Trying to say that "all protesters are CIA" or "all protesters are begging for colonialism to come back" is not productive, but neither is saying that none of them are.

Are you able to show me somewhere where anyone very literally and clearly states (or even maybe heavily implied) there’s *no* involvement at all of either foreign intelligence agencies or people who would prefer a return to British rule?

I’m sincerely interested if anyone took that stark of a stance because I’m pretty sure they haven’t.

This but unironically. Also forever lol at twitter going-ons being a large part of this discussion while still, it bears repeating very often, literally being blocked in Beijing.

Edit: because it very much also means that there’s far more legitimate pro-Beijing sources on Twitter, for better or worse, and means that pro-Beijing comments *really actually do* skew more often than the other side towards weirdos and poo poo-stirrers than people posting in earnest and in good faith

Just let the locals elect their own governor or whatever. The important thing is dismantling Hong Kong capitalism.

The PRC lets villages elect their own chiefs as well as other localities. The Hong Kongers can have a similar arrangement, just avoid provocations like this extradition bill and focus on economic changes first.

Sure as long as HKers also choose to allow patriotic education programs as HK curriculum to ensure proper class consciousness and rejection of false narratives of separatism and subservience to core imperial capitalistism

I don't know why it's so controversial to suggest that, however sincere and valid the original protest movement was (and still is), there's absolutely people out there who are either A. clamoring for lovely things because they have bad politics, or B. being co-opted by foreign actors with their own ulterior motives with regards the PRC.

Trying to say that "all protesters are CIA" or "all protesters are begging for colonialism to come back" is not productive, but neither is saying that none of them are.
