612 is the day when HongKongers finally woke up

Do not go gentle into that good night
Old age should burn and rave at close of day;
Rage, rage against the dying of the light.
Though wise men at their end know dark is right,
Because their words had forked no lightning they
Do not go gentle into that good night.

Amid the large police presence in #HongKong during Xi Jinping’s apparent ‘visit’ on 7.1, a sign was found in busy Causeway Bay. It reads:
“We have the right to mourn. I’ll keep mourning you til someone mourns me.”
「悼念是每個人的權利，所以直至有人悼念我之前，我都會繼續悼念你」
