Hong-Kong Protests

Do you really think the rioters would accept defeat? Before the election, the rioters at LIHKG and TG have already decided not to accept the result of the election if things didn't go in their way. And with their sophisticated propaganda and the support of the media, they would have succeeded. The election result just makes things easy for them.

What the rioters want, what the anti-establishment camps claim, what foreign countries claim, and why the elections turned out the way they did do not have to actually match. You are falling for or propagating anti-China/CCP as well as slave mentality propaganda and spin.

If you think cyber bullying is bad, then you should take a look at the bullying by the rioters. Basically if you don't agree with them, they would find out who you are, where you work, where your wife work, where your parents work, and where your children go to schools and use every means they could to harass you and your family.

That is a poor and weak local governance issue that is not inherently political. However in this case it does coincide with a weak and poorly led pro-China/CCP camp. Both the rioters and the local government can be incompetent, which leaves the "peaceful" anti-establishment groups the least bad choice.

All anti-establishment camps have vowed to never cut ties with the radicals no matter what they did. So even some of them don't agree with some of things that the rioters did don't matter because they would support the rioters no matter what.

That is a huge assumption which I think would be proven hollow if confronted by competent local authorities and a capable pro-establishment camp

I never advocate for the PLA or PAP but the central government might not have a choice if things go from bad to worse. HK government wants to cave and give the rioters amnesty but the central government refused to do so. This election would open the door for the HK government to request for amnesty and special committee to investigate the HKPF. Not sure what the central government would respond.

My reply was to multiple posts by others as well as one of your posts. A special investigation into the HKPF's behavior is not necessarily a bad thing. Granting the rioters amnesty would be a very bad thing but that is by no means guaranteed. Each of these is a power struggle in and of itself, the struggle isn't over unless one side just gives up, even if they are rather incompetent.

Not sure what you are trying to say here.

Both the rioters and the local government can be incompetent, which leaves the "peaceful" anti-establishment groups the least bad choice.

Last time Donald Tsang bowed to them and did everything they asked him to do. The housing market ended up increasing 5 folds. The so called peaceful anti-establishment groups have already brainwashed two generations of youngsters. You mean that China should let them keep brainwashing another generation of youngsters. There is no peaceful anti-establishment but a group of cowards that manipulate colleges and high schools students to riot but send their own children away to keep them from participating in the riots.

Carrie Lam has already capitulated and completely rescinded the extradition bill. Did it bring peace? Not only it didn't bring peace but it actually emboldened the rioters. If you wanted to throw the police under the bus, I would ask who is going to keep the law and order in HK. Carrie Lam and her administration have done nothing and without the HKPF HK would have fallen a few months ago.

Unless the central government is prepared to send in the troops or meet every demands the rioters ask for, allowing a special investigation committee is probably the dumbest thing the central government can do.

lol reading most of the comments here makes me laugh hard

the pro-china narrative here is so deep and thick, it's quite a fantasy land

it's really cute how most of the folks here aren't/haven't been on the ground but can have so much stuff to say and what they dreamed the narrative to be.

and the amount of insults hurled at those who aren't pro-china really showed the class acts of some members here.

anyways keep masturbating to the pro-china fantasies

must be so disappointed there's no "silent majority" hahaha (if you guys had actually paid attention to what's happening in HK and understand what the people are feeling instead of what you project them to be, you won't expect this sort of fantasy to be true), and some even went on to insult them. how typical. (go on and keep your head in the sand)

i signed off here years ago due to the amount of bigotry for having a different opinion.
the groupthink here for sino-centric views is quite brainwashing. maybe it's time for some members here to stop thinking the world revolves around the chinese communist narrative.

for people here with some critical thinking, maybe it's time to stop getting absorbed by the pro-china narratives here and find things out on the ground for yourself or even challenge your own established worldviews

in 2014 on the 78th day of the Umbrella they said they'll be back. i left around the similar note.
now they're back, and im also here to enjoy the last laugh here.

i won't be back, and i look forward to seeing how the next 2 years will test the narratives of both sides and see who emerges the victor.

Yes, but it was you who were being a bigot at others for their different opinions. Your post is reek of projection, for example:

You: accuse others of group-think.
Also you: engage in group-think with your being "on the ground" excuse.


Such projection is very typical in the anti-Chinese establishments:

China haters: accuse China of being a dictatorship.
Also China haters: silence their opposition.

China haters: accuse China of spreading propaganda.
Also China haters: engage in spreading propaganda.

China haters: China/Hong Kong police are using violence.
Also China haters: use violence.

China haters: accuse Hong Kong police of rape.
Also China haters: ???


China haters have to virtual signal hard or else they can't cope with the cognitive dissonance.

Only people who drank too much kool-aid of Western Democracy would be that concern about majority. So you are projecting here.

Members here believe in truth and objectivity. Chinese "communist narrative" just happens to coincide with conclusions from these two values, not the other way around. Your criticism is like accusing everyone of being stuck in Chinese "communist narrative" just because Chinese "communist narrative" happens to say the Earth is round. False dichotomy.
