The govt has a narrative to sell and needs masterminds that the 2019 protests didn't really have. They also need to make sure the most active pro-demo voices are locked away permanently.

But yeah, they've also never forgiven Wong for Occupy Central and Demosisto, so this feels personal too.
The very ironic thing here is that Wong had very little to do with the 2019 pro-democracy protests so when you really get down to it, the government is slapping endless sentences on him for what he did in *2014* when he was a teenager
Weekend is here #MilkTeaAlliance & here are the events happening

Joshua Wong, currently jailed over the organisation of primary elections has been charged under the NSL for "Foreign Collusion", it's bullshit but HKSARG will keep adding charges to make sure he doesn't get out.

C'était le visage le plus connu des mouvements de protestation et des manifs monstre à #HongKong depuis le début des années 2010 quand il n'était qu'un adolescent et c'est précisément pour ça que son image et sa voix d'avenir portait. Il risque sa vie en prison

Honestly, just tragic. A society that devours its young has no future but that is what the CCP has in the cards for Hong Kong, while Wong and many nameless others have sacrificed so much to defend their home

subentrato a Nathan Law come presidente di Demosisto

Ivan Lam Long-yin. Co-founder (with Joshua Wong) of Scholarism in 2012. Took over from Nathan Law as chair of this since disbanded Demosisto. Jailed twice previously (inc. for his role in the 2019 protests), the 29 year old was arrested again in July on suspicion of funding Law's activities abroad.

Remember when Agnes Chow gave up her British passport/citizenship in order to run for office, only for the authorities to deem that her party, Demosisto, had a political platform that violated Hong Kong's electoral laws (as it advocated self-determination for Hong Kong)?

Update: a fifth arrest related to this today. Another ex-Demosisto member, Calvin Chu Yan-ho. At Hong Kong International Airport, where he was trying to catch a flight to Taiwan. :(
Only in Hong Kong: people operating a shopping app getting arrested for national security law violations. And, no, even after a good night's sleep, it still doesn't make much sense to me.

Tiffany Yuen Ka-wai. Former Demosisto party member and district councillor who's one of the HK47 arrested on February 28th, 2021, denied bail and thus currently behind bars. It broke my heart to learn that she had been placed in solitary confinement for a time for having hugged a fellow prisoner. 😢

この夏の終わり、香港の人たちはしばらくしまい込んでいた感情をかき乱される出来事が続いた。民主派を象徴する人物たちに、相次いで「香港国家安全維持法」(国安法)関連の有罪判決が下ったからだ。 8月21日、「香港市民支援愛国民主運動聯合会」(支聯会)の元幹部3人が「煽動顛覆国家政権罪」に問われていた裁判で、有罪判決が言い渡された。そして9月3日には、かつて学生政治団体「香港衆志 Demosisto」の...

Wong rose to prominence in 2014 as one of the leaders of the Umbrella Movement, a mass protest calling for free elections.

He co-founded a political party called Demosisto with activist Nathan Law and was also at the forefront of Hong Kong's pro-democracy protests in 2019
