    They were manipulated by CIA plants that were murdering Chinese army soldiers. So. There’s that part of the story that caused the states response.

      Username checks out.

      Tankies will always find any excuse to say China can do no wrong, and if they do it’s the west’s fault…

      “We had to massacre those protesters, you see. The US was targeting our military assets! It’s their fault.” Golly.

        I mean. If labor unions killed people. Like they did during some of the coal mine riots. It gives the police and at times military freedoms to retaliate.

        I grew up where the sheriff of my county killed 25 people in a single day before miner unions were allowed to exist.

        Look up the Williamsport Mine Field Riots. They treated these people like animals. Just like the CCP treats their lower workers.

        I’m not a tankie. I just know what happened on the ground that led up to the violence. I was in a masters program for counter terror.
