Why are westerners so obsessed with Tiananmen anyway? Is it the only time in the history of PRC when a suppressed protest could be construed as representing liberal good boys or something? Is it some deep trauma caused by dashed hopes of China falling alongside Eastern Europe? What makes it so special?

They all somehow convinced themselves that the Chinese government ran over people with tanks on live television even though that's easily disproven.

Also there's some dope pictures and the chinese government refuses to talk about it and censors their internet so that other people can't. When you can easily learn about the atrocities that your country has commited it kind of loses the mystique.

still holding the candle light vigil here in Hong Kong. People were worried that we couldn’t protest about June 4 after the hand over. The PRC guaranteed freedom of expression but little by little. gently caress this I’m going to get drunk and go to the mainland tonight for work

Modest Mao posted:The film / TV commercial / TV etc market in China is even more insane. tbf this is why chinese tv series can come out with new episodes like every couple days of or so year round instead of having 10 episodes or so produced in the west every year or so truly heroic effort on the part of "engineers of the soul!"

tbf the students were 70% correct 30% wrong and the party: including Deng and even Li Peng acknowledged that students had some justified demands to reduce corruption, inflation and nepotism. Unfortunately CIA used "small number of bad elements" to turn Beijing protest into final showdown against the party, against socialism and against the Chinese working class.

Is it some deep trauma caused by dashed hopes of China falling alongside Eastern Europe? What makes it so special? it literally comes down to "there were western TV cameras in bejing at the time so there were videos of it" westerners are brainwashed by TV so if something happens on USA propaganda networks they know and keep caring about it but if there's no TV footage of it they don't even know what's going on

"there was no Tienanmen massacre because the army chased people out of Tienanmen into the nearby streets, where they were massacred, simply not in the square itself" ok

Typo posted:tbf this is why chinese tv series can come out with new episodes like every couple days of or so year round instead of having 10 episodes or so produced in the west every year or so It's actually because typically the entire series is filmed at once, sometimes even without regard to episode breaking points. The TV station buys the entire series and edits it how they like, half hour episodes with 20 in a season? or maybe 20 hour long episodes a season... In other words, there's no "being picked up for another season" or "being cancelled" in China. It's all or nothing, and production is insane.

Modest Mao posted:"there was no Tienanmen massacre because the army chased people out of Tienanmen into the nearby streets, where they were massacred, simply not in the square itself" That's not what that article is saying. It's arguing that it's important to accurately report who was killed. quote:The problem is this: as far as can be determined from the available evidence, no one died that night in Tiananmen Square.
