Not really what I meant no. I meant it’s a shame that the government crushed and diminished any free thought. Follow the governments exact desires or be stomped out. It doesn’t exactly sound very free to me. The footage coming out from the protests years ago were disgraceful. No government should treat people like that.
If the remaining people are happy under those conditions, then by all means they can have at it. I just think it was wrong for the government to force Hong Kong to be something it wasn’t
According to the article around 180000 left which is around 2.5% of the population of Hong Kong 7.2 million. There basically wasn’t that many people who emigrated to cause a shift in perception.
As many have suspected it was the issue of cost of living that caused the protest. Now with easy access to more affordable goods & services across the border, the problem mostly fixed itself. If you relied on outside media narratives convincing you otherwise, you would come to the wrong conclusion.
