Oriental\u2019s editorial repeats its usual racist slurs against \u201cfake refugees\u201d but then sinks to a new low point even for the gutter press, saying that, \u201cif refugees asked to be kissed, or even to take things further, Sally Tang Mei-ching would consent and probably enjoy it.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>This newspaper has spearheaded the racist smear campaign against refugees, which prompted more than 200 to protest on 30 April. It supports CY Leung\u2019s government and wants to use racist lies to divert attention in the upcoming elections away from real issues such as the lack of a pensions system, affordable housing and democracy. The right-wing press has a track record of denigrating female activists especially using sexism in an attempt to bully women from playing a leading role in social movements. This attack will not succeed; we intend to reply with more protests against the racist sexist right-wing media.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-12585\" src=\"http:\/\/media.chinaworker.info\/2016\/04\/refugee430-3.jpg\" alt=\"refugee430-3\" width=\"500\" height=\"298\" srcset=\"https:\/\/media1.chinaworker.info\/2016\/04\/refugee430-3.jpg 500w, https:\/\/media1.chinaworker.info\/2016\/04\/refugee430-3-300x179.jpg 300w, https:\/\/media1.chinaworker.info\/2016\/04\/refugee430-3-92x55.jpg 92w, https:\/\/media1.chinaworker.info\/2016\/04\/refugee430-3-310x185.jpg 310w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 500px) 100vw, 500px\" \/><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Socialist Action statement Pro-government newspaper Oriental Daily has made a disgraceful sexist attack on Socialist Action\u2019s chairperson Sally Tang Mei-ching<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":12,"featured_media":12584,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_exactmetrics_skip_tracking":false,"_exactmetrics_sitenote_active":false,"_exactmetrics_sitenote_note":"","_exactmetrics_sitenote_category":0,"tdm_status":"","tdm_grid_status":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[133,124],"tags":[],"class_list":{"0":"post-12609","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-hong-kong","8":"category-news"},"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.3 -
