#CulturalRevolution-style Attack on Hong Kong Government Officials
China mouthpieces Ta Kung Pao and Wen Wei Po ran front page article on February 27, 2021 in which it questioned if the newly appointed Secretary of Food and Environmental Hygiene, Vivian Lau Lee-kwan met the requirement of “patriots governing Hong Kong”, a principle described by President Xi Jinping as a bottom line for ensuring the city’s stability.
Lau was accused of having double standards for tolerating political placards made by “black-clad rioters” while quickly removing similar “patriotic” placards from pro-China individuals. The paper also accused Lau’s husband, Chua Hoi-wai, chief executive of the Hong Kong Council of Social Service, for opening its venues to anti-government protesters to take a rest in during 2019’s mass protests.
Executive councilor Regina Ip Lau Suk-yee, a former Administrative Officer, defended Lau against pro-Beijing criticism, likening it to criticisms that prevailed the Cultural Revolution in China.
She called for “Cultural Revolution-style denunciations” to be stopped, urging Beijing loyalists to direct criticisms at issues, and not people.

Hong Kong Police Force Food Deliverer to Read Out Government-banned Protest Slogan
In Hong Kong, the police reportedly "forced" a take-away food deliverer to read out protest slogans from some cards found by the police inside the civilian's wallet.
The food deliverer surnamed Chiu, working for #FoodPanda, revealed to the media that the "trap" set by the police can potentially incriminate him under the #NationalSecurityLaw.
In a video Chiu provided to Apple Daily, four police officers surrounded him, while one of them was holding his wallet. The police took out two cards printed with the slogans “Liberate Hong Kong, Revolution of our times” and “Five demands not one less.”
The police officer then ordered Chiu to read out the slogans, to which Chiu refused fearing that it may violate the national security law for "promoting independence" according to the authorities.
Chiu told Apple Daily that the police officers' behavior was problematic and accused him of "knowingly violating the law" to incite him to read out the slogans, so that he would breach the national security law for subversion.

Pentagon calls remarks on Senkakus' sovereignty an 'error'
U.S. Defense Department spokesman John Kirby said Friday his recent remarks supporting Tokyo's claims over the sovereignty of the Japanese-controlled, China-claimed Senkaku Islands in the East China Sea were an "error" and apologized for any confusion.
"There is no change to U.S. policy regarding the sovereignty of the Senkaku Islands," the press secretary said, apparently referring to Washington's position of neutrality over who has sovereignty over the uninhabited islets.
"I do regret my error," he added.

"Let's Say We're Japanese": Chinese in #Ukraine Fear Retribution after Insulting Posts from #ChineseNetizens
As Russian armed forces invaded Ukraine, numerous Chinese netizens made posts in support of Russia. Some posts even sarcastically said, "beautiful ladies of Ukraine, come to China".
These posts have drawn the ire of the Ukrainian public, according to a video by a Chinese student who said he was living in Ukraine. "They're a bit emotional about this," he said. Chinese living in Kyiv have begun telling others that they're Japanese; "We don't even dare to call ourselves Chinese anymore."
He called on China's "keyboard warriors" to show restraint, and stop offending the Ukrainians.
The student quoted posts made by Chinese netizens, such as: "Good for Ukraine to have a war; the more deaths the better. This way I could have an Ukrainian mistress." Local media have reported about these posts, complete with translations; "basically, all Ukrainians know."
In shelters, locals would ask Chinese students like himself about the posts, and whether Chinese people are really like this. As a result, many of them don't dare to take shelter in the metro stations with other Ukrainians.
"Give us a little chance to survive," he implored his audience in China. He said that when Ukrainians in Kyiv asked Chinese citizens where they are from, "We say we're Japanese. We don't even dare to call ourselves Chinese anymore, all thanks to you. Do you need a wife that badly? You've lost your humanity. So many of them are dying in the war; how dare you say "good for them" because you might get an Ukrainian wife."
With a sigh, he concluded: "If Chinese people here get beaten or shot to death, it will be thanks to you keyboard warriors."
Since Friday, Feb 25, 2022, China's social media giants #Weibo, #WeChat, and #TikTok have begun censoring accounts that made such offensive remarks. Weibo announced that they processed 542 such posts, and deducted social credit scores of 74 accounts. Tiktok said that it had processed 6,400 videos that have violated rules, and terminated 1,620 live streams.

CCP Mouthpiece Warns Against "Sinophobia" as Ukraine Hits Back at Chinese Insults
As the world voices support for #Ukraine, Chinese netizens have poked fun at the situation, suggesting that the war be prolonged and the more attractive ones among Ukraine’s women be “imported” into #China. The remarks have caused anger among Ukrainians, and Chinese students in Ukraine are reportedly trying to pass for Japanese. In defence of the Chinese netizenry, #HuXijin, now a special commentator for the Chinese state tabloid #GlobalTimes, wrote that it is completely Ukraine’s fault if Sinophobia breaks out in the country, asking rhetorically “where in the world Internet [discussions] are thoroughly rational”.
In a Weibo post published on 27 February, Hu says that the Chinese people are generally very friendly to Ukraine and wish Ukrainians peace. But while acknowledging that Chinese netizens need to be reminded to stay calm and refrain from triggering other communities, Hu says “it mustn’t be accepted as a reason for the foreign world to take revenge on Chinese expats”.
“It is a crime for anyone to persecute the Chinese citizens in Ukraine,” he adds, “and it’s nothing short of making himself an enemy of the People’s Republic of China. It definitely won’t end well for [him].”
