        Talking abt fake news, the pro-Beijing and blue ribbon camps are experts This post, claiming a police’s penis was being broken by protesters, was widely circulated in fb And most of people in those camps don’t have critical thinking and truely believed in it🤪🤪🤪pic.twitter.com/o9ddQozijk

        Despicable KOLs abusing their positions as respectable citizens to mislead and incite hate against police. It's amazing how much junk they churn out that is believed. These people deliberately create problems not solve them #FakeNews

        Well, when there is undeniable proof that the HK police is using triad criminals and perpetrating acts of vandalism to try and make protestors look bad, how can one be surprised when they are accused of other crimes?

        Why are we still reading Alex Lo? He's been out of touch with reality since way before SCMP was bought by Alibaba

        4. Read HKFP, not SCMP. Seriously, the SCMP has been owned by Alibaba since 2015, and its opinion columns have been horrible before it changed ownership. The opinion columns reflect maybe 5% of Hong Kong's thoughts, although sometimes the news is okay (use your judgement).

        High time to regulate and define perimeters where these press corps can safely operate. For example, the corps should stay at least 3 meters away when police tackling protesters.

        I am a part-year Hong Konger and I can assure you I have personally seen the police night-sticking protesters in Central. No BS, no spin, no need to lie. I saw it with my own eyes and it was brutal to watch.

        That's why an independent investigation into this whole affair is so important to clear the police name. Why is the police and the government not supporting it?
