    Misanthropic propaganda, an art form that sometimes turns into a parody against its purveyors.


    China’s internet users are using this to poke fun at People’s Daily, which last year urged HK’s protesters to take off their face masks to be “proper Chinese citizens.”

    Full-length documentary (w/ subtitles) on the 2019 pro-democracy protests by Apple Daily.

    Posting it here so it doesn't get lost in the daily or weekly threads.

    There's something quite magical about stencil art...
