What is it to be kept apart? Societies of our planet are interconnected today and so are our economies, financial trade or communications. People from the "human world" can buy varieties of books and they can criticize what their superiors do/say. Moreover, those people (and their leaders) accept all kinds of opinions and people (even from the not so human world). This is what the modern society is about on Earth. Otherwise, we'd be back to feudal system which the Chinese communists are attempting to revive while preaching Marxism. So, are people supposed to be schooled freely in one part while ill-educated in the other part of the world?

When we see people massacred in one part of the world, we don't want to look away; however, when we observe scores of working citizens socially, intellectually and physically abused to such extent that they are basically exterminated, we are not to talk about it. Not noticing this sort of cultural and social genocide may, and most likely will, enhance a power of the leadership that selling Marxism has a hidden agenda.

How places around the world would look like without being embraced is hard to tell today as we have stepped on lands of indigenous people in NZ, Australia, the US or Canada. Moreover, what EU would be like today without all the colorful inhabitants is impossible to guess, since many moons ago migrants invaded it. Mixing this up with what is happening in China is, in my opinion, worth mentioning here, as the Middle Kingdom is seemingly isolating itself from the rest of our planet in a few ways.

The bottom line is that we all owe the knowledge to each other and that comes through the education whether it is in schools or book shops. We'd never know about Marx, had his voice been eradicated the way people's views in China are. Controlling what the society ought to read or not to such an extent as the mainland authorities do is reprehensible; kidnapping the ones who offer knowledge is a crime to pay attention to.

Had HK not been taken by Brits before, there wouldn't have been anything to decide on today. All HK citizens would have been of the same opinion as mainlanders and the HK communist party would have been the only party running the city.

Logically, this is true to some extent. However, even then it doesn't make things the Brits did in the 19th century any better.

Again - keep these two things apart and don't mix them up!
