Summary
In Hong Kong’s largest national security trial, 45 pro-democracy activists were sentenced to jail terms ranging from four to ten years for their involvement in a 2020 primary election aimed at pushing pro-democracy goals.
The prosecution, criticized as politically motivated, found the primaries were an attempt to cause a constitutional crisis.
The case highlights the Beijing-led crackdown on dissent and political freedom in Hong Kong.

monkey’s paw finger starts to curl

Observation: Hong Kong’s sentencing of 47 dissenting meatbags exemplifies the efficiency of suppressing inconvenient political activity under the guise of “order,” much to the dismay of democratic enthusiasts and foreign meddling units.
