Talk:Socialist Action (Hong Kong)

NPOV issues, biases sources, unformatted sources and outdated information edit

NPOV issue edit

This article is extremely biased, just from the summary itself...

"They oppose the billionaire-dominated Chinese Communist Party (CCP) dictatorship, which they claim has made China the 'Sweatshop of the World' with one of the most extreme wealth gaps on the planet. They stand for the creation of fighting independent trade unions by Chinese workers to fight against capitalist exploitation and authoritarian rule."

"Socialist Action calls for Hong Kong's undemocratic 'CY' administration to be driven from office. They also criticise the main pan democratic opposition parties in Hong Kong for adopting a timid approach that aims to achieve piecemeal democratic reforms through compromise and negotiation (No source)– a strategy that Socialist Action claims is incapable of success against a dictatorial regime like China's."

"This is because the Chinese regime fears that any slackening of its political control could cause the "dam to burst", inspiring massive popular movements in China that could sweep the regime away."

"Socialist Action plays an active part in many struggles – workers' strikes, environmental protests and campaigns for migrants' rights. It stands for the building of a new working class party drawing support from today's mass struggles as the only way to overcome the resistance of the CCP dictatorship and achieve real democratic change"


This is all non-neutral language!!! It goes against WP:NPV !!!!!


incorrectly formatted / biased sources edit

More than half of the sources listed arent correctly formatted, a large portion are not in English, a couple are dead links.

The sources almost always link to the party's own website, which can be argued as a biased source.

vital information like the party's ideology and political position arent sourced, its date of founding doesnt have a source and its chairperson doesnt have a source!! FIX THIS ASAP!!!

Its outdated! edit

Oh and I forgot to mention how the article itself is outdated, the article says SA wants C Y Leung and his administration to resign, yet CYL hasn't been in office since he left in 2017! This article needs to be put up to date with the current events in HK!!
