Two+ cents on trump 0.2 from a European Hongkonger who voted in 
HK's potemkin elections in 2019:
After the city-wide pro-democracy protests erupted in June 2019 against ☭
CCP's relentless erosion of the autonomy and civil rights it had "promised"(*) to Hong Kong in the 1984 handover treaty with the 
United Kingdom, millions of people had peacefully marched for their civil rights for months when in November 2019 Hong Kong held its last semi-open local elections.
In the District Council elections of 2019, with many prominent democracts already banned from standing or already jailed, the pro-democracy camp still won majority popular vote in.... every single one of the 18 districts.
Every. Single. One. 
️
Despite the CCP having funneled billions into its countless front organizations over the decades (even under the British rule before 1997) and all local billionaires ("tycoons") backing the CCP, except one: the publisher of the only remaining pro-democracy paper the Apple Daily tabloid Jimmy Lai. (He's since been languishing in a 19th century style gaol exposed to the elements for years now and has already gotten frail...)
Unlike the American public that didn't make a stand against deranged and violent autocracy — not once but *twice* now — Hongkongers used every peaceful means to stand up for their rights, only to be crushed by one of the key despots threatening a repressive global redivision of power: The Chinese Communist Party under its helmsman cum fuhrer Xi Jinping.
A globally known young democracy activist Joshua Wong later tried to enter the local US consulate to seek political asylum... The trump 0.1 admin just turned him down. He's also been isolated in a 19th century gaol for years now, and will remain incarcerated indefinitely...

️ With the USA now in the camp of the collaborating and horsetrading 19th century style imperialists and despots, the world is in for its most dangerous years since the global warfare of the WWII. 
With the US-fucking-A on the side of the despots! So, thanks again to all Americans who either supported this insanity or didn't bother lifting a finger when they had the chance... to vote... in November. Perhaps one last time like Hongkongers did in November 2019. 
Also, fuck everyone in the Free World who still refuses to see the global war against democratic values and normalizes, appeases or collaborates with the enemies of the long-forgotten United Nations' ideals of universal #humanrights.
Thanks for reading.
(*) The CCP *never* honours any of its treaties if it benefits from breaching or breaking them. It can simply rewrite its official history and those treaties out of it; see CCP's "17-Point Agreement" which it imposed on the Tibetan government after PLA invaded in 1950. Likewise the 1984 treay with the UK was, after CCP took over in 1997, ridiculed simply as a "historical document", not a treaty. ️
