A planned Washington DC protest in support of Hong Kong activists and
promoting the ‘Chinazi’ flag is being sponsored by at least six
organizations backed by the notoriously shady, US-funded National Endowment
for Democracy (NED).
至少有六个组织，赞助预定的华盛顿特区抗议活动，以支持香港激进分子，并宣传
“赤纳粹”旗帜。这些组织由恶名昭彰的美国国家民主基金会(NED)支持。
Posters for the event circulated online contain an image of the so-called ‘
Chinazi’ flag – an altered version of the Chinese national flag with the
yellow stars arranged to form a swastika and with a hammer and sickle placed
in the center.
网络上流传的活动海报包含所谓的“赤纳粹”(Chinazi) 旗帜的图像，改编自中国国旗，
其中黄色的星星被安排形成一个纳粹标志，并在中心放置锤子和镰刀。
Protesters plan to form a human chain encircling the Chinese Embassy in
Washington to protest the “Chinazi regime” and call for an independent Hong
Kong. The #Chinazi hashtag has also become popular with activists on Twitter.
抗议者计划形成一个人链包围中国驻华盛顿大使馆，以抗议“中国政权”，并呼吁建立一
个独立的香港。 #Chinazi标签也在Twitter上受到激进分子的欢迎。
The list of event sponsors proves that the anti-China movement in Hong Kong
is backed not only by American politicians, but also by American money –
through US government-funded groups.
活动赞助商名单证明，香港的反华运动不仅得到了美国政客的支持，也得到了美国政府所
资助的团体的支持。
A DC-based organization called Citizen Power Initiatives For China, which
describes itself as a “grassroots movement” dedicated to promoting
democracy in China through “non-violent struggle” and “overseas assistance
” to “influence” Beijing’s policies, appears to be the chief event
organizer.
首要的活动组织者是建立在华盛顿特区的一个名为公民力量for China (Citizen Power
Initiatives For China) 的组织。他们自称是“草根运动”，致力于通过“非暴力斗争
”和“海外援助”来“促进”中国的民主，以“影响”北京的政策。。
Information on the group’s funding is not easily found on its website, but a
search of the NED database shows it received $206,500 from the US-funded
organization between 2015 and 2016.
有关该集团资金来源的信息在其网站上并不容易找到，但搜索美国国家民主基金会数据库
显示，它在2015年至2016年期间从美国资助的组织获得了206,500美元。
The NED, founded in 1983, claims to promote democracy abroad by offering
government grants to civil society groups around the world. In reality, it
has been used mainly as a soft-power vehicle to advance the US foreign policy
and military agenda through sowing chaos in countries targeted for ‘regime
change.’
美国国家民主基金会成立于1983年，声称通过向世界各地的民间社会团体提供美国政府补
助，来促进海外民主。实际上，它主要被用作软实力工具，通过种下混乱使目标国家“政
权交替”的方式，来推进美国的外交政策和军事议程。
The NED is “explicitly dedicated to meddling in other countries’ affairs,
interfering in elections, toppling democratically elected leaders, and
spreading public relations campaigns to sow chaos against countries that
resist Washington’s agenda,” award-winning journalist Max Blumenthal told
RT last year. Indeed, even one of the NED’s former presidents, Carl
Gershman, has admitted it was created in order to continue the work of the
CIA without the stigma of being attached to the spy agency.
美国国家民主基金会“明确致力于干涉其他国家的事务，干预选举，推翻民选产生的领导
人，并广泛进行公关活动，在对抗华盛顿议程的国家内制造混乱，”获奖记者Max
Blumenthal去年告诉RT。事实上，即使是美国国家民主基金会的前总裁之一Carl
Gershman也承认 ，创建这机构是为了沿续CIA的工作，而又能摆脱间谍机构的污名。[注
