Funny how reddit libs will just downvote this comment asking for sources but not dare engage with it.
It’s an intellectually honest question. Can anyone actually provide a source that China does not discuss the events surrounding the square? Or do they just assume it’s true and have never actually looked to confirm that claim themselves?

Funny how they come out in droves to downvote in general. Always good for a laugh. They sometimes downvote the most neutral comments as well. Makes me wonder if they have a mccarthyite list of “known communists” or something and are instructed to downvote on sight.
How Chinese describe it: Chinese Defense Minister Wei Fenghe described the Tiananmen protests as “political turmoil that the central government needed to quell.”
“The government was decisive in stopping the turbulence, that was the correct policy,” he said.
What about certain square? Will the government ever admit it?
Nisour square? I think the U$ is glad it happened.
Tiananmen Square.
Thanks for clarifying.
Can you share your source that China does not discuss the events surrounding the square?
I’d love to see your source on what happened there as well.

You’re right, it’s pretty funny to see you get banned
Fuck off, cracker
* You got banned so I can’t respond to your comment asking for a source. It’s pretty funny, though. My source is that you typed “bwahaha”
@brimnac, since you’re banned from the 'grad (good), I can’t interact with you. I can see your responses if I dip into lemmy.world.
An encyclopedia article is not a primary source.
An encyclopedia article without any actual links to sources or references may as well be a work of fiction.
That’s not a fucking source and you’re still a cracker.
