Your reading comprehension really is something to behold. You basically just disagreed with me by saying exactly the same thing I just fucking said.

Yeah, the Liberals only destroyed the Nazis and Imperial Japan in WWII, saving the USSR in the process.

Not to mention jailing far right nutballs whenever they step out of line.

Much worse than running gulags for anarchists. /s

Why don’t you say what you mean, punk

Why would there only be one lie?

There aren’t and I never said there were. I was responding specifically to a comment about WMDs in Iraq

Although people died in violent clashes on Chang’an Avenue and elsewhere in Beijing, no one died in Tiananmen Square

This, however, is directly a lie. While it is true that nearly all confirmed deaths were at Muxidi and Chang’an Avenue, there were definitely deaths within the square itself. The only reason there weren’t more is because the students were committed to nonviolent protest, even as a full military force with weapons banned by the Geneva Conventions pulled up on them. (Guess what, the Geneva Conventions don’t apply if you don’t declare war! The US and CCP both love that tidbit).

Wikileaks published diplomatic cables acknowledging that no one died in the square

The first source you linked states clearly that gunfire was heard in the Square, as do almost every other source I could find. And no, it’s not just referring to the gunfire that was used to destroy the loudspeakers. Your second source tries to pretend like Muxidi was just a few people killed under very different circumstances, and also pretends as though everyone thinks Tiananmen was simply a massacre of students and nothing more. Maybe I’m in the minority, but the fact that the protestors in the square were university students was never more than a footnote of the story. It doesn’t really change it, and I was also aware that students were not the only participants in the protest.

Your third source is from someone who heard the gunfire but could not see the square, and was driven through the square forty minutes later. He says he didn’t see any evidence of mass shootings there, but that doesn’t mean there weren’t any. Forty minutes is a long time to clean things up, especially when some reported that they ran over the dead in order to hose them down the drains in the square for efficient cleaning. 1 2 Most likely what happened in the square itself is that some protestors were killed by gunfire, whether randomly or intentionally, and from being crushed by tanks (which your fourth source confirms by the way) while most were escorted out later. This of course does not change the fact that an unknown number likely in the thousands were killed trying to keep the army from getting to the square, and killed trying to enter the square after the army already arrived there.

Hou Dejian, who was there all night, called out the false narrative in an interview: “Are we going to use lies against an enemy who lies?”

Hou Dejian also made an unknown agreement with CCP officials after secretly meeting with them. He later admitted that this meeting occurred, but we still don’t know what it was about or why. Using him as a source for anything is suspect at best.

A Spanish film crew was in in the square all night and filmed students leaving peacefully at dawn, singing the Internationale. Here it is on Youtube: [9]. This aired on Hong Kong news but never in the west — I wonder why?

I can’t speak to if this ever appeared on the news, but nearly every source I read about this, as well as the Wikipedia page for the massacre, mentions this. Anyone who wants to learn about this event knows that some of the students were able to leave the square peacefully.

Tiananmen Square massacre is not.

This is at best misleading semantics, but in reality a boldfaced lie. Enough people died in the square for it to be called a massacre. Even some of the articles you sourced said that in no uncertain terms. But even if that wasn’t the case, more than enough people died across Beijing and across a half-dozen other cities in China who also held protests in solidarity with the protestors at Tiananmen. To say there is no evidence of a massacre at Tiananmen is to say there is no evidence that I shit in a toilet.

I have things to do tonight, so I’ll have to come back to your posts about NK and Xinjiang later. What comes after this is a mix of personal anecdotes, interviews with current and former Chinese citizens, and my own conclusions. It will all be unsourced but if anyone’s curious I can clarify where things came from later.

China still says Tiananmen was a student riot that was quieted mostly without casualties by the military police, and that those who died were killed in self-defense. This is an outright falsehood. They switched from rubber bullets to live rounds before they even reached the square, hence the confirmed deaths at Muxidi, Chang’an, and other places in the city. The people were shocked at the usage of live rounds. The event is still something that Chinese people do not talk about. In the modern day, everyone knows about it thanks mostly to Wikipedia. It’s somehow not blocked by the Great Firewall and a lot of data about the event is written on there. But even back when it happened, most people knew what really happened even though the government suppressed news and lied in their official releases. Some people still bought the lies that it was a necessary evil, even though they knew that the government had lied about how bad the event really was.

Beyond any of that, I notice you don’t have anything to say about the Great Leap Forward or the Cultural Revolution, despite those being arguably much more harmful events in the history the CCP. But even more importantly, the fact that you feel the need to defend the CCP at all makes zero sense, since it has never resembled communism. If your goal truly is to advance communism, you should want to distance yourself from China as much as possible, because they are not and have never been communist. Since the days of Deng Xiaoping China has been an authoritarian oligarchy pretending to be capitalist, and before that it was an authoritarian oligarchy pretending to be communist. The party has never sought to work for the people.

And please stop taking pages from the fascist’s playbook by saying a bunch of dumb bullshit and forcing people like me to break down, step-by-step, why you couldn’t possibly be more wrong. This comment did not need to be a 5 minute read. The last paragraph is really the only one that says anything new at all, but some people might read your shit-flinging comment and actually agree with you if they didn’t know any better. It’s ironic that you are spreading misinformation while pleading for people to stop spreading misinformation.

You accuse me of defending the “genocidal” western world?

Which country started WW2 and the holocaust? I am gonna give you a hint it is 1 of the people I named in my post.

If you actually think I am defending anyone than you are not reading my post.

I love the fact that you all have a notepad somewhere with written statements for these subject. Don’t make it to obvious.

What is the point you are trying to make with that article? That western nations are not perfect? That because western nations are taking advantage of others that it is okay for countries to commit mass murder? That authoritarian regimes are born from western actions? That inequality all around the world is born from the actions of western nations?Tell me what is your angle and what do you want me to do with the info you provide which is information that I already knew.

In regards to your other posts;

Criticizing journalism is okay. Not taking everything at face value is a good practice to have.

But willfully ignoring history and everything that has been said and written about it is just still and again people purposely closing their eyes.

I still do not understand why someone would not take the time to actually read the literature and watch the footage of how hurtful these regimes have been through the years.
