This is now on Wulumuqi (=Urumqi) lu in #Shanghai. People holding up white sheets of paper. ‘We don’t need to write anything on it. It is a symbol of the revolution of the people’, someone says. (Don’t manage to send videos.)
Witnessed this last Saturday. Girl was violently arrested bc she didn’t want to show her ID card unless the police gave her a reason. (Think she lowered her mask while eating.) What this shows? Girl (from Guangdong) stands up for rights. Police doesn’t know what to so with that.
I’m heading home now. Just want to add how incredible this is. Never seen anything like this in the decade that I report on China. The anger seems too much to crack down on. Wonder what happens next.
Ik zat dus gister in een talkshow met @MarionKoopmans en zie nu alle tweets langskomen. De drek die zij over zich heen krijgt is waanzinnig! Als je verstand van zaken hebt, ga dan in debat. Zo niet, houd lekker voor je wat je allemaal wel niet van haar denkt. Mijn hemel.
