Niao Collectiveさんのイラストまとめ

Most of the HK protest art you've seen are probably of our frontliners braving teargas, looking unbeatable, unshakeable, unbreakable. But the truth is HKers are merely human. Many were drowning, in teargas, in tears, in fears. Many are still drowning.

Think back to July 1 2020. It was the first day of a new HK under NSL. HKers had a lot they wanted to say, and unsure whether they were allowed to say it.

... a subject touched on a few times in other HK protest art.

"Not one less..." "We leave together..." The words have added poignancy as by July 1 2019, at least 2 protesters had lost their lives. The moment in LegCo that day was 齊上齊落 all the way.

"Hey, take a look at this on Apple Daily...."

This probably best captures how many of us feel about AD. It made us laugh with how on9 it could be. It made us angry by how trash it could be. And now, just sadness.

"I think... I will miss it a bit."

"Said our goodbye,
Promised to meet again,
We *will* meet again."

🙂 Plays on how in Canto, 'goodbye' - 再見 - literally means 'see again', like 'au revoir'.

More doodles for Apple Daily coming through.

For those wondering, the mongoose on the right is one of the HK pro-democracy movement's Divine Beasts, a Feng Shui -related cuddly mascot that represents getting rid of CCP influence in HK. 😅

Two years ago, on June 9th 2019, more than a million HKers marched for our rights, kicking off the Revolution of Our Times.

We haven't achieved what we wanted.
We've lost freedoms and friends along the way.

But we're still here. Add oil!
