Despite our Basic Law that protects freedom of expression, Facebook appears to practice self-censorship over political content in our city. Over the past few days groups that oppose the pro-establishment party (DAB) as well as the League of Social Democrats (LSD) have been closed, some of them with + 100.000 members. So it’s not just the anti-establishment parties that have been targeted. Already blocked in China, Zuckerberg & Co. might have figured it’s best to shy away from any political issues in Hong Kong as well, since it’s pretty obvious Beijing dictates affairs here too. Shame on you.
