China says detains employee of British consulate in Hong Kong

I really hope the next US President flexes so hard on China. I want to see that fascist state cower beneath their bullshit.
Yeah it will be much easier to disappear people if the law is passed. They are already kidnapping people from HK. The worst thing is that next of kin don't seem to get any information of such arrests until much later.
Even if he did protest why would he have any gear on him in Shen zhen?
Has that happened before😮
Or the Chinese government had tabs on every innocent but valuable person to them in Hong Kong and as soon as the first one came close enough they grabbed them.
Assholes forced Swedish citizen Gui Minhai who they have detained to "confess" "crimes" on video for protesting against the Chinese government by publishing books.

Fuck China.
Pieces of shit.
Short of America planting troops there's fuck-all we can do. It's like expecting Russia to dump Crimea.

Well if Trump keeps jacking up tariffs on Chinese goods, then the US will have nothing to lose by "standing up" to China. Truly setting the stage for a geopolitical suicide pact
the ultimate solution for every international problem: american interventionism. USA! USA! USA!

Fuck China.
Ah... I sometimes think that China copied a lot of Singapore's playbook (my country). We used to arrest and charge people who are suspected of being "threats to national security" without trial and one of the things they had to do was to do a televised confession. The last time we had that happened was in the 80s. Their censorship laws also remind me of how we used to do things, how we only started having movie and TV ratings in the 90s and essentially having films being censored before they could be shown or sold here. Just that everything is done in China on a larger scale and with 2019 technology.
People are stupid?
Do me a favorite and read some HK forums. People going to SZ are required to unlock their phones. If they are pro protest (yellow ribbon) they get detained. If you are blue ribbon nothing will happen to you.
Probably will be released in a few days, latest would be after oct 1. Because Beijing is only preparing 70 anniversary right now.
The guy himself is a nobody, but he has a special status of being a western country embassy employee.
Again, pay attention to what the UK government say, that's the only statement that matters.
Next US president won't have nearly as much leverage if Trump hadn't pulled his trade war bullshit.
BBC has more info,
Definitely sounds like he had protestor garb on his person.

We don't need to wait, various news sites have more info if you'd bother to look.
You threw out a frankly idiotic hypothetical, when you should have just waited to see what was really happening. The hell is wrong with you?
But this would mean you can't have any black clothes going into mainland? I mean, the protest garb is are just black t shirts.
My family kept joking that we would be arrested if we visit my brother in HK as we love wearing black, sometimes all at once without talking about it before hand.

He has a special status of being a British embassy employee, so China can parade him around and call his action foreign mingling of Chinese intarnal affair (even though he most likely did it himself). That was what I meant.
He is a nobody as in he is not actually a British spy and not a valuable asset of MI6. Clear?

How did you even come up with the conclusion that people think he's a spy for the British government.
One is aiming for (with current administration) another is full out fascist.
This is not even first page here in the uk, at least not on papers I checked. They barely talk about it
The Fuck?
The Fuck?
nah, im good over here.
i dont see an actual disagreement from you though.
I didn't feel it was needed to touch on the stupidity of your post. Obviously I disagree with it.
i dont disagree. just pointing out how weird of a suggestion to have the US "step in" to fight fascism in China as if we've got the solution when were struggling with an escalating problem over here.
if you really disagreed it would be easier to say what your actual problem with that statement is
but i respect the troll so dont let me stop ya brother
The US is still a superpower and could use the same leverage China does against other nations.
I also believe it would be in the intrest of Trump Admin to do so since it would play straight into their hand as "Strong man trump".
If that happens the US will be in for a rude awakening. the US is already meddling enough in China and coaxing the flames in this Hong Kong situation. It's definitely not something that will pan out in their favor
