      I mean, they did mostly leave it alone. The only real changes I’m aware of is they extended their national security apparatus to Hong Kong as part of one country two systems. Is that what you’re referring to or am I missing something?

          Honestly? I wouldn’t trust a thing written by the BBC on this topic. Britain occupied Hong Kong for how long? Thatcher wanted to keep it going. They made tons of changes to create unrest and separatist movements.

          The bill was signed into law by the majority of the Hong Kong government. China didn’t impose it in Hong Kong, Hong Kong adopted it.

          The “widespread” condemnation came from the colonizers and dominators of China. Hardly a bunch for whom I give a shit about their opinions.
