Isn't this supposed to be about Mei and Hong Kong?

With all this mess, I'm hyped for Blizzcon for all of the wrong reasons. But with Blizzard's CEO's non-apology and their ban on any interviews or cameras at all, something tells me they'll either have a massive lockdown on it, cancel it, or relocate it to China or something.

I am happy to see Mei as a symbol of resistance, as a way to spit both on the eyes of the Chinese government and on Activision-Blizzard's investment on that country. But until either Blizzard or the government put an end to being censored by money, more companies will keep doing it.

Money is a form of Hard Power. Though Mei can, again, be a form of pressing hard power onto Blizzard if the chinese government becomes fed up with her. It would force them to either pick China or pick the US. But not both.
