My family and I fled Hong Kong six months before the handover back to China and everything my dad predicted would happen came true. I know what it’s like to see your home die at the hands of shit eating dictators and understanding what a real infringement of humans rights can look like. As a Canadian now, it really disgusted me to see people equating to lockdown measures for our own health and well-being to human rights violations. My heart goes out to the people of Iran; hopefully there’s a place where we can donate or do something to help their cause. Fuck dictatorships, fuck religion in politics.
