失聲香港
由 阿果二〇一四年之後，社會瀰漫著一股無力感。這種無力，來自個人，也是源於集體，延伸至各個層面。有人覺得荒謬的事接二連三，反對之後既然一切如舊，就心灰意冷，拋下一句這裡已經不是我的地頭，選擇了另一種生活模式 。走入本應多元開放的流行文化世界，商業決定一切，愈來愈單一的路線，已經容不下半點的曖昧。曾經被萬人追捧的明星，變成了官方代言人。有些發表自己意見、呼籲粉絲登記做選民的藝人，因著被攻擊，首先刪文，繼而道歉。在主流的路愈見狹窄的同時，有人離世，有人金盤口。眾聲喧嘩，彷彿只是一個想望。回望媒體，依然是大眾的詬病，為了追求點擊率，常常八卦當新聞，小事變大事，樂此不疲。與此同事，又有些媒體，堅持宗旨，做好節目，卻一再被有心人攻擊，直至停止製作。過去的幾年，因為無力，所以沉默。很多人聚眼於小生活，不理大時代。直至二〇一九年，情況不同了。有些人開始尋回屬於公民的聲音，在各方各面東奔西走$76.00 HKD
