Selective silence of social elite is the biggest accomplice of tyranny
(15 Mar) Due to the Wuhan pneumonia outbreak in Hong Kong, the public has become highly aware of health and hygiene, which makes some experts the most credible group in the society. Prof. Yuen Kwok Yung, Microbiology lecturer at HKU, and Prof. Gabriel Leung, dean of medicine at HKU, are two of the most credible members in Carrie Lam’s expert team.
Portrayed as proper and professional through the lens, do they really care about the welfare of Hongkongers as portrayed? Other than seeing what they said, more importantly, we have to see what they did not do and what they deliberately avoided.
//Have they voiced out for any detainees or prisoners in the past nine months?
//Have they performed their duty as JP to speak out for social injustice?
//If they say a word of justice, it would make it to the news, it would put pressure on the regime, it would have left a remark in Hong Kong’s history, yet they chose to stay silent.
//Selective silence and inaction shows that it’s not that they don’t know politics, but in fact, they use their scientific professionalism as their halo to deceive the public’s trust. They are downright propaganda machines.
//When the public was standing up against police brutality, they chose to remain silent. When medics went on strike to protect their health, they chose to side with Carrie Lam. When journalists got attacked reporting the truth, they didn’t dare to make a noise, not a single word on police brutality.
