If you're pretty confident you really aren't a grovelling supplicant who cares what you look like?
You might be helping someone.
Pics of the Hong Kong protestors don’t look like groveling supplicants.
They’re fighting for their freedom against PLA trained ‘police’.
Using rocks, branches and potted plants. That’s all they have unfortunately.
But they’re wearing masks to hide their identities as much as possible.
And they never had the CV caseload the province immediately to their north did. In spite of almost unrestricted travel between the two (Thanks Carrie Lam! you PLA sucking toad!) for months.
Then, too...you might not.
