Since there is a large number of Chinese students at Columbia and there is a China police station in Chinatown I would bet that a Chinese police officer infiltrated the protest and did this.

Not sure how true it is, but FBI recently claimed China is operating police stations out of US and other countries to monitor Chinese immigrants. China says it is run by volunteers.

Its real they mascarade as an agency to "help" chinese nationals abroad with renewing ID and various forms. Fuzhou Police station is what they are called. But in actuality they hunt and harass CCP dissenters. They'll arrest family members that lives in mainland china and make them call that person to turn themselves and get expidited back to china. My prediction of this is that they'll wont be so obvious next time and work under a shell company.

I doubt the guys a Chinese officer. Communist party officials send their family members to study abroad and stuff like this happens. Theres been multiple times across the planet where pro CCP zombies attack anti CCP people

Most likely. The CCP has been caught having them in cities around the world to monitor the Chinese diaspora and Chinese citizens abroad. Makes sense that they'd have one in NYC with the size of our Chinese community and all the rest of the stuff happening here.

Some of the Chinese school clubs got broken up at Columbia years back because the Chinese gov’t had effectively taken control of them and were using them to try to exert control on Chinese students.

It would not be surprising at all if it had to do with someone with a tangential government relationship, but I’d imagine if it’s true they went rogue in this case since it seems totally insane to draw more attention to the issue.

Good on Columbia.

That is basically what Confucius Institutes have become on college campuses across the country

Oh it really doesn't have to be someone sent by the CCP, there are unfortunately a lot of party line idiots out there who would do such a thing

If it’s a foreign agent from the Chinese government who perpetrated that violence, then this needs to be investigated by the FBI too.

ask me if you want to learn about US involvement in Chinese governmental structures. either way, you should stick to partisan crime discussion, its a lot easier to understand

Your attempt at whataboutism sounds almost like an admission.

Because it sounds like you believe the predicate (“if it’s a foreign agent …”) is true and that you’re trying to respond to that.

You KNOW the CCP is balls deep in a place like Columbia… with all the research going on and all the party kids running around. They’re definitely keeping tabs to recruit spies or press some blackmail buttons
