“We had to destroy the village in order to save it” | a metaphor for Hong Kong

“We had to destroy the village in order to save it”: The infamous phrase uttered by an American lieutenant in the Vietnam war, as his troops razed the village. Flamethrowers.

So too for Hong Kong. U.S. senators think they’re punishing China for the National Security Law, by removing actual, real, ways in which we’re independent, operating the policy of “One Country, Two Systems”.  But they’re harming us. Harming Hong Kong. In the name, apparently, of “saving” us. Go save somewhere else, Senators! 

Good on Andrew Lam for calling them out. We don’t need their flamethrowers, flaming us, while masquerading as saviours.

Three words:

WTF?!
