7/21 marks the anniversary of the #721YuenLongAttack perpetrated by 🇨🇳#CCP aligned gangs. #Hongkongers were indiscriminately bloodily attacked in the train station. #HKPolice did not respond to emergency calls until hours later, chatting casually with the gangs when they arrived

[Arrests at #hkprotests hit 10,000 milestone] 1. Since #HongKongProtests last year, 10,000+ HKers were arrested with nearly 400 arrests solely in the past two months. It implies in every 700 #Hongkongers, one has been detained due to protests or #hkpolice’s arbitrary arrests.
53
3. Hardship is temporary. With #Hongkongers’ unwavering spirit of resistance, Joshua is determined that #Hkers will not surrender our fight for justice and hope.
54
5. Up to now, #Hkgov & #hkpolice downplay the whole incident. It casts further shadows over #nationalsecuritylaw as #HKgov will offer nearly no help when #Hongkongers and foreigners are extradited to #China and face inhuman and unfair treatment in secret trials and dark prisons.
55
1/ In the new year, #Beijing and #HKgov choose not to answer #Hongkongers’ demands. Instead, they plan to escalate #policebrutality against HKers by arming #hkpolice with new electroshock weapons like stun guns and net guns. scmp.com/news/hong-kong…

#HongKong ’s gate is breached. Our autonomy guaranteed by the Sino-British Joint Declaration and #1C2S has been bombarded by #Beijing. This might be the finale of #HK but #Hongkongers shall not give in! #StandinWithHongKong #YouCantStopUs
On this day 2yrs ago, 2019-06-12, #Hongkongers surrounded the Hong Kong Legislative Council to block the passage of the "China Extradition Law". Riot police fired tear gas into the crowd, nearly causing a stampede, the 1st mobilization of riot police to suppress HKers since 2014
59
5. Not to mention that dissidents in exile, #Hongkongers or even #Taiwanese overseas might be covered by the secret deal & extradited to #China’s courts. In fact, #hkpolice has already used the new law to arrest dissidents in exile and also a US citizen. edition.cnn.com/2020/08/01/chi…

2/ Although the law is highly contentious in #Hongkong, and widespread backlash broke out when #HKgov introduced the law in 2003, Beijing this time deliberately chooses to ram through this unpopular law by completely ignoring the will of #Hongkongers.
61
#Hongkongers are hanging in here. We are not giving up our fight for freedom, human rights, rule of law and a democratic political system to safeguarding these values and institutions. We are sure we are and shall not be alone. #StandWithHK #FightForFreedom

3. Worse still, he may face graver charges if #police crack his clients' phones w/ phone hacking tools like #Cellebrite & find any suspicious conversations. He hopes his bail can be granted & #12hkyouths can come back safe. After all, #Hongkongers hope he can be released soon.
63
2/ Learnt from our experiences, #Hongkongers share some secret remedies to combat the virus - wearing masks, staying at home, travelling less and being critical about the government’s words.
64
5/ #Hongkongers are not merely the people living in #HK or speaking Cantonese, but also those who strive to safeguard liberal values and democracy that we all cherish and #StandwithHK under authoritarian oppression, no matter who you are and where you live.
65
4. Clearly it is the largest election fraud in #HK’s history. But #Beijing cannot overturn the strong mandate of 610,000 #Hongkongers who had cast their ballots the city's first-ever #hkprimaries early this month.
#Hongkongers starting to gather on the streets, in defiance of the #NationalSecurityLaw & heavy #HKPolice presence. We fear, but we can't afford to let fear overcome us. We will continue marching on till the day we see the dawn, for freedom is not free.
67
4/ Tonight is also the precious moment for #Hongkongers. #HongKongProtests have shown China’s intolerance to dissidence an d freedoms, and #Taiwaneses have defended their lovely island with their votes.
A time lapse of the first of the #HongKongProtests, on 2019-06-09, attended by 1.03 million #Hongkongers, out of Hong Kong's population of 7mn, to protest the imposition of the "Extradition Law" which would allow arbitrary "extradition" to China on China's terms. #FreeHongKong
Today 6/29 marks 1 yr of the death of Lo Hiu-yan, a 21 year old university student who jumped from the 24th floor, leaving behind a message in red in the hallway: "Dear #Hongkongers, Even though the struggle drags on, we must never forget the ideals we hold, we must persist. ->

2. Since the high primary turnout demonstrates #Hongkongers’ determination for democracy and captures the world’s attention, Joshua Wong urged #China to think twice and holds itself from further imperiling the city’s autonomy and democracy with the new sweeping #NSL.
Our beloved Grandma Wong shows her determination & bravery once again in #HongKong. She has been nominated for the Nobel Peace Prize by UK’s All-Party Parliamentary Group on HK. She is a representation the heroic spirit of #Hongkongers and our love for freedom. #womenshistory t.co/XZExUmE2Mv

8. Given the unreliability of the test and high potential of DNA abuse for surveillance, #Hongkongers will boycott the proposed universal testing. We urge #HKgov to halt the plan and take other effective measures, such as full border seal, to curb the virus.
73
2. Clearly, this is another game censorship after the recent ban on Animal Crossing, which #Hongkongers take our activism into video games. And also #Blizzard saga last year, where a Hearthstone player was banned for supporting #Hongkong.
74
4. Compared to the sacrifice that the city’s young souls have made, mine is negligible. I hope #Hongkongers and the world can continue standing with them when dissents are thrown into prisons one by one.
