Oy 🤣

And fucking Musk

I miss everyone 🥲

I much prefer here too but if we want to persuade...

The issue is there's less traffic from the public here so it doesn't make as much sense here for activists because you don't get the general masses yet.

It's really great for academics though, or ideas circulation/ thought-leadership.

I mean for me also. I was active but NOT THAT active.

612係香港人真正覺醒嘅一日。

第一次有人真切感受到，守法唔等於安全，和平唔會換嚟對話。政府根本唔會聽你講。

而大家開始明白，civil disobedience嘅必要。

That peaceful protest alone was not enough. That civil disobedience was not chaos. It was necessary.

June 12, 2019, was a wild awakening for Hong Kongers.

What began as peaceful resistance was met with tear gas, rubber bullets, and batons. Protesters were students, workers, elders. Armed only with umbrellas and makeshift goggles.

It was the moment many realized the government would not listen.

Anyone else on Threads?

Holy smokes. The platform is so toxic.

I bought this t-shirt at the Tiananmen Mothers stand in Hong Kong's Victoria Park one June 4th and wore it on a number of other June 4ths. Now if I wear it, especially today, another June 4th... I'll attract unwanted police attention and might even get arrested for doing so.

💛

In 1989, students and workers gathered in Tiananmen Square to demand freedom and reform. The Chinese military opened fire on civilians. To this day, the exact number of deaths is still unknown.

June 4.

I came from a place that once lit candles.

Now, even public remembrance is banned in Hong Kong.

Those in power want to silence history.
We cannot let them.

If we still have the freedom to remember, then we must.

Actually, instead of staying quiet, it'd be helpful to use your platform to quote and amplify voices that need the boost. 🙌🏻

We are honestly living in the shittiest timeline.

Stop trying to make Hong Konger's advocacy issues partisan.

Oh wow!!

We need to learn about the past.

There's different political stripes, and then there's evil.

What we're seeing now, is evil.

The uncomfortable truth is that many Hong Kongers (also Canadians & others) don’t truly believe in checks & balances, freedom of expression, or democracy.

They embrace them only when it serves their side. When it doesn’t, they see them as obstacles/barriers.

There are no principles.

Stop buying into US disinformation about Canada.

The trade war/ tariffs flipflop had us all confused.

Why is Canadian media headlining with NO TRAITORS in the foreign interference inquiry is just baffling to me.

The report clearly says there are legitimate problematic and ethical concerns exhibited.

Why isn't that alarming?
Are we reading the same thing??

How do you build a Nation without its people? Without resources? Without talent?

If nation-building is the goal, why tear each other down? Why belittle those who support but are just trying to survive?

What are you really focusing on?

I'm saddened by the state of my community.

I laugh because this is so true.

The idea that joining xiaohongshu is sticking it to the man and that Chinese people all eat lobster for lunch is just so dumb it makes my head hurt.

We are so fucked.
