I miss the durian pastry in HK
Slight misrepresentation again, at least where Maxim is concerned. What the founder’s daughter said at the UN basically amounted to the protesters not speaking for 7.5m Hongkongers, (Technically no one can) and implying she did. The boycott is a very logical response to the insult in a statement like that.
Extending it to anyone saying “exterminate the cockroaches!†seems fair enough. Boycotting anything related to China is not, but that is somewhat of a straw man on your part, although perhaps at the fringes of the movement I’m sure there are people who might think that way.
RE: Jardine and opium, from a comment on the Wang Xiangwei comment in the SCMP today: "Also, perhaps you could demonstrate sincerity by gathering up a few fentanyl producers and shooting them in a public square. Americans would love you for that. You know how you didn't like the Opium wars? Well fentanyl is like that to us... " Not a fan of the 'shoot them in a public square' Duterte-esque, but the analogy of (tacitly) allowing fentanyl leading to addiction and the opium distribution of earlier times is spot on.
Probably boycotted by all the pro-China, anti-American people.Original Post Deleted
