Blind throw of a teargas canister by Hong Kong police around a corner, first hits a reporter—yay helmet!—before teargassing random shoppers. This is one reason why the protests still have a lot momentum. Almost everyone I talked to mentioned police behavior as a key motivator. https://twitter.com/ray_slowbeat/status/1170733270079664134 …

At this point, many people are quiet mad at the Hong Kong police. One could’ve made a very good study of original Cantonese insults and curses from just listening to the passerby’s yelling at them.

Also, Hong Kong's protesters appear to me as deeply earnest and non-cynical. It's really a disservice to interpret them through the cynical/weary frame around politics/movements that's common in US/UK. Our own frames/projections to their particular moment don't work well.

Video clearly shows that the only acceptable protest gear is slim black necktie and complete badass attitude. What a hero.
