Nonviolent protests are twice as likely to succeed as armed conflicts – and those engaging a threshold of 3.5% of the population have never failed to bring about change.
Thanks for completely ignoring my analysis of the sources of your “have you seen this, you filthy commie?” article. Kinda proving that you’re arguing from vibes here and not from material evidence.
Has anyone spoken to him afterwards? No? Why’s that?
Because he’s an anonymous dude only known from a low-res video that absolutely doesn’t allow for identification?
Massacres outside the square don’t count
You’re being purposefully obtuse. I explicitly said that the degree of repression was probably overboard and unnecessary, and a dark episode in Chinese history. You’re literally ignoring my reasonable points and arguing against strawmans, while refusing to do the bare minimum analysis of the sources of your material
I explicitly said that the degree of repression was probably overboard and unnecessary, and a dark episode in Chinese history.
Yet, here you are, completely triggered and feeling the need to argue and bending over backwards to defend China over a single picture of a lego figurine that I posted.
You could have just agreed that using tanks against protestors is indeed Very Bad™, like a normal fucking person. So yeah, of course I’m going to ridicule you, you daft cunt.

Mate, you brought up the topic, not me. I initially started a conversation on precisely the picture you posted, because most people in the west see it out of context and believe that the protestor was trampled or arrested, instead of harmlessly walking away. You’re the one spreading anti-china propaganda and, when confronted with the reality of the specific picture you sent, you deflect and send an article with 100 pictures of the event.
It is an iconic picture that is representative for the courage of the people protesting, as well as for the bloody repression that occurred. Tanks were used against protestors, and not even the Chinese government denies that hundreds of people lost their lives on that day.
You feeling the need to “correct” me on tankman, just makes you an ackshually-ing neckbeard.
If by “iconic picture” you mean “out-of-context, manipulative, anticommunist, CIA-sponsored atrocity propaganda”, then yes, it’s very iconic in the NATO countries (show this to a Latin American and see if they know what it is).
Nah, it just happens when you actually research a topic and critically examine the events and the sources, instead of uncritically swallowing propaganda based on a single source of politicians from TERF-Island, sorry I mean Great Britain,
That must be so tiring, continuously rationalizing away the cognitive dissonance as “propaganda” and “CIA conspiracy” whenever you come across facts that don’t align with your world view.
Dude, literally, please, go to my original comment detailing the sources of your article, and answer on a point by point basis what’s wrong about my comments on the SPECIFIC sources of YOUR OWN ARTICLE.

Oh my god 😂 How do you even come up with shit like that? Do you have it rehearsed so that it just roll off your tongue?
