sure, i can even give you the relevant quote from the comment you’re referencing.
“…almost daily protests and resistance actions…”
“…almost daily…” means something happening almost every day.
so if you were eating spaghetti Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday, Friday, Saturday and Sunday, you’d be eating spaghetti every day.
but if you ate spaghetti Monday, Tuesday, skipped Wednesday, and then ate spaghetti Thursday, Friday, Saturday and Sunday, you’d be eating spaghetti almost every day.
now replace spaghetti with protests and resistance actions.
“protests” are public demonstrations of resistance against a policy (holding a sign, chanting, sitting on the roadway)
resistance actions don’t necessarily imply a public aspect (graffiti, coordinating a protest, wearing a mask)
I mean you say that but Hong Kong got it pretty hard.
HK is still being invaded, and everything I wrote above is still correct.
HK citizens are still resisting, they have almost daily protests and resistance actions; xi is in no way ruling with an iron fist.
he is actively losing his grip.
can you elaborate on “daily protests”? i feel like things are pretty calm now after national security law passed.
