    Turns out every province of China is the same.

    So wait, people who are enemies of the government of China won't get a fair trial in the one-party dictatorship of China?

    HK Judges keep dishing judgements that the chief executive John Lee doesn't like. The little bitch that he is, he's crying to motherland to change the law so defendant can't hire foreign nationals for defense.

    Then again, there are many parallels of this in AB.

    Very similar. HK should separate.

    No, it would like ab if HK decided to hold elections to elect their own people despite China itself being clearly undemocratic.

    HK also does not have adequate military to break away from China. Nor did it have it to break away from Britain.

    I mean sure, you can try to make it as a financial powerhouse but it is always a risk if you don't have at least a minimum of muscle. Otherwise its just all for the taking by Somali pirates. Billionaire with no bodyguard isn't a billionaire for very long.

    This is why China will crush the US economically in the next 10 years.

    AFRICA. It had half the population of Europe after ww2. Now it is double. It's the last continent to be developed, and China is kicking ass, while the US postures to stop them.

    This is a perfect example as to what's going on.

    Vancouver is pretty much little SE Asia anyway. They might as well have their own police, health and gov policies. Something our dear leader can admire and mimic for the rest of Canada.

    It's a very sustainable area. Affordable housing, low crime, good mental health.

    There have been lots of reports of restrictions lifting in China after the protests of the last month.
    I have been in meetings with co-workers who are in China right now. They say as of last week, the majority of "local" restrictions have been lifted. No testing, no quarantine. That has only been in place for a very short time, but they are already seeing a large number of illnesses. At one of our partner shops, there are about 100 workers, and 10 are out sick today. That is "very high" in their opinion. But they are very encouraged that travel internally will be much easier.

    And here I thought it took two weeks or something to get symptoms.

    I think when speaking on an insecure line a person would only be able to discuss the fact that loosening restrictions leads to symptoms. Not any large antigovernmental gatherings prior to that, comrade. Those did not happen for 2 weeks, and not on many places, certainly.

    Cousin just got quarantined in Macau and has been bitching on Instagram non-stop. Day 3 and still tested negative and finally switched to a quarantine hotel that is less of a prison. I bet he's going to be an organ donor soon.

    Are organ donors are good for your families social credit? Asking for a co-worker.

    Most of the world is going through a RSV and Flu outbreak.

    A friend kid is on a ventilator with covid.

    We are too cavalier with our selfishness.

    But now the scientists/doctors said RSV is due to locking down the kids for too long and they are now too weak to deal with stuff. So end of the day, nobody knows.

    And China at least listen to protestors and easing, at least on surface.
