Carrie Lam’s Departure Signals a Further Crackdown in Hong Kong

Under her tenure, Lam introduced an Extradition Bill that would have allowed Hong Kongers to be extradited to mainland China, banned the wearing of face masks, ushered in film censorship laws, disbanded student unions, trade unions, and independent media, introduced national security education, and dutifully implemented the draconian National Security Law, which has seen the mass arrest of pro-democracy activists, lawmakers, and journalists.
I, being poor, have only my dreams; I have spread my dreams under your feet; Tread softly because you tread on my dreams.

That's a lot of heavy legislation to repress a society that does not even get to vote for leaders.
