@MattersMohinga @MIC_Journal @yangyang_cheng @dtbyler @chenchenzh We fight for those we love, we fight for our friends, we fight so that there is a time when we don't live in fear of waking up to a friend dead or arrested. Sure we fight for 'freedom' 'rights' 'democracy' but fundamentally we fight so that no more will suffer. #MilkTeaAlliance
