Hong Kong riots

support for the riots is not "support of anti-censorship". it had nothing to do with censorship. a brief summary of how things began:

1. a man murdered his pregnant girlfriend while on holiday in taiwan
2. taiwan wanted the man extradited to face charges but hong kong did not have an extradition treaty with taiwan
3. an extradition bill is introduced in hong kong listing 46 crimes for which extradition may be requested by taiwan, macau, and the PRC. nine crimes listed were financial (these were later removed)
4. angry rich kids realized they would not be able to commit the same financial crimes their parents did

it was never about being censored. it was about wanting to continue to exploit others without consequence.

protonmail didn't just "come out and support" the color revolution by merely making a statement. i'm not making the assertion that their support means that they are a honey pot. i am asserting, however, that their support means that, unlike their claims, they are decidedly not "pro-freedom" (unless, of course, their definition of "freedom" is getting away with murder).

dess you recommend protonvpn but like... protonmail ~~takes money from~~ gives money to CIA-backed orgs & talks about "freeing" hong kong...

also what about git hosting? i see this is on github pages (which is mad convenient, no doubt) but is there a hosting provider you recommend?
