In the past, many Chinese sincerely thought that Western mainstream medias were trustworthy because those medias were believed to be independent and not interfered by the government. This provides an alternative source of information other than the monopolized state owned medias of China. However, as they keep telling lies like calling the violent rioters in Hong Kong as "peaceful pro-democracy supporters", and making the "genocide story in Xinjiang". Most Chinese notice that their intentions are not finding the truth but serving the political agenda for their governments.

@MarkYeung1 You seem to be coming from Hong Kong. On the eve of June 12th, those rioters had already damaging the pavements for getting bricks. On June 12th, they threw bricks to the police so Hong Kong Police had to use force to suppress the mobs. Besides, those mobs destroyed traffic lights. I don't see if there are any relationships between "pro-democracy" and vandalism. You can keep lying, but most of us will keep telling the truth.

@MarkYeung1 If you did not murder anyone one year ago, but you murdered a person 6 months ago, then you would not be considered as a murderer? What kind of logic is that? Please don't hide the evils that you had done and used "pro-democracy" as excuses.

@MarkYeung1 In fact the official medias in China did mention the so-called "peaceful demonstration" in Hong Kong started from 2019 April. Please stop spreading lies!

@MarkYeung1 You better ask :who makes the rankings? I know that recently an American renowned media ranked the US as the best country to deal with Covid 19, in spite of more than 600,000 people died in the pandemic 😢

@MarkYeung1 ... 镜头二：200万人游行？暴徒裹挟香港市民引不满香港现在约有750万人口，反对派会把所有游行人数往大了说，水分是翻两三倍的。他们这样，就是要让一些不明白实际情况的香港市民误以为，“我是不是没有参加？我是不是错过了什么？我是不是成为少数了？”从而产生心理压力。我们在西方媒体和港媒上看到的景象绝对不是真实的，香港很多的民意，在我看来，没有完全被激发出来的。以前，香港民众不敢反抗，因为那些暴徒全副武装，如果看到他们带的工具，你也会不寒而栗。比如钢管、剪刀、尖锐的尖头伞、还有下端尖锐的登山杖。登山杖已被他们抢购一空，你说普通市民谁能不怕？遇到他们的时候，普通市民很多都是默不作声，或者说委屈自己，被逼表态。

@MarkYeung1 At maximum, the street on Hong Kong Island can only contain 580000 people. This means that the protest organizer boosted the actual number at least 4 times. The following passage is quoted from Reuters "The surface area of the main protest route, including start and finish areas, is about 145,000 square metres. Using an average crowd density based on the images above, anywhere from 116,000 to 580,000 could fill that space."

@MarkYeung1 Even the obviously "boosted 2 million people figures", Mainland's media did report on the news. Of course, it used facts and evidence to show that "2 million people" is a lie, but the media did not hide the reports.

@MarkYeung1 The actual number should be something about 330,000 reported by Hong Kong Police, as it falls into the range 110,000 to 580,000 counted by Reuters which used scientific estimation.

@jw7518 You can see that the Chinese official media did say that "2019年4月，香港“陈同佳案”引发“反修例”风波。从最初的示威游行，到现在的暴力乱港，事件逐步升级". It obviously said that at the beginning the protest was not violent, but it escalated later on. If we did not give out evidences to brust their lies, they would keep saying such lies over 1000 times to make it become "true".

@jw7518 You have to understand the tricks played by them. They keep telling lies like "Chinese government did not report peaceful demonstrations" and "2 million people joined the protest", so that they can mess up the facts. For instance, he said "OK, not 2 million, but there were 1.5 million". In fact, even at maximum, the street on Hong Kong Island can contain fewer than 600,000 people. By keep saying the "2 million lie", they can successfully boost the number of protestors for a few times. The correct way to deal with them is to burst their lies and tell them only 330,000 people joining the protest.

@jw7518 So I posted an analysis from Reuters to show that the maximum number of people would be contained on Hong Kong Island's streets is 580,000. Reuters is a British media and it would not be in favor of the Hong Kong government. Its statistics burst the "2 million protestors lie" told by the protest organizer. However, spreading rumors is an easy task but finding evidences to burst the lies is time consuming. Nevertheless, I would still spend time to burst the rumors told by Western medias.

@jw7518 Don't fall into the trap made by that guy. Chinese government did report the "so-called non violent protests" since April 2019. I posted the news on my comments above.

@MarkYeung1 First, there are 7,500,000 people in Hong Kong. Can 500,000 kidnap the will of other citizens in HK? Also, the HK government did give up the extradition bills later. But those rioter still escalated the movement into violent attacks. In fact, people who don't want to be Chinese can use their BNO and migrate to the UK. Nobody stops them to do so. Even if they move to the UK, according to the current laws in Hong Kong, they can still keep their HK residency. I think such arrangement is fair enough. Maybe the first question to those protesters that you should ask is : are you consider yourselves as Chinese?
