A friend of mine here in Berlin is from Hong Kong. Thanks to the Pro-Democracy protests in Hong Kong, the general nature of which my friend confirmed, I know about how to use traffic cones to defend against tear gas.

I’ve personally witnessed “we don’t like how Corona is being handled” marches here in Berlin.

The difference is massive.

That’s a great point, thankfully Europe is more humane than China in dealing with riots.

The concern for how Corona is handled in Europe, is that the temporary measures for dealing with Corona become permanent.

In Denmark these temporary measures are supposed to expire in March 2021, but it’s anyone’s guess if that arrangement is honored by the government.

Oh yeah, the yellow vests that lost their fingers and eyes find the police very humane indeed! /s

Not to forget that top epidemiologists demand to stop the devastating measures immediately because our data shows that they cause much more harm than good.

Watching police brutality in countries like France does not give me that impression in the slightest.
