See for example https://protonvpn.com/blog/hong-kong-security-law/

In short, a color revolution is a non-organic, sponsored one.

That blog post doesn't elaborate on the color revolution terminology or explain what if anything about the Hong Kong resistance is non organic or sponsored.

For whatever reason, the history of posts on Lemmy about protonmail being bad is incredibly scatterbrained, don't clearly explain themselves, and to link to things that don't clearly elaborate on the the points that are making.

It's a stunning level of short attention span communication that would only make sense to a friend who is sitting next to you and watching what you were browsing, which is not context that anyone has here.

The blog doesn't explain it, because it's an example of it. All against states the U.S. opposes in one capacity, or other, providing finances and training to the opposition. That's why it's non-organic.

You can see recurring countries like China, Belarus, Yugoslavia, Lebanon, Macedonia, Russia, Iran (Green movement), Moldova, Ukraine, Iraq (yes, the U.S. invasion was also called the Purple Revolution, i.e. bringing of democracy to the country, blah, blah...)
