Friends have told me that when my thread on the #Chinaprotest was forwarded to Weibo, their accounts were banned.
The PRC government is so afraid of kind words to people. They are scared of the inner pursuit of freedom of humankind.
Let’s continue to spread the words.

The upcoming voting for legislators in Hong Kong is a “selection.”
Only ~20% of the seats are popularly contested and candidates were vetted by political police. Figures representing people have no hope of running.
We should boycott the SELECTION— asking it is ILLEGAL in HK now

As one of the #Hongkongers facing political oppression, I stand by the G7 leaders’ statement and call for the immediate release of #Navalny and other #RussianProtesters. No one should face assassination or prosecution because they dare to voice out.

6. The protestors who entered the building were civilized and well-mannered. They were fighting for a better society and social justice. They were demanding an unelected government to implement a fair and open electoral system. These mark the differences.

Daily life in Hong Kong: when you are sitting on a minibus and randomly being pointed by a loaded firearm with a group of metally disordered policemen.
How “cosmopoliatan” and “civilised” it is to live in #HongKong?
Rediculous.

6. Pompeo has a long-time interest in Hong Kong. I recalled that, as a Kansas Congressman, he'd been one of very few House co-sponsors of the landmark #HKHRDA, an updated version of which would pass four years later. Now he works tirelessly and unwaveringly to implement the law.

When stickers citing Bibles were accused of breaching #NationalSecurityLaw, Deputy director of #China's office on #Hongkong HKMAO just said the new law is not one-off. #Beijing will introduce more China's laws to #HK in the future.

Truly horrible experience from our fellow protestors. Please spread to let the world knows how the torture from the police is and how much fear the youngsters in Hong Kong have to face. twitter.com/thetimeusedtob…

PLEASE SPREAD:
Anti-mask law has only been enacted twice in Communist China's history:
First: XinJiang
Second: HongKong
Is the concentration camp coming to Hong Kong?

3. Also it’s doubtful whether the so-called “change through trade” policy really works. After decades of economic cooperation, #China's human rights situation just worsens, w/ universal values becoming taboos & hundreds of rights lawyers arrested. What are we really changing to?

A great reminder of what the CCP are doing to erode our core values and democratic system. Listen to this podcast to lean more about CCP's tactics.

These people, hypocrites, have no right to crticize protestors. They support the dictators yet bracing themselves a “pacemaker” outlook. That’s the most disgusting position you can ever stand. Holding the wrongdoers in power accountable is the best way to end conflicts.

“This book is dedicated to all Hongkongers who have marched in the streets to fight for our freedoms. Their sacrifices, especially those of my friends who have been imprisoned in their pursuit of democracy, should not be forgotten.”

4. Don't forget China posed threats in EU backyard in recent years, by challenging EU authority w/ its #BeltAndRoad & 17+1 initiative. EU leaders should cautiously reconsider whether China is a trustworthy partner while it continues to export its authoritarian influence overseas.

Football has many sides. One is about competition, one is connection. Though I am not competitive, I played football in a few countries. Teammates with diversity are instantly connected. A common language and joys are shared. I love this side of football, not the one with hatred.

Thanks Athens. Great reception and encouragement.
I shared 3 lessons to world leaders: 1. Money from China is RED and with agenda;2. Authoritarian states abuse the openness of democracies and we need to defend; 3. Support global movemnt.
That’s how we save democracy.

US Secretary of State nominee @ABlinken's remarks on China and Hong Kong's issues from his testimony were on point. We need consistency in China policy and diversified tools to curb the CCP's authoritarian expansion, and unite our allies with coordinated strategies. Encouraging!
