When Britain returned Hong Kong to China 22 years ago, the Chinese government promised to maintain “one country, two systems” for the next 50 years. In a new series, we take a look back to see if that promise was kept. nyti.ms/2IZmzm9
What we found was that Hong Kongers may still enjoy a degree of freedom with free elections, a free press and an unfettered judicial system. But almost every day brings new evidence those freedoms are slipping away. nyti.ms/2NlX42x
In recent weeks, Hong Kongers have taken to the streets to protest. For many here, there is sense of time running out.

The takeaway: On paper, Hong Kong’s autonomy is guaranteed for another 28 years. On the ground, the reality appears far less certain.

Caleb Cain was a college dropout looking for direction. He was then pulled into YouTube’s far-right universe, watching thousands of videos filled with conspiracy theories, misogyny and racism. "I was brainwashed." nyti.ms/2QW3JPj
Over years of reporting on internet culture, @kevinroose has heard countless versions of Caleb’s story: an aimless young man — usually white, frequently interested in video games — visits YouTube for direction or distraction, and gets drawn to a community of far-right creators.
A common thread in these stories is YouTube’s recommendation algorithm that determines which videos appear on users’ homepages and inside the “Up Next” sidebar next to a video that is playing. The algorithm is responsible for more than 70% of all time spent on the site.

🚨#Russia: Opposition leader Alexey @Navalny suffered “severe allergic reaction” in jail and was taken to hospital. His face is swollen but in satisfactory condition, reportedly. He shldn’t even be in jail. His only offense is protesting for fair elections bbc.in/2SI8kpc
@navalny 🚨#Russia: @Navalny's doctor states "with confidence" his condition & hospitalization was caused by "unknown chemicals. Alexey has no allergies and never has. Moreover, he ate the same food with all the prisoners, used no new perfume or personal care products."
via @Kira_Yarmysh
@navalny @Kira_Yarmysh #Russia: Seconds before riot police (OMON) rushed people coming to visit @Navalny in the hospital, arresting them including journalists, to keep them from seeing him, this hospital worker claimed it was Alexey #Navalny himself who asked them to be dispersed.🤔

#Russia: Over 600 people arrested in Moscow's brutal clampdown on pro-democracy #protests today. Russians are risking life & limb for the right to fair elections, to end the ban on opposition candidates for city council. Sheer numbers show how scared the Mayor is of people power.
🗳✊#Russia #Protests: Riot police crackdown on pro-#democracy protesters in #Moscow today. Russians are protesting opposition candidates being booted from ballots. They don’t want taxation w/o representation. Sounds familiar. Video via @novaya_gazeta
#Russia #Moscow #protests: Riot police out in full force–with dogs–beating protesters on the ground. This couple asked for an ambulance for his broken ribs & a concussion. Cops refused, hauled him off to paddywagon, claiming “nobody beat you.” @mediazzzona

In case you wondered, as time permits I add Q drops tha match the deltas (time between tweets) & timestamps on President Trump’s Tweets as a way to re_read drops & to see if they are deliberate on POTUS part, possibly pointing to a specific drop. Sometimes they seem to be! 😊
