> How many times since 1989 has the chinese communist party rolled tanks over a crowded city square during a student protest in Beijing's main square
Uh, Hong Kong [1][2].
Also, in case you're being serious, the problem in Tiananmen wasn't tanks rolling into the city. It was the Army gunning down children [3].

This is sort of like arguing America has solved redlining because mortgage bankers aren't doing it with a red marker.
Well, it’s more like saying America has solved police brutality because they aren’t bombing civilians anymore.
