This infuriates me. Intimidation and hostile attitude towards people protesting in a different country is an act of barbarianism and should be condemned internationally. In fact, the way to combat this is to further enrage, fearlessly protest the PRC patriotic machine and "poke" the hornet's nest so to speak. I've taken the pledge to never visit China and avoid Chinese goods because of shit like this. The PRC has a stronghold locally in China but their PR strategy is deeply flawed to get international cooperation, respect and dignity. The west has ideals that allow protesting of ridiculous ideas such as the KKK, sometimes with protection from the police, whilst try doing the same thing in China - last time they did that was in 1989 Tiananmen square which resulted in a massacre.
