Aaand, here’s the “ga yao” puppy. #HongKongProtestspic.twitter.com/GmquyTyUVG
Today’s march in Hong Kong had been banned, but thousands showed anyway up for what has been called as a “prayer gathering”—which does not necessarily need a permit. #HongKongProtestspic.twitter.com/ENeKvQrEJd
It’s been hours. There have been massive downpours. They are still marching.pic.twitter.com/yICZPaVhRv
13th week, and HongKongers are still in the streets. The protesters have just been tear gassed on Harcourt Road—the site of original Umbrella movement. A helicopter is hovering over. A political matter has been delegated to police methods and it’s not working. #HongKongProtestspic.twitter.com/cqJ9FUQNMP
Police threw a lot of tear gas and the protesters threw it back. Barricades moved back and forth. Now a police line about to forward. Facing them is a banner the protesters left behind. It says, simply, “We want democracy.” On the wall, “you can’t kill us all.” #HongKongProtestspic.twitter.com/WKBnBtJilg

It’s a small miracle and no small blessing that there have yet been no fatalities in the #HongKongProtests. It’s a terrible idea to outsource a political question to the police force. Hasn’t worked so far. 13 weeks and counting.https://twitter.com/natashakhanhk/status/1167756483645210631 …
zeynep tufekci added,
It’s been like this all day. I just saw a lot of random people coughing and being helped to wash their eyes. Tear gas everywhere.

I can’t get a good picture but the protesters haven’t dispersed. It’s been almost 10 hours of teargas, foam bullets, arrests... It sometimes looks like a scene out of Blade Runner. #HongKongProtests.pic.twitter.com/1KiKWfGkad
