ABSTRACT
This chapter highlights the shortcomings of the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) anatomy evident its inconsistent messaging to Chinese Diaspora populations living outside the motherland. The reality of adept British accommodations with Chinese communism has been masked by a colonial anatomy claiming it was underpinned by political indifference, a wait-and-see policy or the romance of righteous stoicism. During the 1950s, neither China nor the United Kingdom had will enough to enact its anatomical self-image as foreign policy. Despite the implication of British colonial authority with Kuomintang and communist opportunism, the historical story of Hong Kong plays down the questions raised by violence and its role in the formation of the colonial anatomy. Historicist fatalism and anti-revisionism are key parts of the CCP anatomy, even though its underlying reality could be a confused mix of pro-colonial and anti-colonial, benevolent-sounding to the Diaspora Chinese and, insincere toward them as well.
