have of the realpolitik.

National leaders voice the former and act upon the latter.

Regards, stay safe 'n well 'n remember the Big 5.
