OH NO! HONG KONG is trapped in a bizarre quantum vortex where any crisis that happens here is later repeated in the Western world. Three examples:
.
1) Hong Kong suffers a series of violent riots which are reported in a disproportionately positive way.
The Western world then suffers a series of violent riots which are reported in a disproportionately positive way.
.
2) Hong Kong gets coronavirus and we all have to wear masks.
The Western world then gets coronavirus and they all have to wear masks.
.
3) Hong Kong’s complex identity issues are wrongfully reported as a fight in which one side is all good and the other is all bad.
The Western world’s complex identity issues are then wrongfully reported as a fight in which one side is all good and the other is all bad.

Prediction:
.
Next, we’ll see calls for the sort of people who burned downtown Minnesota to be given the Nobel Peace Prize and Time magazine will consider them for the “persons of the year” title.

NOT JOKING!

Just wait.

THE HONG KONG protesters love of Donald Trump is going into overdrive.
.
People on the protesters’ website LIHKG believe “the only reason anyone could be critical of Trump is because they’re an agent of the Chinese Communist Party,” said protest supporter Wilfred Chan.
.
Many are forwarding Jimmy Lai Yee-ching’s recent letter saying that “only Trump” can solve Hong Kong’s problems.

I wouldn’t trust Trump to solve my crossword puzzle.

SOME PROTESTERS NOW claim that the Black Lives Matter people are controlled by the CCP. “The protests in America started off in a good place but it now looks like communists hijacked it to start a cultural revolution,” said Yoi Si on Twitter.
.
If you think all this is insane, just put on your Western media goggles and all nuance vanishes.

Q: I ran out of surgical gloves. Can I go out using my son’s boxing gloves?
A: Yes, but don’t drop your credit card.

I WAS NOT surprised to read yesterday that despite a massive Western-led campaign against it, Huawei has overtaken Samsung and Apple to become the world’s top smartphone maker. Young people (including my daughter) are switching to Huawei because of its SLR-quality photos.

Forget 5G politics. How good is it for Tiktok videos? That's the question.

SCENE AT HONG KONG airport when travelling is allowed again:
.
Customs officer: “Anything to declare?”
.
Traveller: “My belief in Western liberal democracy has been shaken.”
.
Customs officer: [Nods thoughtfully and puts a hand on his shoulder.] “Welcome to Hong Kong, brother.”
