My favourite piece so far for @nybooks. To think this came about from a chance encounter in the kitchen of the co-living space I was living in 5 months ago

Sunny Cheung, a participant in the primaries, said the arrests show his decision to flee overseas after the national security law came into effect was right, though painful. “This is obviously a political purge to erase the whole pro-democracy camp” https://t.co/p5zVTvdmc1
One day
One day #XiJinping & his little morally retarded henchwoman #CarrieLam will be overthrown
One day the perpetrators of crimes against humanity will be brought to justice
One day #HongKong, #Uyghurs, #Tibet & all #China will be free
No doubt about it. History says so.
On Wednesday, more than 50 Hong Kong democrats were arrested under the national security law over their organisation and participation in the primaries for the postponed 2020 Legislative Council election last year. Full story: https://t.co/NJqdXDDJNq #HongKong
In Hong Kong, the authorities are right now arresting all the democratic nominees who participated in the primaries — 50 candidates! Hong Kong has just become the frontline of China’s new totalitarian state.
Just to be clear, #HK political crackdown is having a significant negative impact on business. Legitimate questions about rule of law raised + as #HK image deteriorates, it becomes more and more difficult to defend why you should maintain costly operations here
Just in: more than 20 nominees of the 2020 democratic primaries are arrested for breaking the NSL and subverting the regime.
As one of those nominees, I strongly condemn these arrests which reveals the demise of HK. I urge the Free World to take action and contain the #CCP NOW
