Comment on Tankie
TheObviousSolution@lemmy.ca 2 days agoYou seem to think I’m trying to justify the Tiananmen Square when I’m just putting one particular incident in perspective to how ICE usually acts. Your gross oversimplifcations seem to want to act like whataboutism to how much worse the Tiananmen Square by portraying it into a caricature of “a massive student protest into a slurry that they pushed into the sewers”. It got pretty bad, a lot worse than any particular ICE incident up to date, but in a lot of ways it was served to the people just like ICE is being served up. People in the US should really inform themselves better with nuance, because the nuance is that it’s far closer to how ICE is acting: en.wikipedia.org/…/1989_Tiananmen_Square_protests…
This is only a year into Trump’s second term and it’s already this bad. Just look at how long it took Hitler.

I did no such thing. I was just pointing out that the “restraint” by the tank drivers the following day is not at all representative of the actual massacre

Ok, so understanding events = support of those events now?

Your gaslighting is bad and you should feel bad.
