Hong Kong's biggest pro-democracy party moves to disband as freedoms dwindle

I'm guessing pro "democracy" just means pro-liberalism and pro-US in this case?

I would suppose it's pro independence / sovereignty, but that's generally a no-no topic

as freedoms dwindle

More like, as US funding dwindles.

More like "as USAid funding dwindle"

Yes, USAid dried up FFS. It was nothing about democracy but again, regime change or an attempt at that scenario.

I now feel what all those poor Hong Kongers felt a few years back. Seeing this just makes me feel so damn hopeless.

Oh brother 🙄
