I haven’t watched it yet but let me guess, it was a conflict and not a massacre, and the weird lib thing about people being squished and washed down drains is just absolute nonsense and insanity. Death rolls are far smaller than usually implied by westerners because again it clearly was not a “massacre” and the protesters were killing military personnel and destroying vehicles so some deaths would be expected.
Got the gist yeah. Missed specifics like the liberal protestors being urban citizens and weirdly racist and pro-colonialist, US outlets spreading misinfo to escalate protests, the leaders of the student protests getting cushy jobs in the US afterwards, etc
Heres an ancient remanant of what libs used to think was a damning indictment of china. Before the myths about Tiananmen became parodies of themselves.
There is an interesting fact to note about chai ling, though i am speculating. When she did the interview and admitted she wanted to provoke a violent crackdown she is following the principles of non violence as espoused by eugene sharp. Some Anti-imperialists have accused the AEI of being a cia/State Dept. front that serves to foment revolutions in unfriendly countries since it has been funded by the NED.
What she said is still discrediting but there was a method to her madness.
