This is what the #EditorialCartoon is referring to.

I had to show that to my students last semester. Watching Tiananmen Square, seeing kids just a little older than me being mowed down by the state, was formative moment in my understanding of violence.

About 300 died, many were soldiers. The students were armed and wanted to overthrow the gov. The overwhelming majority of the country did not agree.
You can like or dislike #China, but western #propaganda is exactly what its always been. Like those ultra conservative men that loudly denounce pedophiles and then get caught being one. Always pointing to distract from the truth.
