I'm sure these guys mean well but they've been manipulated as much as the 'other side' has been.
Edit:
What news are reported and how they are reported in not random [1]. There has very clearly been a campaign against China and this shows that it is working.
150+ people have died in Iraq over the last month during wide scale protests. There is an article on this on the BBC's website.
On the other hand, there is almost live coverage with embedded journalists as headline news every time a protester throws something at the HK police, or every time the HK police throws a teargas canister at protesters.
A current example: Hongkong. They have headline reporting every time there is a protest while other protests in other countries, and arguably much more significant protests, barely get a mention. This is not a coincidence.
Edit: A lot of the replies to this comment try to rationalise. This is being willfully blind.
Noam Chomsky has written a lot about the issue of raltive importance of reporting in order to manipulate public opinion. This is exactly what is happening because it should be obvious to everyone that there is a campaign against China ongoing.
Try to post substantive comments on what you disagree with about China and the CCP, show that you know a minimum the issues at hand, rather than "have we forgotten what liberty is" or "how to defeat the communists"...
