    That’s not an honest comparison.

    You have chosen the police-reported number of protesters (338 K) instead of 2 M reported by other sources.

    You have also made a false comparison between Hong Kong (~10 M people) and the entire population of China. I recommend to use percentages. Up to 20% of the local population showed up to protest. More were dissatisfied.

    What number of Chinese would show up to protest if a hot topic would appear and the regime would seem weak for a moment, is unknown.
