I love how Tiananmen square is always brought up as some unique and tragic example of disinformation that could never occur in the west, as though western governments don't do the exact same thing with our worldview. Your veneer of cynicism scarcely hides the structure of naivety behind.
The difference is that, in the west, there's an acceptable counter narrative. I can tell you that Ruby Ridge and Waco never should've happened and were examples of government overreach and massacre of it's own citizens. Or <insert pet issue with the government here>
You can't with Tiananmen square in China
I still see/hear cynicism with a hidden structure of naivety behind.
Your veneer of ching chong scarcely hides the structure of ping pong behind... sad
