    At what point does the outrageous become common place, that's what I am worried about.

    Suspension of rights of people even after release...doesn't seem very different to what goes on in the mainland...

    I was there in MK when the cops came and approached the lady and the man with the huge yellow umbrella up.... massive road blockage causing annoyance to those mini skirted girls and squid game consume wearers on scooters roaming the roads

    It's been a steady, resolute descent indeed.


    "On Nov 2 2019, HKers & friends planned the 'Emergency Call for Aid & Autonomy' global rallies. HKer's angst & the escalation of police violence that day in retrospect partly explains events over the following few weeks. But let's set the scene..."

    If you support the so-called "people's democratic dictatorship" (*) you just might not have anything to hide, right?

    Anyway, hiding things from the rulers is an evil foreign invention to be resolutely eradicated.

    "The nature of the activity and targeting is consistent with a government backed actor," the Google researchers say.



    (*) As self-decribed by certain TLA.
