Absolutely nothing of note happened in China in June 1989, right? - Lemmy.world

But who hasn’t killed their citizens in a simple misunderstanding? Or, if that doesn’t work, America Also Bad! \s

I mean, China fucking sucks and is a shit authoritarian statist government but let’s not pretend America hasn’t done similar things.

Ever heard the stories of how we won the right to unions?

  • Columbine Mine Massacre

  • Ludlow Massacre

  • Thibodaux Massacre

  • Battle of Blair Mountain

  • Herrin Massacre

Hundreds of people killed in total because they were protesting.

Those things? Also bad.

Incredible that two things can simultaneously be shit, but it’s true.

Weird how I only ever hear one of those events used to dismiss an entire system of economic organization though
I guess you’re not listening then because “capitalism fucking sucks and is responsible for countless atrocities” is a pretty common tale these days.
Hey man anarcho-syndacalism slaps, no worries if that’s your preference.
