Tiananmen Square 1989: China massacres civilians

[saddayfordemocracy]

35 years of Tiananmen.

35 years since the Chinese government has wanted to erase this bloody repression from its history.

35 years later, the commemoration of Tiananmen remains BANNED in China and Hong Kong.

From 15 April - 4 June, 1989, pro-democracy protests would take over China. After peaceful resolutions to the protests fell threw, the Chinese government would declare martial law and forcefully break up the protests. This brutal crackdown would lead to anywhere from 200 - 2,700 dead.

Remember June 4 Tienanmen Square

Never forget how China's government turned on its own people, 1989.

Such flagrant appeals to colonialism have not been seen since the Tiananmen Square demonstrations in China in 1989. At that time, the vast assembly of counterrevolutionary student protesters, many of them schooled in the U.S., displayed a replica of the Statue of Liberty in Tiananmen Square in an open appeal for support from U.S. imperialism.

Parading through Hong Kong with U.S. flags in 2019 is the equivalent of displaying the statue of “Lady Liberty” in Tiananmen Square in 1989.

by the way, my parents participated in the protests. everyone did. today’s date looms large in the mind of every chinese person.

there was such an air of hope for social change. it vanished overnight.

fuck deng xiaoping’s government. fuck the CCP. never let this day 35 years ago be forgotten. never let anyone be silenced like this again.

“The Chinese government is seeking to erase memory of the Tiananmen Massacre throughout China and in Hong Kong,” said Maya Wang, acting China director at Human Rights Watch. “But 35 years on, the government has been unable to extinguish the flames of remembrance for those risking all to promote respect for democracy and human rights in China.”

Do you have any sources or counter arguments for what this person says about the Chinese hukou system? For the last few months I've been trying to learn more about contemporary China and I've found some really interesting things from you. I'm still reading the sources that this person provided but I'd really like to know what you think about it:

I haven't read that post, so these aren't counter-arguments, but I've already made a post regarding the Hukou system:

香港已经退居二线了，现在要轮到台湾值班。不要忘记！

With Hong Kong out of the picture, it's now up to Taiwan to take up the torch.

It doesnt sit right with me how tragedies that happened in China are used to silence Chinese people who talk about racism over here. Yes I know a lot of it is propaganda but let's assume for a second that everything the west says about China really is true:

As far as you know we were victimized back there, and now you use that fact to victimize us here? As far as you know the pictures you saw were of our dead bodies, and you use this to shut us up about being treated badly over here?

I don't understand the logic aside from they just hate us. Bad things happened to us in our country... so we deserve being abused outside of the country as well? Why? Why are you justifying treating us badly with 'your parent's classmates must have been massacred back then'? How is the fact that we were apparently all suffering in our own country make us deserve suffering in another country? Following their logic and beliefs about China 100% leads to nothing but cruelty and seething hatred.

Oh yeah, reminder that the tiananmen square massacre happened on the 4th of june 1989.

Never forget this, no matter how much the CCP tries to erase it from history.

Once again the corporate media are dusting off their anti-communist campaign of blatant lies and misinformation to sell the U.S. government’s line about supposed massacres carried out by the Chinese Communist Party 35 years ago.

Since 1989, however, irrefutable evidence — from Wikileaks documents to eyewitness reports — has exposed the blatant falsehoods promoted as gospel truth by Western capitalist governments and their loyal media.
