Protesters backing Huawei's CFO Meng Wanzhou during her US extradition hearings were 'duped paid actors'

The signs are there

There are a ton of protests I see reported that I have to question. Rallies that are supposed to be grassroots yet many people are waving well designed and professionally printed placards. Even the "homemade" signs seen up close bear the marks of being manufactured to look homemade. A big give away is when the protest is supposed to have been spontaneous or organized in one day. I don't buy that in all of these cases some individual is so passionate that they immediately use their skills in graphic arts to design some signs and then run to the quick print shop where they spend their own money to have a bunch of them made and then stay up late to attach sticks so they are ready first thing in the morning to be seen on the AM news shows.
