The Hong Kong protesters are foolish cowards

From The Idiot Factor:

Protests have never been unusual around the world. But what surprises me is the fact that people protesting their governments have called on the US to intervene in their countries internal affairs. That has happenedin Venezuela, here I have seen people on the TV, who are protesting against President Nicolás Maduro, and they have asked the US to invade their country and remove an elected president.

No I see protesters in Hong Kong carrying American flags and asking the US to protect them from their own police. It is outright embarrassing. We seem to  be living in a time when violent protests take place by conservative people act cowardly, expecting “Big Daddy US” to magically come in and save them. These people don’t seem to realize that the US rarely acts on behalf of people in foreign countries. The US, whether troops or sanctions, goes where our so called “interest” lie. US leaders, as Trump, like to talk about supporting democracy and freedom, but what they really support is just their right to make money and they make that money at the expense of other people, in other countries. They take care of US interests and they rarely protect anyone else.

In a major act of hypocrisy, both Democrats and Republicans are pushing through congress a so called “Hong Kong Human Rights and Democracy Act.” According to    

South China Morning Post, while cover the massive protests:

A spokesman for the organiser said: “Our rally is to urge US congressmen to pass the Hong Kong Human Rights and Democracy Act. We also want to show them our stance on freedom.

And US politicians, almost unanimously have passed such a law. According to the BBC:

The bill - which still needs to pass the upper house, the Senate - would mandate an annual review, to see whether Hong Kong had sufficient autonomy from the rest of China to justify its special trading status.

The lower chamber also approved stopping tear gas exports to Hong Kong.

On Monday, Hong Kong protesters took to the streets to support the US bill.

The real hypocrisy here is that the US would NEVER support that kind of protesting here in the US—vandalism and throwing fire bombs at police? No way! All we have to do is look at how protester were treated during the Occupy Movement. They were not violent and yet there was tear gas and mass arrests used to break up a non-violent protest movement here in this country.

For people here at this blog, we are well aware that this country will not do anything to support real democracy. The Hong Kong protesters are naive idiots and cowards. If they really want democracy and freedom, they need to do it on their own and not try and rely on a foreign imperialist power. Unfortunately we live in a time when cowards are rewarded for their deplorable actions.
