    This is just another way liberal democracy/capitalism acts like an abuser, lashing out and intensifying their abuse in a desperate attempt to make their victims submissive and subservient again.

      It’s definitely not the sign of a confident and stable system.

        Around 300, so just like I thought, all of them are higher, even ignoring that most of those 300 were soldiers

          Ohh I get it, so you meant like higher in the sense that the US numbers are worse, even accounting for much of Tiananmen losses being military. With your first post, I thought you were doing the “but what about bajillion killed in Tiananmen Square thing” for a moment there. 😅 Glad that wasn’t the case.

            I don’t blame you for being cautious. I honestly didn’t consider that there could be a liberal or two around these parts.

    I’m amazed people are acting shocked. It’s not as if there aren’t a plethora of examples throughout history of this always happening as a regime becomes a wounded dog.
