Carrie the Collaborator – Comparativist
Apart from the inept metaphor of a Japanese invasion, it's interesting because the blog post only uses the second defnition of the word collaborate and ignores the primary definition, which is to work together toward a mutual goal.
I did not write this. But, I think the author is trying to say Carrie is trying to make the best of a shitty situation irrespective of the labels used.
If HK is in a shitty situation or not is arguable, but there is a large segment of HK who think it is. I think this is arguing that she is in fact not pro beijing(as many think), but in fact she is just trying to do the best of a bad situation.
