China says they are all women
the west will say they are all women too
China has some cute athletes though

Any more news about HK?
Seems to have gone quite since the APCs moved in
https://mobile.twitter.com/jimcyf decent news about stuff
fake n gay
Based HKers
I am rooting for the HK protest but I don't see how there could be a good ending to that
Last time it ended with decreasing morale by arresting a university professor
Well I can see a 'good ending', there's just gonna be a shit ton of collateral damage
If you consider tiannamen Square to have had a "good ending" then sure
so its not over
now the shit just starts
1 / 5 ? demands anyway (didnt open the link due on mobile)
playing for fools :D
To be fair only three of the demands matter. The unconditional amnesty for protestors is an impossible pipe dream and the classification of the events isn't going to make or break the movement regardless of whether it's changed or not.
As for the remaining three, she has promised to withdraw the bill upon the next legislative session and has now taken measurable steps towards setting up an independent commission to investigate police conduct
Beyond that, direct universal democracy (another pipe dream) seems to be much closer now that she's willing to accept dialogue
tl;dr watch the video
How much of this is sincere and how much of it will be faithfully enacted remains to be seen. I don't expect much from this woman. Some treats to placate the masses, empty promises of democratization and affordable housing. But I would not be surprised to see it pull a lot of support from future protests, now that the majority of their goals have ostensibly been reached. Most moderates should be swayed, especially with them returning to school. A lot of uncertainty in days to come. But one thing for sure is that any future civil disobedience and mass demonstration can be branded as radical separatist action and punished as such
more in terms of "will be branded.." tho
to be fair she's not in control
there's definitely someone behind the scene doing everything
