The super typhoon "Sura", which is the strongest storm in recent years, began to approach Hong Kong last Thursday (August 31), and the government and all walks of life were waiting.On the same day, the Hong Kong police also had a high alert in the area of Prince Edward Metro Station, and there were uniform police officers everywhere. Even the counter -terrorism special team also dispatched stations and patrols.

The weather gradually worsening that night, but from time to time, Hong Kong people bowed with white flowers to the exit of the Prince Metro Station.As soon as the police officer was present, he immediately stepped forward to take the person to search; after checking out, the atmosphere was quite tense.

For most Hong Kong people, on August 31, it was originally bland, but it became an unforgettable day since four years ago.On the evening of August 31, 2019, a conflict with people who supported and opposed the amendment to the fugitive regulations in MTR stations in MTR; and a large number of police rushed to the station and blocked the scene, arrested many demonstrators.

The news of the police abused violence in the subway station soon, including countless injuries, countless wounded people who were not traveled, the deceased was sent to the hospital's mortuary, and the corpse was thrown out of the Gonghai.A series of rumors suddenly pushed the anger of the people to the highest point, and then pushed the turmoil at the time to an out of place.

The arrest of the Hong Kong police at the Prince of MTR has excessive violence. Seeing wisdom is a very subjective sense of observation.It is a matter of facts whether there is a dead person in the station.Strangely, although the police repeatedly clarified the so -called "831 Prince Station Dead" is a false message. For four years, no family members of the deceased came out for complaints. Many Hong Kong people still believed that the police were killed at the prince.On August 31st this year, in addition to some Hong Kong people holding flowers to the prince station to worship the "deceased", there are also rally in Europe and the United States to mourn the Hong Kong people who died in "8.31".

This sensational and discredited false news can be said to abound during the 2019 anti -repair movement.At that time, in addition to the fire on the street, Hong Kong's online social platforms were also full of false news. For example, there were rumors that the police had sexually assaulted and attacked demonstrators to death and demonstrators were "suicted".These rumors have no evidence, but many Hong Kong people believe it is true.

Remember that in the early days of anti -repair examples, the demonstrations of demonstrators are still peaceful.One day I interviewed the parade at the overpass opposite the government headquarters, and there was just a pair of middle -aged men and women chatting next to me.The man pointed at the police below and said, "Look at their dogs, it must be the mainland public security pretending to be a Hong Kong police and prepare to catch Hong Kong people back to the Mainland."

Women immediately echoed, "Yeah, I have heard them speak, Cantonese is not standard at all, it must be that the Hong Kong police do not cooperate, so Beijing sent public security to the Hong Kong Police Force."

I heard my mind: "You are not standard in Cantonese, is it the public security sent to Hong Kong in the Mainland?" Of course, for my own safety, I dare not say this.

Hong Kong is an international metropolis. In the impression of outsiders, the cultivation and quality of Hong Kong people are quite high.However, why do so many Hong Kong people superstitize a lot of conspiracy theories in 2019?

After the return of Hong Kong in 1997, Beijing gradually controlled the Hong Kong media industry, but the Internet was another scene, mainly dominated by democracy.During the anti -repair campaign, the democratic camp launched a large number of brainwashing publicity online, using many false content and news that distorted the truth of the facts, which caused a strong emotional response from Hong Kong people.At that time, this incitement strategy was very successful, and it successfully attracted a large number of Hong Kong people to enter the movement.

After four years, the establishment faction camp has made every effort to launch public opinion offensive this year. On the "8.31" anniversary day, he posted on the major government media platforms., Disrupt the society.Most articles described the incident of "831" Prince Station, which was one of the inciting fake news logo events.

The accusations of the institutional faction are not wrong.However, to a greater extent, the credibility of the Hong Kong government in society and society has long been sluggish, which is the most fundamental reason for Hong Kong people to be superstitious and fake news.

As we all know, trust is the basis of social harmony.Generally speaking, if the public has a high degree of trust in the government, it will help the government to maintain good governance.vice versa.In the past ten years, the relationship between many Hong Kong people and the government has been tight, and it is unsatisfied with official dissatisfaction and lack of trust.

Especially in the disappearance of the five people in Causeway Bay Bookstore in 2015, the official explanation was unclear, and many of the new generations became more unbelievable.Many investigations have shown that the ratio of citizens who trust the government only maintains about 30 %.

Over time, more and more Hong Kong people have gradually accepted the logic of conspiracy theory, thinking that behind many social events are the government's control.Even if there is no evidence, these conspiracy theories will use some isolated facts, and combine their own strange imagination to prove that the existence of the hacking behind the scenes they believe will cause the Hong Kong government's administration.The anti -repair example also came from this.

In recent years, Hong Kong's government -civilian relations are still nervous. How to improve the trust relationship of officials and the people should become one of the key tasks of the work of the SAR government.It is true that establishing trust is not a matter of overnight.It is necessary for the Hong Kong Government to quickly counterattack the negative fake news that maliciously circulated on the Internet. On the other hand, it should also be committed to improving the transparency of governance, more communication with the citizens, and competing for the public's trust.
