10s of millions of people participated in protests last summer in the US. 700k is 10% of HK population.
Both are extraordinary, it's not obvious to me who should win the "most well-behaved protest movement" award

It's also not a competition, nobody is trying to diminish the US protests, but I don't think that events of a similar magnitude would have gone down as peaceful in the US.
