Because China does not participate in killing using wars over the last several decades, so they keep bringing up the Tiananmen Square incident, Mao's Great Leap Forward casualties and persecution of anti-Government dissidents. They may even bring up the COVID story in Wuhan.
Those dissidents from Hong Kong, fearing persecution, thought that the West loved them so much, throwing a carrot for them to flee to avoid persecution and enjoy a life of luxury. Now, those dissidents from Hong Kong are regretting their asylum seeking antic in the UK. Without decent jobs, without homes, high living costs and being threatened to be exiled to Rwanda, life is not what they had hoped for. Some had been talking about returning to Hong Kong, but those who still live comfortably in Hong Kong are telling them to stay away.
Why would those in Hong Kong want them back to create trouble when the time comes? Hong Kong is peacefully prospering now, leveraging on the Chinese mainland progress, with just another twenty years left to go before the Chinese Government takes over control of Hong Kong fully. Whether Hong Kong gets to retain its 'one country two systems' is left to be seen. But what the mainland Chinese are enjoying is not anything inferior to what Hong Kong people are enjoying, except being able to vote. The voting is after all still vetted by the Chinese Government to prevent subterfuge.
But closer to the end of the 50-year timeline for Hong Kong's capitalist Government to return fully under China's control, expect plenty of attempts to instigate and create uncertainties, chaos and fear in Hong Kong. I can bet this is going to happen. It is in the playbook of the USA and the West. They will never miss the opportunity to extract their pound of flesh from China.
