Looks almost like these people got run over by tanks or something.

But that's not possible because my reeducation camp told me that it never happened.

I'm a socialist and I think the CCP is evil and only pretend to care about their people. I also don't believe that centralization of power is ever a good idea. I just don't get tankie idiology.

Here is an archived version of an imgur album with a lot more pictures, including the days leading up to the attack on the protesters and some descriptions of the historic and cultural context.

All of the above warnings about graphic content apply: violence, gore and death.

Everyone reading this needs to understand, when a modern-day tankie describes someone as a 'liberal', a term which they use pejoratively, it carries the same meaning as "bourgeouis liberalism" in this quote:

Before the Tiananmen Square protests of 1989, the Chinese Communist Party (CCP) was desperate to quash what they saw as “bourgeois liberalism,” a broad phrase suggesting several kinds of resistance to the government’s strict and repressive political doctrine.

These tankies would applaud the same kind of treatment for 'liberals' today as was given to the protesters in Tienanmen Square by the CCP in 1989.

The group of protesters remained steadfast, even in the face of annihilation. Shots rang out, innocents were struck, and people began to die. Nonetheless — there was power in numbers, and solidarity that allowed them to find courage — and thousands joined hands as bullets flew. “Students linked arms but were mown down,” wrote Donald. “APCs then ran over the bodies time and time again to make, quote ‘pie’ unquote, and remains collected by bulldozer.”

As if this wasn’t atrocious enough, the government’s criminal and brutal activity that day got even worse. With no regard for the families of these victims, not to mention their identities, what was left of them was disposed of — in an unspeakably callous manner.

“Remains incinerated and then hosed down drains,” Donald wrote.

These protesters were mostly college students and teachers who had the gall to object to the CCP's authoritarianism.

Let them not be forgotten.
