Both sides also used Hong Kong for their own agenda.

China test water if faster remove democracy to see the reaction from everyone.
China tried to see if Taiwan can accept less democracy.

USA used Hong Kong as a bargaining chip. Although everyone knows China doesn't care if Hong Kong is dead or alive as it just affects 2% of its GDP.

China instead wants Taiwan. After sucked dry like Hong Kong, Taiwan will also be desserted.

The generation of Mao n Deng has long gone. Xi belongs to another generation. A lot of PRC's young ppl are educated in overseas universities n will bring further change n progress when their time comes.
PRC is no longer communist. It is a hybrid between socialism n capitalism.
If the west really wants a more open PRC, they should not shut their universities to these young ppl like Trump is doing. Trump is actually trying to contain China using trade war.
