The US is building a new Great Firewall

The "Clean Network" initiative aims to root out Chinese apps and other tech products from the US internet, which some say is reminiscent of China's own digital wall.

    I was highly surprised upon detailed research sometime ago by how Tiananmen Square was never a massacre, but some deaths as a result of protest skirmishes, just like regular protests. Even the tankman photo we see from “June 4” is actually a June 5 photo after the protests were done, and is misleading. Western media really blinded us all this while.

    Recommend reading them and telling people about this. Tiananmen Square was not a massacre, and Western MSM misled all of us. I got bad news for you if you think China filling USA’s void would be happy to spread hate about others.

      The article you linked actually says that the reporting understated the reach of the massacre:

      There was no Tiananmen Square massacre, but there was a Beijing massacre.

      Honestly, you seem to have fallen for propaganda, and I doubt any amount of arguing will convince you otherwise.

        I showed you objective facts about the journalists that reported about Tiananment at that time, with valid photo and other evidence.

        You are the one brainwashed since ages and will refuse to think otherwise, since the West MSM lie has been in front of us for about half a century.

        To see how the June 5 picture is cropped in and misrepresented as “tankman crushed” June 4 photo, among other things, made me open my eyes wide.
