The first time since #Tiananmen Massacre in 1989, #EU is set to sanction human rights abusers in #China! Senior #EU officials will start the sanctions which include travel ban and freezing of assets of officials responsible for the human rights atrocities against Uyghurs in #Xinjiang or #East Turkestan. These sanctions will need formal sign-off, we're banking on it to happen. However, we must also take notice that the Netherlands remains the only European country so far with a parliament that voted to formally recognize #CCP's action as genocide. Do keep up, Europe! At the same time, we urge #Canada, whose parliament has declared CCP's action as genocide to sanction #Chinese officials responsible for the torture, rape and murder of thousands of ethnic minorities!

#HongKong M+ museum's works are slammed by pro-#CCP politicians for "inciting hatred", the museum has confirmed that #AiWeiwei's photograph of him raising a middle finger at #Tiananmen Square will not be on view when the museum finally opens its doors to public. With pleasing #Beijing the city's priority over everything else now, it'd be a wonder if #HK can stay on as Asia's art hub.

#UliSigg, the #Swiss collector who donated over 1,500 pieces to the museum broke his silence on these "politicians'" attacks. Art reflects reality, it may make us feel uncomfortable, but it reflects the truth. Why is the HK and #Chinese government so anxious to censor the truth?

TLDR: Because of #TiananmenMassacre, #HongKong has never fully trusted #CCP, fearing that the promise of #democracy will never be realized and our way of life and #freedom will be crushed in the most brutal way. The violent crackdown of 2019's democratic movement and the arbitrary imposition of #nationalsecuritylaw are pretty much our worst nightmare come true.

While an older generation of #HongKongers commemorated #Tiananmen because they felt that those in #Beijing were kin, a young generation of #HKers, many born after 1989, have different reasons to remember the massacre. Instead of feeling bonded by blood to the #Chinese protesters, many "pass down the torch" of June 4th because they believe that history must be preserved, and they recognized that protesters on Tiananmen Square were fighting against the same oppressor, for the same goals - democracy.

To nobody's surprise, #HK's dim-witted puppet government is banning this year's vigil. If the #Chinese government means business about getting [...]

We still enjoy #freedomofspeech and can commemorate #TiananmenMassacre even under the #nationalsecuritylaw - SO THEY SAY. 🙃

The recent crackdown on #AppleDaily, annual #Tiananmen vigil and July 1 march accelerates #HongKong’s fall as a financial centre. Free flow of information and room for creativity were what a financial centre, any centre, needs to prosper but #CCP is smothering both.

"What will happen to #HongKong after 1997" was the question on the minds of many #HongKongers, indeed many people all over the world, after seeing #CCP's massacre of #Tiananmen students in 1989. Events today is the answer to that question, and to the world's tolerance of a malicious, authoritarian regime for decades. And if events in #HK today makes you wonder what will happen to #Taiwan, to the world tomorrow, you'll know whether to trust #Beijing, or continue to support this regime through inaction or not.

The senior members of the Alliance is taken to court Hong Kong time TODAY. Please keep an eye on them!

It's very hard to write a caption for such a traumatic episode of the #HongKong protests, which aftermath continues to be felt today. Only a few years ago, it was impossible to imagine anything so much as violent conflicts happening in a protest in #HK, after all, our protests were known to the world to be peaceful and extremely orderly. But #PolyU, a university in the heart of the city, was literally turned into a warzone, by the unscrupulous #CCP.

We will never forget our history, and history will prove us all innocent.

Literal #MinistryofTruth here. The reason why #CCP is so dead set on distorting the history of #TiananmenSquare? Because it is its greatest sore spot. The entire world witnessed a massacre, but the tyrant is simply incapable of admitting that it has done something horrible and wrong.
