I used to tell my friends that I know I’m old when I ever start reading the political news, having said that, taking a stance and casting an unofficial vote tonight can be regarded as another way of admitting I’m old.
The vote is unofficial because the public poll is not organized by the government and so not legal-binding, some officials even claim that the poll is down right illegal! There were also many conspiracy surrounding the heated event, some of my friends decided not to vote because they don’t want to be tricked into a political game, and some other thinks that the event is nothing more than meaningless political shenanigans.
As for a political dumb ass like me, I simply want to cease the opportunity to voice out my opinion of wishing HK to stay free and democratic. Isn’t this what we were promised by the Basic Law 17 Years ago? There are still 33 years till it runs out!
