Fuckkeins again...why can't they go back to where they come from?
.
.
terrible. people suffering still want to beat them.
as hokkien, i apologize on behalf of other hokkiens who don't beat people up. as for those fuckers they can go hang. bring a bad name to Hokkiens.
HK MTR just announced that Hokkiens were attacking passengers with hammers. It caused the miscommunication that resulted in HK police raiding the train stations, thinking the attackers were the protesters.
No need to apologize. U can help by not taking sides. Just be neutral. I believe alot of hongkies won't support the demonstrators but they also won't help the chicoms put the demonstrators down. Tat why it's easier for chicoms to hire fuckein triads to do the chicom dirty work. But I feel the real disgrace to the cantos are the HK police for ganging up with the white shirts to cause problems or instigating the attacks like the Molotov cocktails etc.
and i am not. political matters are beyond me. I don't like to see people being hurt. but i will say that if hongkies want freedom from china they should find a way to get it. that's all.
Chicom too powderful...but at least they willing to take a stand.

Beijing’s loyalists from Fujian province vow to beat up anti-extradition protesters in Hong Kong
On August 5, about two dozen Fujianese picked a fight with anti-extradition protesters in North Point. Screen capture from Youtube video.
A large number of residents of Fujian, a province on the southeast coast of China, have announced they will be travelling to Hong Kong to beat up anti-extradition protesters during protests in the next few days.
Messages about the recruitment of cross-border attackers have spread all over the Chinese social media platforms WeChat and Weibo in the past week. Comments and reactions suggest such an aggressive move is being praised as ‘heroic’ by large numbers of mainland Chinese citizens.
In Hong Kong, local residents are fearful, as they have not seen many measures taken by Hong Kong authorities to stop the foretold criminal acts, except notices posted on residential buildings instructing residents near protest areas not to go out and to shut their apartment windows on August 11.
Notice issued by Police Traffic Department reminding residents to stay away from protests and shut the windows to prevent tear gas from entering their apartment. Image taken by Oiwan Lam.
Mob attacks in Tsuen Wan and North Point on August 5
After the mob attacks on anti-extradition protesters in Yuen Long on July 21, various media outlets reported that the China’s Liaison Office in Hong Kong had encouraged pro-Beijing forces to block district-level protests in a gathering with village heads.
Despite public outrage, similar mob attacks have been observed in at least two other districts, including Tsuen Wan in the western part of Kowloon, and North Point in the eastern part of Hong Kong Island during the general strike, and in various district protests on August 5.
In Tsuen Wan, a mob wearing blue T-shirts was spotted on the streets at around 8pm, carrying sticks and other weapons. Upon receiving the news, a large group of anti-extradition protesters rushed to the spot and chased them away. But at around 11pm, when the majority of the protesters had left the scene, a group armed with weapons appeared on the streets to pick a fight and a 18-year-old man wearing a black T-shirt was chopped on his head, arm and leg by two white-shirted thugs on the sidewalk. Passers-by came to the rescue and the incident triggered yet another street fight between protesters and thugs. Three people suspected of starting the attack were beaten, tied up by protesters and left on the street for an ambulance and police to pick up.
In North Point, a group of thugs was spotted at a street corner waiting for protesters to pass by and pick a fight. But they were outnumbered by protesters and defeated quickly. @jesuispopple posted this video of the confrontation on Twitter:
In both incidents, police officers were absent from the streets, and in the case of the North Point, police officers only arrived at the conflict scene four hours after the crowd had already dispersed. The police authorities later stated that the police station in North Point had been blocked by protesters, though in Hong Kong every district has a police station and it takes less than 15 minutes for another district to send backup forces.
Beijing's Fujianese loyalists mobilize on WeChat and Weibo
Residents from North Point and Tsuen Wan quickly identified the attacking thugs as Fujianese, as they spoke the Hokkien or Minnan dialect.
Hong Kong is a immigrant society and the majority of people who move to settle in the territory come from mainland China. About 1.68 million of them are Fujianese immigrants and their descendants. Both Tsuen Wan and North Point have become traditional residential districts for people who identify as Fujianese and migrated to Hong Kong in 1980s and 1990s. This community maintains close links with their relatives back in the province of Fujian in mainland China. Such communities also socialize in Hong Kong through village or town-level kinship associations called Tongxianghui, through which they connect with compatriots from the same hometown.
After the handover of Hong Kong to China in 1997, Beijing started considering and using Tongxianhui from Fujian and other provinces in China as a key mechanism for exercising political influence in Hong Kong, particularly during elections. Among hundreds of Tongxianhui in Hong Kong, the ones from Fujian province are the most loyal to Beijing. However, second- and third-generation Fujianese in Hong Kong have distanced themselves from Beijing’s political control, and some have joined the anti-extradition protests.
Interestingly, the current director of the China's Liaison Office in Hong Kong, Wang Zhiming, is Fujianese. He graduated from Fujian Normal University, and became a member of the Fujian Provincial Committee of the Chinese Communist Party (CCP). He then became the director of the China's Liaison Office in Hong Kong in 2017.
After the clashes between Fujianese mobs and anti-extradition protesters took on August 5, a large number of mobilization messages appeared on WeChat groups. But Fujianese supporters of the anti-extradition protests leaked the message on the Reddit-like LIHKG and Facebook. Below is a screen capture of a message posted on a Fujianese WeChat group:

Chats about the mobilization of Fujianese “fighters” to Hong Kong also circulated on Weibo. Large numbers of netizens do in fact cheer on this “patriotic act”. Here is a typical post on Weibo:

Urgent notice: The head of Hong Kong JinjiangTongxianghui Shi Nengshi and the head of Hong Kong Anhai association Yan Kangcheng made a joint statement: last night about 20 patriotic Jinjiang fellows fought with 2 to 3,000 thugs. They were outnumbered and forced to retreat. They have not been injured and managed to hurt 30 thugs. To prevent further harassments from thugs, I would invite 500 young fighters from Anhai to support Jinjiang fellows. We would have 3,000 people in the frontline and 1,500 people to back them up. I will reserve rooms in Sheraton and Shangrila hotels for our patriotic Anhai fellows to enjoy. Please sign up for the event.
An online poster of “patriotic Fujianese” has gone viral on major social media platforms in mainland China.Chats about the mobilization of Fujianese “fighters” to Hong Kong also circulated on Weibo. Large numbers of netizens do in fact cheer on this “patriotic act”. Here is a typical post on Weibo:
#福建人打废青# 福建人真的很难，要牵制台湾，要抵御台风，要开渔船去钓鱼岛绕圈，要防广东人的捕食，现在还要赶着去教育香港废青。之前有英勇的元朗人民组成白衫军，现在有福建人组成蓝衫军，反击爆徒的力量在壮大。如果有人把香港比喻成人体，那废青就是侵入肌体的病毒，这些英勇的人民便是白红胞，只有白细胞多了，才能将病毒消灭完，吞噬掉。这里真的要福建人致敬，对徒爆徒绝不要手软。
#Fujianese beat up young losers# Fujianese have a very difficult life. They have to struggle with Taiwan [Fujian is located across the strait of Taiwan main island, and people speak the same Min-nan Chinese language]. They have to fight typhoons [Fujian is located in a typhoon-prone area]. They have to defend the Diaoyu Islands [also known as Senkaku Islands, a disputed territory between Japan and China]. They have to compete with Guangdong province, and now they have to educate Hong Kong young losers. Previously, Yuen Long villagers courageously formed a white-shirt army, now Fujianese are forming a blue-shirt army to fight against the thugs. If we compare Hong Kong with a human body, the young losers are the virus that invades the human body, the courageous people are the white and red cells. We need more white cells to defeat the virus, and to swallow them up. We have to pay tribute to the Fujianese people, don’t be soft handed.
Another commenter said on Weibo:食国之粮，护国家安全如果有需要，别说福建人，全国人民都会买票去香港，给港独分子好好上一课。
The nation has fed you. Protect national security. If needed, not only Fujianese, but people from the whole country can buy tickets to Hong Kong to teach the pro-Hong Kong independence thugs a lesson.
As a result of censorship, the majority of mainland Chinese people know very little about the anti-extradition protests. They believe that the current protest is a pro-Hong Kong independence color revolution sponsored by foreign forces.Both local media outlets and the police authorities were notified of the Fujianese plan to pick fight with protesters. The only authority that can stop the massive street fight, however, is China's Liaison Office in Hong Kong.

A Look At Some Of the Pro-Beijing Neighborhoods In Hong Kong

9(MDAxODMzOTM1MDEyMTY4Mzc5OTliNTMwMg004))
MARY LOUISE KELLY, HOST:
In Hong Kong, the young protesters have a lot of support among residents. They are united in what they see as a fight against an erosion of civil liberties by Beijing's hand. There are, though, some neighborhoods in the city that do not welcome the protesters. NPR's Anthony Kuhn visited one of them.
ANTHONY KUHN, BYLINE: I'm in Hong Kong's North Point district right now, and there are a lot of police and journalists staked out because they've heard rumors that a large number of mainland Chinese have come from Fujian province to Hong Kong to try to attack protesters.
UNIDENTIFIED POLICE OFFICER: (Foreign language spoken).
KUHN: Policemen keep order at an intersection on a tense afternoon. Men wearing stickers with Chinese flags are waiting for protesters to march through. A banner over the street lets marchers know they're not welcome here.
Many of the residents of this working-class neighborhood were born in Fujian province a few hundred miles northeast of here and immigrated to Hong Kong beginning in the 1960s. It's one of several politically conservative, pro-Beijing neighborhoods around the city.
Down the street, I meet Xiao Yongli, who was born in Fujian province in 1955 and then moved to Hong Kong to work in construction. He says people here are so angry at the black-clad young protesters they can't even sleep.
XIAO YONGLI: (Through interpreter) If those people dare to come here tonight, something big can happen. Everyone here is like a soldier. Men and women, young and old, we're all prepared.
KUHN: Echoing China's government, Xiao believes that the U.S. is behind the Hong Kong protests, stirring up chaos in an attempt to keep China down.
XIAO: (Through interpreter) You want to do business with us? Sure, let's do it. We'll both benefit. But don't come over here making trouble. The U.S. wants to wipe out the Communist Party, but it can't.
KUHN: Police corner a teenager in a Fujian T-shirt outside a restaurant. They question him in Mandarin, the main dialect on the mainland. He produces what looks like a mainland Chinese ID card, suggesting he's not a local resident.
"What's going on here? Who are you?" - one cop yells in Mandarin as the kid's father comes out to rescue him. An officer gives the kid a few stern words and then lets him go. Later that afternoon, police block off both ends of the protest route through North Point.
ROGER NG: The protesters are not coming to North Point.
KUHN: Civil servant Roger Ng is standing just outside the police roadblocks.
NG: They decide not to come because the Fujian people and the people coming from China.
KUHN: Many accuse the police of cracking down on the protesters while turning a blind eye to the pro-Beijing residents. Ng doubts the Fujianese were acting on their own, although he admits he doesn't have any hard evidence.
NG: I assume they are hired by the Communist Party or Hong Kong government or the Hong Kong police. They hire these people from Fujian, China.
KUHN: I asked Xiao Yongli, the immigrant construction worker, whether people had come from Fujian province to attack the protesters.
XIAO: (Through interpreter) That's what some folks say. We can't shut them up, right?
KUHN: Last week, a wild brawl broke out in North Point between protesters and locals armed with poles. This time, a few journalists say they were attacked by locals. A few arrests are made, but it seems that a major clash is averted.
