that is in fact extremely muted (and mostly about things that are not in line with ideology of west's elites) compared to their condemnation of 3rd world authoritarians or adversaries of west. especially so because west is now the biggest rights violators, including biggest mass murderers and perpetrators of illegal wars.
altruism?! organizations like amnesty and human rights watch, regularly employee people in and out of western governments and are part of the governing western elite. no wonder that while they are always quick to call out and denounce some third world authoritarians, and adversaries of west, they are far more muted when it comes to rights violations by western leaders(even in minority of cases where they don't simply ignore).
factually, greatest mass criminals and rights violators of 21st century, are presidents and other leaders of usa and it's allies. but you wouldn't know that, if your sources are amnesty and co.
statistics always involves selection and/or generalization of data. both of those acts always involves some kind of bias (even random selection) in what, how, and why, criteria used in process
however well intentioned, this boils down to people deciding for and controlling others. disrespecting them, treating them less than fully human, less than themselves. that is the underlying evil in all evil actions.
why support hong kong protests? and not others, like yellow vests protests? attempt s at suppression is greater against yellow vests;dozen+ protesters killed there, zero in hk.
was it ever on ground? uber was always under water, financially speaking. whole uber idea consists in making money out of not being regulated in regulated markets, through exploitation of loopholes in regulations. not very sustainable.
do you understand the difference between calls for violence (such as "kill all jews", "have sex with children", etc), and non violent opinion, which may include hateful, racist, sexist speech(such as "jews control media and government", "average iq of various ethnic groups differ", "men and women have different abilities", "trans women are not women", "abortion is murder",etc )?
suddenly lots of anti kaspersky articles on legacy media(and their meta like hn) almost like written to order. this happened before usa banned them from gov contracts. so predictable.
given how restrained the government response has been, given the protesters' violence and property damage, i doubt this was coordinated by either gov. other cleverer attritional responses like boycott and pressure on businesses sympathetic to protesters (eg. cathy pacific ceo was forced to resign today for not readily firing few pilots and employee participating in protests) is more likely way they will go, as ordinary people inevitably get tired of rather aimless protests.
