It started out with the police bringing the violence (in the form of tear gas, rubber bullets, etc.), but now some protesters have started responding with some more physical violence as well. A lot of violence I’ve seen/read about/heard about from protesters is mostly in response to police action. However, you do see incidents like that in the airport where the protesters beat a policeman who was “undercover” as a protester. I’ve found western media to focus on protests like those at the airport and how it stopped flights, etc. but really lacking in reporting the actual widespread protests (that are generally peaceful) and the tear gas and beatings occurring in mtr stations. I’ve had friends be pulled out of taxis for being suspected protesters just because they happened to be wearing black, so it is definitely starting to impact even those who are not wishing to get involved

Valid question. Few sources are truly objective, so it makes sense to always synthesize info from multiple sources to form your own view on any matter. Assuming you've access to msm that's mostly showing one perspective, here are some additional sources to show ONLY opposing views:
