Journalism in Hong Kong

vendredi 31 décembre 2021 à 03:06

In Hong Kong, journalism that criticizes the government in any way is now forbidden. Even people who stopped months ago face prison for doing it before.

Everyone in Hong Kong who once criticized the state must be terrified now, but freezing and keeping mum will not prevent their being jailed, tortured and crushed. I hope that they have a chance to get out of Hong Kong and apply for asylum, but the state may already have blocked that. Otherwise, the only way I can see they can escape a fate worse than death is choose to die taking an enemy with you.

I hope that I will have the courage to die fighting if I am ever in a situation like that.
