Are the interests of the Hong Kong rich more closely aligned with the CCP? (As for the mainland rich, I agree with you... for the moment.)

Yes, I specifically meant the HK rich. They have lots of business interests outside of HK and inside China, so it isn’t very surprising that they are tied to the party at the hip. The same is actually true for Taiwan (rich Taiwanese are pro China even if working class Taiwanese are not).
