    It’s still a tragedy, even if putting down the riots that resulted in lynchings of innocents before the PLA came in was ultimately necessary. You’re not really understanding what I’m saying.

    A Maoist protest was twisted into a liberal one backed by the US, where the rioters went on to burn people alive and lynch unarmed officers.

      You’re the only one saying tragedy. The rest are praising it. One more just for “fun” “much ado about nothing”

      At best, according to Chinese sources, it was 300 revolutionaries killed in response to a handful of lynched soldiers -> not praise worthy. That’s called overkill.

      At worst, according to the Swiss ambassador that was there, it was 2600-ish people. Definitely not praiseworthy. That’s called a massacre.

      Either way, not necessary. Ffs, the whole black lives matter which was a shit show and still there were 35-ish deaths. But yeah, it was necessary and praiseworthy. Give me a break. But it’s good to finally get an actual stance out of you and not just dodgy bs. But you say “PLA” instead of “the army”, so I’m not surprised.
