CCP is terrible at PR like you can do this or you can tell a Peaceful Rise story where everyone you rule with an iron fist likes you but really not both at the same time https://www.washingtonpost.com/world/asia_pacific/china-signals-plan-to-take-full-control-of-hong-kong-realigning-citys-status/2020/05/21/2c3850ee-9b48-11ea-ad79-eef7cd734641_story.html …

Any thoughts on how HK could even respond? I hate the narrative shifting right now against Chinese in the US but I can't think of a better solution than a full war. Especially with Belt and Road + recession causing lots of consolidation of property into chinese companies

I feel awful for Hong Kong and I think they're just screwed. No one is going to intervene, the cavalry is not coming. I think their options are "submit quietly" or "die gloriously" and sitting across an ocean I wouldn't presume to tell them which course to take.
