A high level takeaway from this excellent and thorough investigation is just how much folks are willing to sell out their own for the right price, and also how little Chinese govt gives a shit about the wellbeing of the diaspora that it claims as its own far-flung children.

拒绝认罪被重判七年的香港记者何桂蓝：真正定义我们身份的，不是苦难本身，而是我们面对苦难的方式。
何桂蓝（Gwyneth Ho Kwai-lam，1990年8月24日生），香港记者与民主派政治人物，被称为“立场姐”。她因参与2020年立法会民主派初选，被控“串谋颠覆国家政权”，是“47人案”中唯一既不认罪、也不求情的被告。2024年11月19日，她被香港法院判处有期徒刑七年，现羁押于大榄女惩教所。
在宣判当天，何桂蓝以粤语和英语发表声明，强调自己坚持不认罪、不求情，是为了捍卫61万名参与初选的香港选民的政治表态。她说：“真正定义我们身份的，不是苦难本身，而是我们面对苦难的方式。”

holy shit, I hadn't heard they found a MingKwai!
A Facebook post unearthed a legend: the lost MingKwai typewriter, designed by Lin Yutang in 1947, resurfaced in a NY basement. Hailed as a marvel yet dismissed as a failure, its rediscovery revives debates over innovation, identity, and what it means to be Chinese, writes @yangyangcheng.bsky.social.

The truth is, there was nothing for Zelensky to goof up. Trump never had any intention of supporting Ukraine, except in return for his share of the spoils when Ukraine ultimately surrendered. Trump wants Ukraine to be defeated, he just doesn't want it to be seen as a defeat for Trump.

Russia does not want to end the war, and the Trump administration has shown no ability to induce Russia to end the war. And so, predictably, the Trump administration blames the victim, blames Ukraine.
