HK was hugely coordinated though.

If it was in another country that wasn’t an oppressive autocracy, it would probably have been very effective.

Edit: hey downvote if you want, but tell me something like this doesn’t take coordination:

Any time I see my kid’s name on the credits it’s always abbreviated KDC, but it still brings a tear to my eye.

Reminds me of Amelie

Smog would be a beast

This is pretty much what I said when I came out as asexual to my fam. To which my dad said, “so… you’re gay.” I shrugged and said yeah sure. I’d rather be labeled that than forced into comphet.
