1. 🇭🇰 Protestors may shrink in numbers but this doesn't mean the movement is losing momentum / public support.

(Polls show that discontent towards HK Gov continues to grow by the day)

bloomberg.com/news/articles/…

2. 🇭🇰 Gov & #HKPF has been making efforts to disperse crowd (e.g. deployment of teargas & excessive force) at BEGINNINGS of protests

This means it is no longer possible to hold another peaceful 2M march without serious casualties.

3. Protests are no longer safe and recommended for elderly & children.

While not necessarily preferring use of violence, everyone out in the streets must be prepared to take the risk in case situation get ugly.

All protesters must be ready to run / put on a fight if need be.

4. We understand scenes of peaceful 2M matches are beautiful to the sight, but a shift in method of resistance is simply inevitable.

Don't forget what we're facing is not a benevolent figure but a bloodthirsty monster that has no regard for public opinion & basic human rights.

We won't stop untill all #FiveDemands are fulfilled. #NotOneLess.

We hereby plead for continuous int'l support, for this is not just a fight for HK, but a battlefront of #WarAgainstTyranny

Adding to that, lack of transportation also shrinks our numbers.

Govt owned railway #MTR often refuses to provide services while #HKPF sets roadblocks at harbour tunnels in protests. A dirty act to cuts off means of transportation to HK island, our usual site of protest.
