Hong Kong Hypocrisy

I’ve just seen some videos of violence by protestors in Hong Kong. They’ve thrown bricks at police stations, attacked people (inc elderly folks) on the street, harassed women who’ve dared to express anger at the protestors for waving the flag of the British Empire that ravaged their country and their ancestors.
Check out @CarlZha's twitter if you want to see these videos.
Also, the US - which would harshly crack down on such protests if they were happening on their soil - is openly meddling in Hong Kong in support of these protests - see here
Funny how all this is largely ignored in western media?
Meanwhile, the same media will eagerly report on any violence by the Yellow Vest protestors in France, and downplay the state crackdown which has killed and maimed many. And they will eagerly report on (mostly/completely fabricated) ‘Russian meddling’. 
Western MSM = propaganda machine for US Empire/western elite interests.
(NB not saying I have no sympathy for the protests in HK. It’s a difficult situation and I do. Just pointing out the hypocrisies and bias of MSM reporting!).
