Can we just stop posting this poo poo. If they’re actually going to move armored vehicles into HK they will not be able to hide it and it will be picked up by major sources real fast so there no point to coming in here breathlessly with bullshit tweets constantly.

I feel like white people live in this weird inbetween world

Where either their own experiences are the only authentic ones, like this lady

Or there's the identity politic brainwashed folks who believe white people cannot have authentic experiences and laugh at jokes told at their expense

Well, which is it. Is the white man a cartesian automaton or or the only cartesian subject

The trade war is doing psychological damage, Xi is unable to end it and it is definitely a topic of discussion in Mainland still, people mention it over dinner etc

It's a point of national pride and people secretly feel it's between big power players Xi and Trump, not between americans and chinese directly which is basically the best outcome for US politics

I mean, that's the obvious conclusion of anyone with a hint of intelligence so I'm not surprised if there's an unspoken belief in China that it's all bullshit dickwaving

I'm not sure on the wisdom of the airport occupation.

It seems to be turning public and international sentiment against the protestors, since they are now confronting regular travelers trying to check in instead of cops. This might ultimately help the CCP.

I think anything less disruptive means the protestors get out-waited anyway

edit: maybe this is why there hasn't been large scale arrests at the airport yet? arrests there would be easy and justifiable, but nothing. is it a trap?

effective civil disobedience must inconvenience people and damage the economy, otherwise it can be mostly ignored. that or have the actual threat of seizing power, which against the chinese state these protesters do not have.

How come they don't occupy the financial institutes and the stock exchange? Literally what Bane did.

Ideas are more powerful than guns. We would not let our enemies have guns, why should we let them have ideas?

it's not necessarily out of the interest of the PRC for Hong Kong to appear chaotic especially as the protesters make it more distinct that they identify as Hong Kongers and not as Chinese

no ones ever really tried that except ows and that didnt work. occupying the airport worked in thailand. also the protestors arent commies, unfortunately.

you are vastly overestimating the importance of the airport to your average person. the airport matters first and foremost to international business.

edit: Thailand was entirely different. Local cops there often supported the protestors. Those were were urban area protestors confronting a government that got elected by bribing rural voters. Also those protests indirectly led to the current junta, so be careful what you wish for.

i am aware of the nature of the yellow shirts. they were tacitly supported by reactionaries in military/police and could not really be cracked down on... but the protesters in the HK airport have also not been cracked down on yet.
