Ok, I do see property being defaced and the airport being occupied. You are not the MSM, so, tell me... who are the people doing this then?

And please tell me your reliable source for your answer. This is NOT a trick question. I really want to know.

“who are the people doing this then?”

Very small subset of all the people who’ve demonstrated over the past Years and recent months.

Who they are is a question. Are they part of the actual movement? Or are they opportunist youth who see a chance at holliganism? Are they agents trying to stir up trouble?

No one knows. I’d say maybe a mix. And what damage they’ve done has been way less than our leftists do in a day when there’s one of those WTO or G7 meetings here or in Western Europe.

The point, though, is these are few and far between incidents that pale in number compared the the number of Hong Kongers who’ve participated and the number of demonstrations that have taken place.

This is why it is a false narrative to present what vandalism has occurred as representative or even of any real significance in the overall movement.

As far as the airport, it’s very questionable that it needed to be shut done because a bunch of teenagers and twenty-somethings put up posters and handed out pamphlets for travelers to see.

I think shutting it down was a counter strategy on the part of the communists for optics, as our creepy media call it.
