“Awakening”
The following is an account of a university student in Hong Kong:
" I am a CUHK student and arrestee for the charge of rioting.
I felt sad to watch the judgement of the court to Edward Leung Tin-kei and 811 on the charge of riot a few days ago because I can sense that the day I'll be locked up is getting and I will probably spend 6 to 7 years in prison. A new idea was in my mind. Do Hongkongers need another awakening?
When you choose to rebel and fight against tyranny, it is not only the choice of politics but also consciousness. You need to abandon normal life. It’s so-called “yellow ribbon”. Even you may be a peaceful protestor or investor, you have to get ready and get used to being in and out of prison for the rest of your life.
Why? It is because totalitarianism can’t tolerate any other opinion. Suppression will be more severe, and the bottom line will be lowered further. Common sense won’t exist anymore. Hong Kong Indigenous members were called “separatists” a few years ago. All pro-democracy parties are called “separatist” now. A few years later, supporting “one country two systems” maybe a separatist action.
You can be arrested if you fight with words (attacking TVB), fight with capital (money laundering) or fight with posters (property damage). Don’t think that you are safe if you don’t come out to march. After article 23 is passed, you can be arrested by just sharing news on Instagram. In China, you may be detained in charge of treason for prison punishment 8-10 year if you get any complaints or you if are Christian.
In a society without freedom, if you choose to fight against totalitarianism, life planning, family life, and a simple and peaceful life are not for you anymore. Your daily life will be paying fines, getting beaten, locked up in prison, being threatened, kidnapped, getting house arrest and being unpersoned. Li Wangyang, Liu Xiaobo and Chen Guangcheng's lives will be yours.
Thus, don’t feel sorry that our comrades are in prison. Getting locked up is unavoidable in the process of fighting against tyranny. We will continue after getting out. Where can you find a revolution without any sacrifice?
We enjoy our rights, freedoms and fairness in court now like we took it for granted. However, behind the pearl of the orient is the sacrifice of many nameless heroes.
British feminists were arrested and sent to jail in 1910. The leader of the worker union in US fighting for an 8-hour workday was convicted to the death penalty in 1886. 500 thousand soldiers died in the civil war so that the black man may be free. “Winter on fire” was a good show right? 125 people died in Ukraine in 93 days. In the history of humankind, the improvement of the system meant the sacrifice of countless revolutionaries.
Are the Hongkongers awakened? To abandon your life in an "advanced society" built on lies? To abandon your normal life because of your conscience? Let's make it simple, Did the Hongkongers wake up, and are they ready to give it all?"

#CU1738 「覺悟」 大家好，我係中大嘅被捕同學，被告暴動。 前幾日睇梁天琦同811轉暴動嘅判決，覺得有啲sad，因為聞到自己離入冊越嚟越近嘅味道，未來可能真係有六七年要喺監獄度過。Sad 下sad下有一種新諗法。其實香港人係咪要有一種覺悟？...
