Comment on Absolutely nothing happened June 1989

  You sure react in favor of the USA government. I mentioned a case of a massacre of hundreds of students in a public square in a completely different country because it is related to the OP. The treatment of this case was the same: “nothing happened here, nothing to see”. The USA, through the CIA, got involved in the whole thing. Your reaction? You accuse me of “whataboutism”, overlooking the fact of the massacre. You do not even mention anything about it with your “nice whataboutism”. Well, it was not nice at all, but it happened. My intention was to show another horrible and similar case of deadly authoritarianism against students. I’m expecting people can hold two or more similar crimes against humanity in their brains for a while.

    So you agree that the Tianmen Square Massacre truly happened and is just as inexcusable as the other example you brought up?

      Is that a debate? Of course it happened. All massacres are inexcusable.

        Oh, okay. I just made the assumption that you were denying it since bringing up a bad this the USA has done/does as a response to any criticism of China is really common on Lemmy.
