Don't argue with people to convince them they're wrong, because that'll never work. Instead, give ways to nudge them along the path you want them to take, if you want practical results. grist.org/extreme-weather/co…

Unable to log in to @Coast_Capital since the switch from 7-digit PINs to passwords. The reset username/password function doesn't work. Waited hold for 1.5 hours this morning, and then again this afternoon before being unexpectedly disconnected. Time to find a new bank, I think.

Watching the fate of Hong Kong people being decided in Beijing tonight was like watching the Tiananmen Massacre in Beijing in 1989--that same feeling of powerlessness, the sadness, about the rights of people being trampled upon.

It’s in the best interest of all for #China & the U.S. to have a balanced relationship.
But that will not be possible if it requires ignoring or silently accepting repeated violations of their commitments on #HongKong’s autonomy & attacks on basic rights rubio.senate.gov/public/inde…

Beijing’s announcement of yet another attempt to bring an end to the “one country, two systems” framework in #HongKong is deeply alarming. Attempting to circumvent the HK legislature shows a complete disrespect for the rule of law.

POLICE state:
The police broke into a private property, conducted stop and search with this manner. You are ordered to kneel down even you are just trying to go home. Is that rule of law?
Clearly, it’s the police who destroyed our system.

Beijing’s intentions are on display in Hong Kong: it seeks to dominate the city, the region and ultimately the international system. Make no mistake: Chinese domination is a direct threat to US security & prosperity

The NBA offers a formal statement kowtowing to China on Hong Kong.
I’m disgusted.
If you care about democracy, freedom, and American values, let the @NBA know how you feel.
