Obviously China’s meddling with academic discourse is troubling, but what universities accept busts for random political activists? I don’t think I’ve ever seen any bust in universities that weren’t of people of great importance to the university itself.
I also completely get universities not wanting to deal with the anger and outrage of nationalist Chinese expats. They can get real angry when you go against Chinese propaganda, probably a result of many years of brainwashing by the Chinese government in their youth. It just takes one weirdo to deface a statue and suddenly you’re in the middle of a massive controversy and need to either file charges (and deal with angry Chinese people) or not (and deal with angry people opposing China’s dictatorial regime).
I’m anti-CCP but that doesn’t mean I’ll accept a bust it a Chinese human rights activist.
Looks like it’s one of these: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nezara_viridula (third instar, maybe fourth?).
These bugs go through five stages of moulting changing shape and size every time, so in a few weeks they may just look like a bug you’ll recognise.
