I shared a flat in college with two Asian guys, i refereed to them as Chinese once, one wasn't very happy. He declared he was from hong kong. Didn't mean anything to me at the time until he explained it to me. I don't think this was his first time as he used the example of a catholic in norn iron who identifies as Irish being called British.

yeah, I don't see the Hong Kong situation ending well. China is flexing its muscle during a time when everyone is CoVidistracted. Even then only the UK has any real leverage or moral ground to say/do much about the situation I don't see how anyone there couldn't see this coming, sadly.

I wonder how much western businesses dependence on china to produce stuff for them will impact any country saying anything too bad about the situation.

Yeah but trying to figure out if Trump is actually fucking up the US economy is tough to gauge for us civilians. You have "experts" on both sides saying the opposite from each other. Who do you believe?, both can translate the stats to what they want because we're in the dark.
