One of the aspects of the repression in Hong Kong is the criminalisation of mourning.

An example of the harassment,
Today Bryant went to where Alex Chow Tsz-lok fell to pay his respects & was stopped, not allowed to leave flowers & questioned by police.

Oh okay. So, they just destroyed the fucking entire East Wing of the White House. Sick. Awesome.
Nothing captures the current state of U.S. democracy as accurately as this (real) picture of the White House.

Casually announcing plans to murder American citizens for wrongthink.
My gosh. After the US bombed multiple boats in the middle of the ocean, murdering people on grounds that they were allegedly "carrying drugs," the US Attorney General says "Just like we did with cartels, we're going to take the same approach, President Trump, with Antifa."

Die Reaktionen der organisierten Trumpisten auf die Ermordung von Charlie Kirk zeigen, dass es längst nicht mehr um die Befriedung der Gesellschaft geht, sondern um einen geradezu apokalyptisch begriffenen Endkampf einer machttrunkenen Elite,die die Überwindung der liberalen Demokratie zum Ziel hat.

Just so I'm clear:

TV host says we should kill every homeless person? No big deal

TV host says the right must "go to war" with the left? Pfft.

TV host says the government is cracking down on critics? Well, the government cracks down on him for the criticism.

Free speech, everyone.

Habeck hat dafür gesorgt, dass Deutschlands Energiewirtschaft nicht mehr von Russland erpressbar ist.

Und Habeck hatte begonnen, die Wirtschaft auf eine Zukunft auszurichten, in der auch sie nicht mehr durch die USA erpressbar gewesen wäre.

Warum ist nochmal Merz Kanzler?

Jedes Jahr werden in Folge der Klimakatastrophe die Dürren bedrohlicher, die Bauern hocken auf staubtrockenen Äckern und fordern immer lautstärker Unterstützung. Also dieselben Bauern, die mit Galgen vor der letzten Regierung auffuhren, die ihnen einen kleinen Teil zum Klimaschutz auferlegen wollte.

A reminder that To Kai-wa was jailed for 5 1/2 years for biting off part of a police officer’s finger during a protest. His action sounds awful but look at where the police officer's fingers were at the time -- one in To's eye and another up one of his nostrils as well as the one in his mouth!
