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.

No, I’m not following you on a death-by-nitpicking quest. How is anyone even supposed to argue with logic such as “reee your source is a politician from TERF-island so this isn’t true!” …
In any case, none of your held beliefs meaningfully change anything about what happened: a mass protest was brutally repressed by an authoritarian regime, many innocent people died. End of story. No CIA conspiracy, no sinophobia, no propaganda, just something terrible that happened in this terrible world.

“No, I won’t engage in the critical analysis of my sources. My view on this heavily politically charged historical event is definitely not influenced by western bias, and even if it was, it doesn’t matter, because constantly unpromptedly bringing up something that happened 36 years ago isn’t political, it’s just a fact.”
