That viral photo of the Hong Kong protests is not what it seems
The problem is that the image was heavily edited -- cropped and mirrored -- to multiply the size of the crowd and make it look perfectly symmetrical. It's also been mislabeled, as the original photo was taken a week earlier at another anti-extradition rally.
Wonder how HK's pan anti-Communists and their backers in the Anglo-American Empire got those ludicrous numbers … one million, two million protesters?
The photo below shows one way. Note how the left side of the scene is an exact mirror image of the right. Magically, everything is doubled, including the crowd size.
Alert Hong Kongers who know their own cityscape would spot the manipulation. But non-HKers hardly stand a chance.
So the march organizers' fictitious figures become immortalized in world history … with a lot of help from their friends in Western MSM.
