I hope that we all understand our enemy is not Chinese people, but the Chinese Communist Party. No hatred should be deployed among people.
Democracy and autonomy are what we are striving for. Stop labelling the protest as "independent movement". twitter.com/VOAChinese/sta…

1. THREAD: Today, August 12, marks the single most violent day in more than two months of the Hong Kong protests as we see the police all across town acting completely out of their control. Below is a list of what happened — again, all within a SINGLE DAY.
