I have. Now it's your turn to read it more slowly. At the end, he deviates from talking about his own personal experience and colours his narrative with talking points that are one-sided, leaving you with no understanding of why the police are doing what they are doing.

I understand that he wanted to bring the story to a conclusion, and that he wasn't there for long, but why should he leave it to a fill-in-the-gaps exercise when it comes to the police?

Blocking roads hurts small businesses more. Large businesses are more likely to be opportunistic; why would they care?

I didn't read the whole article because it is excessively wordy, but it romanticizes the protesters and the summary at the end is incomplete. If you have the courage, please look further; this is more nuanced than your mischaracterization of me.

Well, in this context, you could accuse me of being a 'wumao'.

You would be completely wrong though because nobody is compensating me for writing any comments here and I do not belong to any group.

I am quite disappointed because of where these protests have lead. People would have you believe that 2 million people in HK are against the police but there is no basis for believing that as far as I can see.

Fu Guohao was severely beaten by black shirt protesters at the airport for allegedly being a mainland spy and a police plant. Why did the protesters do that? Why did they take away his freedoms? Why do these current narratives gloss over that fact?

You can accuse me of whataboutism, and I can accuse you of indulging in propaganda.

I can't imagine getting away with shining a laser in a police officer's eyes, let alone slinging bricks or molotov cocktails. The HK police are arguably kind.
