The use of organised crime happened on multiple sides of the issues that erupted in 2019. One has to ask why far right Ukrainians were spotted at the protests (sorry - not the best example perhaps given the current situation) it seems unlikely they flew here out of the goodness of their hearts to support democracy.
- hayst4ck 4y ago> it seems unlikely they flew here out of the goodness of their hearts to support democracy. I think you vastly underestimate the power of ideas like "live free or die" and the solidarity of oppressed countries that live next door to fascist authoritarian regimes. I'm a middle class American who wants for nothing and I have given serious contemplation to joining the military to protect Taiwan. When no one is willing to make sacrifices to fight for freedom, everyone will become enslaved. If I won't fight for others, they won't fight for me. I think I'd need a bit more substantiation on "right wing Ukrainians in Hong Kong" to evaluate the point being made.
