Remember Tian'anmen

in #history5 years ago

Hello,

about 30 years ago the world changed. There have been a lot of uprisings behind the iron curtain against the communist regime.

One that has withstand is China. On June 4th, 1989 the Chinese Communist Government slaughtered thousands of students and workers who wanted more freedom.

There are some defenders of it, who say that China is doing so well and its economy is blooming. I would doubt it and say that the east coast is blooming and that most of China is still in poverty.

The GDP per capita, not as a whole is not in the top 50 and China is somewhere close to warn torn Irak, Botswana or Gabon viewed from this point.

I've worked for a Chinese company and I can say that most of the guys there are brainwashed or simply afraid.

They deny even the massive slaughter done by Mao which was the biggest in history where more than 50 million people have been killed. Mostly they have had the fault of being able to read and having a degree.


What can I say? Hope that this image will never disappear from the web and that it will always remind us about the individual rights of life.

Yes. That's another 'never forget' movement that is mostly crushed. Thank you for keeping it alive.
