Before going to court, all of them were mentally prepared to be in jail.
Four members of the Civic Party, Li Yuxin, Guo Jiaqi, Tan Wenhao and Yang Yueqiao, were charged. In the feudal era, there is the saying that loyalty and filial piety are difficult to complete, meaning that the service of the country and the care of the Family, sometimes can not be two, the only way to sacrifice one side, and there is no choice but to sacrifice themselves and their families.
It was also touching to see C.J. Sham and Huang Biyun, who met before entering the courtroom. C.J. Sham took the initiative to apologize to Huang Biyun, saying that there was a lot of suspicion and mistrust in the democratic camp in the movement, and that “the League of Social Democrats is one of those who snipe at the Democratic Party all day long”. He apologized to Huang Biyun on the spot, saying “the Democratic Party is the first one I need to speak to …… hope you can forgive me for my impulsiveness at the Time“, and the two hugged each other.
Before Sham Aohui was imprisoned, his new wife encouraged Hong Kong people: the worse the cards are, the more you have to give heart to play.
It’s so touching to see these reports. This is our brother and sister! This is what we Hong Kong people are!
The Chinese Communist Party is overriding Hong Kong with the National Security Law, the democrats are suffering from repression, and international solidarity is not actually helping us. It can be expected that in the foreseeable future, we will suffer unprecedented bad luck, and we will have to make sacrifices and suffer hardships. We all understand this outcome, but are we going to accept our fate?
We have only two choices. One is to give up our pursuit, accept and get used to the ravages of the Chinese Communist Party, and be a submissive people who have wronged future generations and history, just like many mainlanders whom we have always despised. The other choice is that we do not accept our fate, we do not admit defeat, we have a bad hand, but we still have to play seriously.
Cen Zijie apologized to Huang Biyun before he was imprisoned, a self-reflection from the heart. In front of the strong and barbaric Chinese Communist Party, what can we not reconcile between our own hands and feet? We have the same ideals, the same will, the same pain, and the same anger, so what else is there to separate? What else is there to be considered?
I don’t know what she has said or done to make many of her brothers and sisters unhappy, but to this day, if she is going to jail, she is not going to jail for her own benefit, she is suffering from a pain that we on the outside cannot bear for her, she can only face her own suffering journey with grace. I admire her for this alone, and I believe that her reconciliation with Zijie Cen was sincere and noble.
By the same token, I call on all parties to put aside their differences, to be understanding and tolerant of each other, and to be united in their gunsightedness on all topics that cause disputes within the democratic camp, all internal disputes and mutual targeting. What I dislike most is the kind of bigots who think they are great and heroic, and that everyone else is a straw man traitor.
Sham’s apology is a sign of high moral character, a sign of strong will and broad-mindedness, a sign of the moral standards of Hong Kong people, and a sign of hope for our democratic movement.
It is normal to have arguments within the democratic camp, but please use goodwill and constructive attitude, through mutual communication and discussion to solve, what can be solved to achieve consensus, what can not be solved to retain their own. If you go this way and I go that way, we will eventually climb to the top of the mountain from different directions, instead of fighting halfway up the mountain and then rolling down the mountain.
Some people sarcastic Zhou Ting tears in the courtroom, I really blush for such people. A girl because of aggrieved, suffered unwarranted torture, if her inner injustice momentary feelings, then what is worthy of criticism? Even The Japanese, who have nothing to do with us, feel bad for Zhou Ting, so should we not be indifferent to her suffering? Can’t you treat your brothers and sisters with a kinder, more generous, more understanding attitude? I don’t know if the person who said that will be able to laugh when it is his turn to go to court, when it is his turn to go to jail?
Seeing how these leading figures of the democratic camp behaved before they went to jail, I felt that hope was still alive, no one was disillusioned, no one was demoralized, and everyone was cheering each other on and keeping up their fighting spirit. They may have to face imprisonment for a year or two, three or five years. While they are suffering from the loss of freedom, what we have to consider is how to take up their burdens and carry on the path.
What is the greatest fear of the Chinese Communist Party? The greatest fear is that we will not break up, we will not retreat, we will not die. We just have to do what they are afraid of, what they don’t want us to do.
The cards in our hands are bad, and it’s not our fault that they are bad, it’s the fate we must face. No matter how capable we are, we cannot control everything. When bad luck comes, we have to endure it, and when it passes, it will pass. We have to work together with these 47 democratic soldiers to overcome this bad luck, no matter how we play it, we have to play this bad deck of cards seriously.
