How the US Government funded Design Democracy Facebook account was used to support the Occupy Central protests after 28 September 2014

The US Government funded Design Democracy Internet Portal included a website and the use of assorted social media platforms including Facebook, Twitter, YouTube and others to share information and help coordinate actions during Occupy Central.

These are posts from the Design Democracy Hong Kong Facebook account from after 28 September 2014, after the protesters confronted the police.

It is also important to remember, all of these messages and all of this advice was funded by the US Government.
