SHAME-FREE thread: ask the dumbest question you have about the Hong Kong protests. I'll try to answer it or loop in a real Hong Konger to answer it for you. No question too ignorant or basic.

If you were secretly controlling the protests, what strategy or tactics would you change?

Tactically, I would put the use of petrol bombs off limits, as well as the destruction of MTR elevators. I would also stop besieging police stations and pick creative new targets. Strategically, I would organize a big march in support of Hong Kong's 380K foreign domestic workers

Yes, and also by the police refusal to grant "letters of no objection" that make the really big marches legal. Those used to be routinely granted, now are rare.
