That's just the Gusano effect, frankly. Why would someone who supports the ML regime move to China's self-nominated existential enemy, after all?
No, those who oppose just come over here and Yeonmi Park themselves all over the place. You see it in ever single "Castro took my grandfather's plantation" wannabe-settler who conveniently leaves out that el viejo's plantation was staffed by slaves; I expect exactly the same out of Chinese expatriate capitalists afraid they're next (when there's actually still hella billionaires that haven't been milled yet).
