Ahhh~ I see you're using the Gish Gallop technique, 15 different links, wow!
For those unawares, the Gish Gallop is when you bombard your opponent with claim after claim, using whatever source agrees with you.

Like seriously, this account is called the Shanghai Panda. Do you expect them to be truthful when their pinned tweet is calling the CCP democratic and calling Western nations undemocratic?
Links to a logical fallacy Wikipedia article and doesn't respond to a single point, Liberals are not sending their best!
They're sharing videos and pictures from people who were at the protests, you should be engaging with the content that the account posted, not with the account's username.
