minus-squaredavel [he/him]@lemmy.mllinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up9·1 year agoObviously violent “protesters” can’t be allowed to terrorize a city. But that’s not the narrative imperial core media spun about it. They spun a story about “freedom fighters”. It’s what they always do. Behind a made-for-TV Hong Kong protest narrative, Washington is backing nativism and mob violence
