Founder of Taiwanese Forum PTT Boycotts Disney's Mulan, Hailing Hong Kong Women as "True Mulans"
Ethan Tu, founder of Taiwan’s AL Lab initiative and forum PTT, announced on 6 September, 2020 that he will resolutely boycott Disney's Mulan starred by Chinese actress Liu Yifei.
Tu pointed out that the true spirit of the heroic Mulan is carried by many women in Hong Kong who took to the streets to defend their homeland, the rule of law and human rights even though they were threatened by police violence.
In Tu's opinion, Chinese actress Liu Yifei, who was openly supportive of the infamously abusive Hong Kong police, was too hypocritical and therefore incapable of portraying the heroine Mulan.
"I will not watch Mulan. For I have watched the real Mulans [in Hong Kong] die for my ideals and freedom for a whole year. I cannot watch the hypocritical patriotic story of becoming a hero."
Tu lamented that the youth took to the streets for Hong Kong, but were threatened and persecuted by the Hong Kong police with sexual violence. Therefore, he could not look at Liu Yifei, who supported Hong Kong Police's indiscriminate violence.
