    The Hong Kong protests have suggested that Beijing still knows hard power much better than soft. Instead of offering a competing narrative of a Hong Kong that could prosper under Chinese rule, it has instead made itself look like a bully.

        They still think dangling a couple of pandas is soft power.

        Ccp rulers think they can stay feudalists who never had to listen to it’s people for as long as got money, HK taught them a lesson, up to them to see it and learn it though 😹

        There is no such evidence of China's soft power. Nothing soft in authoritarian governments.

        I consider credibility the foundation of any soft power, which the CCP has none.

        I'd say the wu mao are out in force here...except most mainlanders believe the crap they are fed, sadly. Or they are blinded to the truth by their chauvinism.

        Well, China does have a recent history of rolling tanks to suppress opposition.

        To CCP, it’s all about GDP and the absolute control of its citizens.
