All right, so we will finish up with this video. So this is in the online version of the chapter. I don't know how relevant it is to what we're talking about, but let's give it a shot. The Hong Kong government says a bill passed by the US Senate supporting anti-government demonstrators is unnecessary and unwarranted.
Lawmakers unanimously passed the Hong Kong Human Rights and Democracy Act on Tuesday. It would require Washington to assess Hong Kong's status as a U.S. trading partner each year, as well as impose sanctions and other penalties against those who are undermining the city's autonomy.

The Senate also passed a bill banning exports of certain items for the Hong Kong police, including rubber bullets, stun guns and pepper spray.

I guess the Hong Kong umbrella movement could be... characterized as radical? Is it that we don't know?
Maybe that's an example that we don't know, that we would describe it as a radical political ideology to defend their autonomy versus Chinese? I don't have a ton of answers for that. I think we covered all of those questions.
