I'd guess the virus is another CIA tactic in the trade war ongoing in China. The protests were another tactic.

While I agree that if the CIA were so inclined they could agitate for more protests, but the conditions were set up by the very nature of China's agreement with Britain. By allowing capitalism in Hong Kong for so long it proved beyond any reasonable doubt that it is an incalculably better way to live. Of course the people are going to protest having that taken away.

I agree with you. I think the way the CIA operates is that it finds existing riffs within other countries to exploit, and then funds the side that opposes the state they want to fight.

If they want to take down a country, they fund any existing rebel factions.
