RE: Some recent footage from Hong Kong
When all of the mainstream is on the same page, you can be sure they are feeding you bs, @thevil. Any of these events is easy to research online. In this case, I just happen to know someone there.
So 2+2=4 is BS because mainstream seems to agree on that?
Research online your ass.
You are talking about my home.
Your home, Hong Kong, or your home Earth, @thevil?
Hong Kong, the only place on Earth that I used to sleep well.
I encourage you to go down to where the action is happening and see for yourself, @thevil. The office workers of the are seem to be able to go about their business without much difficulty. And then too, this seems to be fading out, so you might not have much more time to investigate.
The Hong Kong workers seem to be able to go about their business because you're probably looking at Central. But even that is not normal. Do you ever expect to see riot police lined up in the CBD of a a major financial center? The MTR closes early in the evening, and ramdomly shuts down whenever the police ask them to. Do you think that's normal and things are fading out?
If you have one friend who works there, then I imagine you are fed one source of second hand information. Try speaking to all your friends and family actually living in HK as a local (if you have any), and try speaking to friends who are actually frontliners, and relatives who are real, not self claimed reporters, working for proper media, and you will see exactly what the real situation is like, and what all this means for the local Hong Kong people.
One photo he showed me on his phone, showed riot police in formation with people eating street food and taking cell phone pics just a few feet away, @livinguktaiwan. He does work in the city center somewhere. I don't know of anyone else there, although a steemer who visited and posted a few weeks ago had no issues except for cheaper prices he was happy for.
Hong Kong is not totally paralysed yet, you can still go to work, still go out, still go to school unless the police stop you in the MTR station. But to think things are dying down and fading out is the sort of shit the CCP want people who don't know better to believe.
CCP <<< I have no idea what this is since I do not follow news. But these "events" seems to rise and then fall to oblivion over time. We'll see how long they can keep this one going.
