RE: Censorship is rising, more recent content related to Hong Kong

in #hongkong5 years ago (edited)

I don't know very well what's going on in Hong Kong, but those videos are cruel

It is incredible to think that the world is like this, not only in Asia are situations like this happening, here in Latin America there is also too much chaos. For example: lately in Colombia there are protests and there are cases like this (sorry, there's only Spanish)

right now Colombia is in curfew (as far as I understand, only its capital)

I think the worst situation was in Chile. There was social repression and curfew not long ago, there were many videos like these:

Source of the videos <--- there are many more videos, if you want to see them you can take a look there, but the webpage is in Spanish

There's too much chaos in the world (or at least I have that impression), it's incredible, but real. At least in Latin America there is no censorship (I suppose because we still don't handle this technology as Asia does), but the aggressiveness and sadness that these situations give are still the same

Sort:  

I guess Chile doesn't have an army of brainwashed citizens who are incapable of using their own brain cells to determine what's right and wrong

Well, as I said, I don't know very well what's happening in Hong Kong and maybe the amount of disaster is much higher than in Chile.

But in those videos there are people who feel, with family and with plans about their future. Although if Chile's army isn't brainwashed, they're still doing the wrong thing, you don't necessarily have to be brainwashed to hurt people who didn't do anything without reason.

I saw videos where they took people to lonely places, shot them in the legs and left them lying there. What normal person would do that?

Anyway, I don't think this is a matter of comparison, it's something that shouldn't happen under any circumstances
