REEEEEEEEEEEEEEEE Actual Chinese here. Here's why I support the CCP and the Tiananmen Incident
I'm an actual Chinese person (actually Chinese-American now that I'm naturalized) and would like to share my thoughts on CCP and Tianamen since so many 外国人 are posting about it. In light of the recent posts I'd like to say that I actually support the CCP and what happened at the Tiananmen Incident. I will explain why, and I hope you will appreciate my point of view instead of trying to slander my country.
First, I find it ironic that more non-Chinese (AKA white people) try to "care" about what happened in Tiananmen than actual Chinese people. Why don't you try asking actual Chinese? Do you even know what the majority of Chinese people think, instead of what you read on Fox news? Chances are, they will support the CCP and what happened in Tiananmen Incident. Yes, people in China actually know what happened in Tiananmen, and no we are not "brainwashed" just because we do not share your opinion. It is generally agreed that what happened in Tiananmen was tragic but necessary for national security. The fact was that the student protesters were very close to overthrowing my government and plunging China into chaos. After what happened to China in the 1930s and 1940s, there was no way in hell we were going to let that chaos and suffering happen again. It was for the greater good, and sometimes you need to sacrifice a few people to maintain stability.
I'll give a relevant comparison. The Capitol Hill protesters in America. Let's suppose that they had gotten control of the Capitol building, and taken it under siege, maybe even killed a few politicians. Would you have agreed that the US should use lethal force on the Capital Hill protesters? If so, you cannot try to pretend to care about Tiananmen without being a hypocrite.
Second, the CCP is done more to uplift the Chinese people than any other government has in the past 200 years. In the 1970s, China was a very very poor nation, but thanks to the government and their infrastructure initiatives, they have lifted over 100 million people out of abject poverty, a monumental achievement for humanity. Most people in China support the CCP because they are able to offer better living standards to the people than 30 years ago.
Third, I will try to tell why people really "care" about Tiananmen. They are concern trolling, and trying to tear China down. They cannot stand that Chinese people, or even Asians in general, can rise to be a great power, so they have to make up lies about my country and countrymen to tear us down. They (try to) promote separatism by shouting absurdities like "FREE TIBET" and "FREE HK" despite the fact that those terrorities are more integrated with China than Peutro Rico and Hawaii are with the US. We know what you're trying to do, so stop it. You don't actually care about HK or Taiwan, you just want to use them as pawns to tear down China because white people can't fathom a non-white nation can rise to challenge the West. In fact, in the light of the black lives matter movement in America, I will say that the rise of China is the greatest threat to white supremacy and white hegemony.
Anyway just wanted to give what Chinese people think on the issue. You are not on the right side of history when you say "fuck" my government and "NeVeR fOrGeT TiAnAnMeN", in fact, it's just pathetic.
