Luckily a lot of Oscar nominees have minimal financial backing from Chinese companies, but I see this changing in the future.

Hong Kongers have lost their freedoms.

Fershure but with the Oscars being the joke they've become, HKers ain't really missing much.

THIS is the truth Now: “*All media is strictly censored by China.*”

THIS is no longer true: “Semi-autonomous Hong Kong maintains more freedoms under a model subbed "One country, two systems".

It would not fit the doctrine that “the entire West are ‘divided, segregationists and racists” to showcase these awards shows. At least 6 persons of Asian decent are in contention for awards for their technical expertise and the myriad of subjects and stories depicted. These stories might inspire further dissension in the ‘new, ‘revised and harmonious’ Hong Kong”.

Great way to guarantee some supporting comments from the media savvy actors and actresses during the event. Bravo again CCP. Some good material floating around this year!
