Conveniently,
you ignored everything I wrote after the comma:
“just because of the comparatively open press in Hong Kong + ubiquity of cell phones”
Of course I remember Tienanmen. And I’m also aware of the Uyghur camps. It’s no surprise that a country as authoritarian as China will be violent. What’s surprising is that it’s being violent in an autonomous territory with many Western connections.
