The difference is the Hong Kong citizens weren’t installed in all levels of local, state, and federal position within the government.
The amount of buildings getting destroyed and groups popping up all over America from California to New York will be way too big of a theatre for a federal government as deeply incompetent and corrupt as this one is, from stopping them in any meaningful way.
