      They banned their own anthem in a short period as well
      In the beginning of corona virus, a Chinese doctor stated the seriousness of the virus and got arrested.
      He died in in the fighting with virus soon.
      Some Chinese people use the lyrics of their anthem ‘Arise! You who refuse to be bound slaves!’ to show their anger on censorship on speech to China government.
      And CCP use censorship to suppress anger to censorship lol

      The government always do in a way. Main reason why they take away peoples' "eyes, ears, mouth, hands", means of protecting/defending oneself and others, one's ability to stand up for themselves, and more.
      Government when shifting to tyranny ir any other form of oppressive government take away the relevant guns of the age as that's their means of defences.

      chris chan Well, there is a Chris-chan (short for Chandler) but let’s not go down that rabbit hole. Anyhoo, accents tend to be come neutral or heavily diminished when singing unless the singers themselves intentionally sing with an accent. Case in point, Elton John, Adele, ABBA and other singers don’t have their distinct accents due to the way phonetics and melody works. Even American accents like a southern or New York accent disappears.
      Don’t try and discredit the efforts of the Hong Kong people against the Chinese Communist Party reneging on the One Country, Two Systems agreement that was supposed to have lasted for 50 years.

      Whilst British imperialism is an absolute cancer upon the world, the problem lies not with the ‘One country, two systems’ system, but with the authoritarian Chinese government. The likes of Mussolini would cum in their pants if he heard about the levels of authoritarianism currently going on in China. The people of Hong Kong do not want to be extradited to this government for good reason.

    I have a question: among millions of HK protesters, is there anyone still remember the poor HK girl killed by her boyfriend? How is that guy who killed someone and got away with it? Does anyone HK people care? Is it something wrong with the current legal system? I am wondering if the family members or relatives got out and protest the extraction law.

      How does that in anyway connect to the people of Hong Kong protesting against CCP rule?

    I wish that there was a way for international viewers to help the movement! I’ve spread the word online, but I would personally love to donate in anyway to help the cause.
