This is how you stop tyranny. Saying there is nothing you can do is just being complicit.

The #HongKong selections—they aren’t elections—now serve three purposes: 1. Generating an illusion of #democracy. 2. Prompting displays of pro-#China govt loyalty. 3. Giving cover to international finance and other businesses (see #1).

Sigh. Loving Bluesky after a couple days, but I see the specter of Alex Lo will continue to haunt. Now I suppose I'll have to follow @scmp.bsky.social here and continually remind them that they're a fallen publication.

It's awful any of them got sentences, even though the sentences could have been worse. Even one day in jail for these Hong Kongers is one too many. I hope that when they finally do get out that they find a way to leave the city. They've done their part and deserve goo's lives.

"Declines to rule out." Er, OK. That's...something? I'm saying this as purely an armchair general, but the best option would be to wake up one morning to news that long range missiles have hit Russia, without all the telegraphing in advance. www.ft.com/content/ee5b...

The Hong Kong 47 are set to be sentenced on Tuesday. "The U.S. has described the trial and its guilty verdicts as 'politically motivated'..." No shit. The fact they've had yo wait this long at all for sentencing has been a sentence in and of itself. www.reuters.com/world/china/...

Yeah no. Biden allowing Ukraine to use ATACMS inside Russia will not start WWIII. It will finally allow Ukrainians to hit targets to slow constant RU missile attacks, defend their borders, maintain position in Kursk, and hit North Korean troops.

First post. Finally gave up on Twitter, X, whatever after 15 years. For those who happen across this, I stand with Hong Kongers against the CCP, with Ukrainians fighting for their survival against Putin's Russia (hi #NAFO), and generally like to dive in on an assortment of topics.
