What were the Hong Kong protests about? Anything BUT democracy. Think "Kiev Maidan." Think "Venezuela Peaceful Opposition." Think "Syria Democratic Opposition." What have they all in common? Regime change: in Ukraine, neonazis; in Venezuela, classic Latin American fascists; and in Syria, Wahhabi Daesh Tafkiri headchoppers. Does that sound like "democracy" to you?

"The [protesters] have forced local authorities to shelve an important, Beijing-backed crime-fighting bill enabling extradition among Hong Kong, Taiwan and mainland China. While the legislation is explicitly aimed at grave, non-political offenses, the anti-Communists insist it would severely threaten the civil liberties of all Hong Kongers."--Thomas Hon Wing Polin in CounterPunch "Color Revolution In Hong Kong: USA Vs. China," June 18, 2019
