TLDR: Shanghai uni singling out LGBT+ students for 'investigation'.

Crackdown or not, isn't it strange to single out a certain group to collect data from?

As a new school term starts, we’re once again reminded of how much has changed in #HongKong. #CCP wants to turn our children and youth into red robots.

Punished for exercising basic rights. #CCP is telling #HongKong that having beliefs is criminal!

It's so ironic that China finally wants to tackle IP violations now.
Did they grow a conscience or they just want to control e-commerce companies?

Why do people become devoted to any community? Because they feel that their actions and presence make an impact there, it gives them a sense of belonging. Since the #CCP has a grip on every facet of life in #China, there is precious little #Chinese people can actually control in real life - political and social participation is at best meaningless, at worst - well, just take a look at #HongKong. One of the reasons people direct their energy to online fan communities is because they don't feel like a stakeholder of their society, celebrity culture is a little like morphine. Its world is not exactly real, but you have a say in it, you feel good, you numb yourself from real life problems. And now #XiJinping is taking that away? Where will a whole generation of people channel their frustration? Is it a time bomb?
