Amnesty International’s analysis shows that 16 people have since been arrested for sedition under Article 23. Five of them were officially charged under the law, and the other 11 were released without charge. None of those arrested is accused of engaging in violence, while the authorities have accused two of them of <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/inciting" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>inciting</span></a> violence without yet disclosing any details.</p><p>"Three of the charged individuals – after facing around three months’ pre-trial detention – were convicted for, respectively, wearing a T-shirt and <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/mask" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>mask</span></a> printed with protest slogans; <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/criticizing" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>criticizing</span></a> the government <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/online" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>online</span></a>; and writing protest <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/slogans" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>slogans</span></a> on bus seats. They were sentenced to between 10 and 14 months in prison.</p><p>"The remaining two charged people have been held in detention awaiting trial since November 2024 and January 2025, respectively. They are accused of publishing '<a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/seditious" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>seditious</span></a>' posts on social media platforms. </p><p>Article 23 entrenches denial of bail</p><p>"The presumption against bail in national security cases, originally imposed by the <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/Beijing" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Beijing</span></a>-enacted <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/NationalSecurityLaw" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>NationalSecurityLaw</span></a> (<a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/NSL" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>NSL</span></a>), has now been extended to offences under Article 23. Among the five individuals charged under Article 23, the two who applied for bail had their applications denied because the magistrate believed they may 'continue to commit acts endangering national security' – the same reasoning used to deny bail to others prosecuted under the NSL, including newspaper founder <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/JimmyLai" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>JimmyLai</span></a> and opposition politicians.</p><p>"The remaining 11 individuals arrested under Article 23 are variously accused of publishing 'seditious' posts, commemorating the 1989 <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/Tiananmen" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Tiananmen</span></a> crackdown and spreading 'disinformation'. Despite having been released by the police without official charge, they remain at risk of prosecution at any time because Article 23 does not impose a time limit on bringing criminal charges.</p><p>" 'Article 23 has been wielded by the Hong Kong government as a tool to suppress critical voices with the ultimate aim of eradicating them. Alongside the <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/NSL" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>NSL</span></a>, it has handed the authorities virtually unchecked power to arrest and jail anybody criticizing the government. The result is a Hong Kong where people are forced to second-guess what they say and write, and even what they wear,' Sarah Brooks said.</p><p>" 'The now default use of pre-trial <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/detention" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>detention</span></a> and refusal of bail are alarming examples of how Article 23 has been used to reinforce the repressive tools first introduced under the NSL.”<br>‘<a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/NationalSecurity" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>NationalSecurity</span></a>’ as a trump card overriding established laws</p><p>"Article 23 has also been weaponized to impose additional punitive measures against dissidents already serving sentences. Under the existing Prison Rules, last amended in 2014, prisoners with good conduct were eligible for early release after serving two-thirds of their sentences. However, according to new rules set by Article 23, the prison authorities can waive this practice if the release would be 'contrary to the interests of national security'.</p><p>"Notably, at least two jailed activists have been denied early release, despite the fact that they were not convicted under Article 23 and had already begun serving their sentences before its enactment.</p><p>"One of the activists – who was convicted of incitement to wound, a charge unrelated to any national security legislation – was barred from early release despite Article 23 expressly stating that the new rules apply only to prisoners convicted of offences endangering national security.</p><p>" '<a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/Retroactively" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Retroactively</span></a> denying early release based on vague national security justifications undermines legal certainty and due process. The government’s failure to comply with the very text that it drafted further raises serious concerns about the arbitrary application of Article 23,' Sarah Brooks said.<br> <br>Extraterritorial application against <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/overseas" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>overseas</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/activists" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>activists</span></a></p><p>"The worrying impact of Article 23 on human rights is not restricted to Hong Kong. Authorities have invoked Article 23’s extraterritorial scope to penalize a total of 13 Hong Kong activists residing overseas, including in the <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/UK" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>UK</span></a>, the <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/US" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>US</span></a>, <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/Canada" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Canada</span></a> and <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/Australia" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Australia</span></a>. These penalties have included the cancellation of passports, suspension of lawyer licenses, removal from company directorships and prohibition of financial transactions, restricting a range of <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/HumanRights" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>HumanRights</span></a> such as their freedom of movement, right to privacy and right to work.</p><p>"These measures have been imposed alongside arrest warrants issued under the NSL, each carrying a HK$1 million (US$128,700) bounty, for these 13 individuals and six other overseas activists.</p><p>" 'By sanctioning activists overseas, the Hong Kong government is attempting to extend its <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/DraconianLaws" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>DraconianLaws</span></a> beyond its borders to target potentially anyone, anywhere. The situation has resulted in a chilling effect on individuals who persist in exercising their freedom of expression, even after departing from the city. The international community cannot afford to ignore Article 23’s intended extraterritorial reach,' Sarah Brooks said.</p><p>" 'We urge the Hong Kong and Chinese governments to immediately repeal Article 23, the NSL and any other legislation which violates international human rights laws and standards. We also call on other governments to safeguard the fundamental rights and freedoms of <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/Hongkongers" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>Hongkongers</span></a>, in particular those actively defending human rights, within their jurisdictions.</p><p>" 'The rising risk of transnational repression, which Amnesty has documented and which is explicitly tied to Hong Kong’s national security legislation, demands a response by governments worldwide. As a start, that means denouncing incidents of transnational repression and pursuing accountability for criminal acts targeting activists and others in the country of residence.' </p><p>Background</p><p>"On 19 March 2024, Hong Kong’s Legislative Council unanimously voted to pass the Safeguarding National Security Ordinance based on Article 23 of the Basic Law, Hong Kong’s mini-constitution.</p><p>"The law, which took effect on 23 March 2024, introduced China’s definition of 'national security' and 'state secrets', together with other broadly defined offences which further restricted freedom of expression and the right to protest. It also replaced a widely used <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/colonial" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>colonial</span></a>-era <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/sedition" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>sedition</span></a> law with its own provisions on sedition which now expressly cover acts or speech which do not incite violence. The maximum prison sentence for sedition was increased from two to seven years, or up to 10 years if involving 'collusion with an external force'.</p><p>"Amnesty International submitted an analysis of its proposals to the government during the consultation period, concluding that the offences and changes to investigatory powers are contrary to Hong Kong’s human rights obligations. After the law was passed, Amnesty International issued a briefing paper providing an in-depth analysis of the effects of the law on both Chinese and non-Chinese individuals, in particular via its purported extraterritorial application." </p><p>Source:<br><a href="https://www.amnesty.org/en/latest/news/2025/03/hong-kong-article-23-law-used-to-normalize-repression-one-year-since-enactment/" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no" target="_blank"><span class="invisible">https://www.</span><span class="ellipsis">amnesty.org/en/latest/news/202</span><span class="invisible">5/03/hong-kong-article-23-law-used-to-normalize-repression-one-year-since-enactment/</span></a> <br> <br><a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/AntiProtestLaws" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>AntiProtestLaws</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/AntiProtestLaws" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>AntiProtestLaws</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/CriminalizingDissent" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>CriminalizingDissent</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/CriminalizingProtest" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>CriminalizingProtest</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/HumanRightsViolations" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>HumanRightsViolations</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/BigBrother" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>BigBrother</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/NeverForgetTiananmen" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>NeverForgetTiananmen</span></a></p>

MikeDunnAuthor<p>Today in Labor History January 4, 1883: Radical writer and publisher Max Eastman was born. In the 1910s, he edited “The Masses,” one of America's leading socialist periodicals. Contributors included Sherwood Anderson, Amy Lowell, Mabel Dodge Luhan, John Reed, Carl Sandburg and Upton Sinclair. During this period, he advocated for free love and birth control. In 1917, he co-founded “The Liberator” with his sister Crystal Eastman. In that periodical, he published Hellen Keller, John Dos Passos, Hemingway and Cummings. The U.S. government indicted him twice under the Sedition Act. Both times his lawyers got him acquitted. In 1917, he raised money for John Reed, who was in Russia, reporting on the Bolshevik Revolution. He published Reed's articles from Russia, later collected as “Ten Days That Shook the World.” In the early 1920s, Eastman lived in the Soviet Union. He witnessed Stalin’s Great Purge and became highly critical of Stalinism, and then of communism and socialism in general. He moved back to the U.S. and became a staunch anti-communist and an advocate of free market capitalism.</p><p><a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/workingclass" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>workingclass</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/LaborHistory" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>LaborHistory</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/maxeastman" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>maxeastman</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/socialism" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>socialism</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/sedition" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>sedition</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/freespeech" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>freespeech</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/russia" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>russia</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/communism" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>communism</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/soviet" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>soviet</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/stalin" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>stalin</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/johnreed" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>johnreed</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/dospassos" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>dospassos</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/helenkeller" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>helenkeller</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/writer" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>writer</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/author" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>author</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/journalism" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>journalism</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/books" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>books</span></a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/fiction" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>fiction</span></a> <span class="h-card" translate="no"><a href="https://a.gup.pe/u/bookstadon" class="u-url mention" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">@<span>bookstadon</span></a></span></p>
MikeDunnAuthor<p>Today in Labor History December 23, 1921: President Warren Harding issued a "Christmas amnesty," freeing Eugene V. Debs and 23 other political prisoners who had been imprisoned for their opposition to World War I under the Sedition Act. Debs was a founding member of the IWW, a socialist, and a 5-time candidate for president of the US. In the 1912 election, he won 6% of the vote. He also led the 1894 Pullman Strike of over 250,000 railroad workers.</p><p>In 2023, the U.S. launched its <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/WithoutJustCause" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">#<span>WithoutJustCause</span></a> campaign to seek the release of the over 1 million political prisoners around the world, ignoring/denying the fact that it has its own political prisoners, including Mumia Abu-Jamal and Leonard Peltier, who have been in prison through eight different presidencies.
