Precision Guided Missles.

Troops need to point a laser at the target before firing. They knew what they were doing.

To pretend that the Brits “leased” Hong Kong like it’s a mutual transaction and not because of colonization and the Opium wars is utterly idiotic.

The Brits had a choice when they funneled Opium into China in exchange of silver. They had a choice when they pointed a gun to the Chinese for taking the New Territories.

The Brits had a choice… is it a moral choice? No… but they had a choice.

The Brits taking Hong Kong from China is a huge stain in history. But to pretend that Brits are going to have any say after giving the territory back - also sounds ridiculously stupid.

China in the 1980’s: “if you give us back Hong Kong, we’ll take good care of it…”

UK: “ok sounds good. Here you go!”

Kinda sounds silly. Don’t ya think?
