The epidemic followed the turmoil of Anti-Extradition Law Amendment Bill Movement, and it naturally became a tool for the government to suppress crowds. Even though Hong Kong has been free from the epidemic for nearly two months, there are still restrictions on gatherings of 4 people in outdoor public places, but there is no specific restriction on public transportation. Indoors can even have unlimited people, and tour groups can also have 30-100 people. This should be A policy beyond logic, right? ! … 

The epidemic has become a major problem threatening human survival. All systems have become extremely fragile, and distance has blocked the transmission of human emotions. Those in power still turn it into an aid to power, making the rights of the people even weaker. The world is chaotic, and how will the future survival mode of mankind change?
