So I’ve been observing the Hong Kong protesters for months now, and the so-called frontliners don’t looked thinned out or younger to me. At least not today. If anything, even though they still “be water”,l quickly, they are perhaps the least skittish I’ve seen.

This is really dangerous. Hong Kong press is reporting a medic it has been hospitalized with serious burn injuries after one of these new Chinese tear gas canisters hit him in the back. I found one (see upthread), it had crumpled upon impact.https://twitter.com/rachel_cheung1/status/1190619209413251073 …

A video getting shared a lot today. The girl gets caught and yells for the boy to leave. “Go, go.” He doesn’t, steps in between her and the police, and they both get arrested. Hong Kong protest style love.https://twitter.com/crossstreamw/status/1190182045147750402?s=21 …

Another video making the rounds in Hong Kong. Fireman gets upset with the police for firing at his truck. He does a “WTF” and then police start shoving him around. (HK firemen have been acting quite professionally and are generally respected by protesters) https://twitter.com/galileocheng/status/1190617618190757888 …

And this. The guy was driving a Porsche playing the unofficial Hong Kong anthem. Got arrested. (Did someone want to drive it to the police lot??) https://twitter.com/szengaszenga/status/1190530581362118656 …

Just a reminder that
@Apple has banned the app that the HongKongers could use to learn that the ordinary shopping mall they’re about to enter has just been stormed (or teargassed!) by riot police. I keep repeating this, but these are not minor decisions.https://twitter.com/woppa1woppa/status/1190944605102985216 …

Sad turning point for Hong Kong. The 22 year-old student, Alex Chow, has died following a fall, reportedly trying to escape tear gas/police. (Sad reminder:
@Apple bans apps that people in Hong Kong can use to try to avoid tear gas and police operations.)https://twitter.com/ezracheungtoto/status/1192616323672506368 …Show this thread
