(2) HK cut his contract, wrote in his FB page: "certain political parties are silly - they are not aware that after being defeated at a battle, they'll become captives - after the 2019 battle, I was the only one who told people not to come out, that there

(3) no need to pull the rickshaw for rich people, & even if they were to do so they should've been extremely careful, at least to avoid yelling pro-independence slogans or singing such songs - cos in case they lost in the battle, those who remained would taste rotten fruit - ImageImage
(4) & defeat was indeed inevitable & should've been anticipated early on

(this is rich 🤣😇 as Chin Wan "inspired" young university students to reject China's sovereignty over HK & now he has the nerve to mock others while he enjoys a jail-free existence)
en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chin_Wan Image
(5) Chin Wan is also known for mocking a female HK health bureau official whose husband passed away while she carried on with her duty to host press conferences to update the public on Covid situation

(6) Chin Wan even wrote this long letter to the US Congress begging for sanctions against HK on 1 October 2019

(1) Welcome to the WTF Epoch Times Hate-spreading Propaganda as "News" Series:

HK commentator Chris Wat on the history of The Epoch Times (大紀元) in Hong Kong & Canada- US-based Epoch Times has been distributed in HK streets for free for 18 years, but

speakout.hk/%E6%B8%AF%E4%B…
(2) that changed in April 2019, when it began to be sold for HK$8 at 7-11 stores & newsstands - HK in general respects media freedom under our "One Country Two Systems" Model (what's censored in China can mostly be published/shared in HK) & Epoch Times hk.epochtimes.com/news/2019-03-2…
(3) took advantage of it to spread anti-China propaganda, masqueraded as "news" - that's why Falun Gong, which has been banned as a cult in China since 1999, has been able to operate in HK freely for decades, & has been able to distribute its Epoch Times in HK streets & newsstand

(1) a new topic on HK protesters' favourite LIHKG forum: "Do you feel that we were too impulsive in the summmer of 2019?" - former HK chief executive CY Leung quipped: "Others (eg Western regimes) offered only soy sauce but you offered the whole chicken!" (so true!) now that they
(2) now that they start to reflect on the HK protests & riots, wonder if they realise that Western forces (politicians, media, agitators, regime change operatives) only had to lift a finger & write some crap to incite them & they did not hesitate to commit
