Date of 4 June remains one of China’s strictest taboos, with government using increasingly sophisticated tools to censor its discussion
There is no official death toll but activists believe hundreds, possibly thousands, were killed by China’s People’s Liberation Army in the streets around Tiananmen Square, Beijing’s central plaza, on 4 June 1989.
The date of 4 June remains one of China’s strictest taboos, and the Chinese government employs extensive and increasingly sophisticated resources to censor any discussion or acknowledgment of it inside China. Internet censors scrub even the most obscure references to the date from online spaces, and activists in China are often put under increased surveillance or sent on enforced “holidays” away from Beijing.
New research from human rights workers has found that the sensitive date also sees heightened transnational repression of Chinese government critics overseas by the government and its proxies.
That’s not what I said. I said the Nazi state explicit goal was racial purity. Communists, Christians, Liberals have all done genocide IN SPITE OF their stated goal and doctrine. The nazis did it because it was their plans all along
You come back to this post after 4 months for whatever reason just to write this? Wow, whatever education system you went through failed you because your level of ignorance is genuinely painful.
I’ll explain in the simplest way that I can. Ethnic purity as a concept has existed long before Nazi Germany. There have been countless ideologies before Nazism about getting rid of ethnic minorities to achieve this goal, and a lot of them have been enacted. Want examples? Look at the Armenian genocide or the Circarssian genocide or Holodomor or the Assyrian genocide or the endless of racially motivated genocides before the Nazis. The point is that the Nazis were NOT the first to commit genocide with the explicit goal of ethnic purity.
