Seriously, don't try to fool people with that tale.
I doubt you have even been to Hong Kong recently. It sounds as if you are 20 years behind the times. Freedom in Hong Kong serves the financial interests of China. There are street protests that are unregulated. Internet is unfiltered.
Communism has its days numbered in the mainland. Christianity is growing like wildfire - over 130 million and spreading.
In any case, my job isn’t to teach you. I can open doors for you to inform yourself, but you have to walk through them. Or not, as you wish. Better yet, hop on a plane and experience what is occurring yourself. I won’t have to say a word.
Still, I wish you blessings.
