They don’t, though. In China, they call it the “June 4th incident,” and acknowledge that hundreds died around Beijing that day in conflicts between rioters firebombing the PLA and the PLA’s response. What the CPC censors is the now disproven western reporting of thousands dying, and the idea of the square itself having a massacre. Even Wikipedia backs that the square was dispersed bloodlessly. This gets twisted by western media into “censoring the massacre,” when in reality it’s censoring western misinformation meant to delegitimize China’s government.
Idk, but Chinese goverment is actively trying to censor people using gfw.
I don’t hate China, but Chinese government is crazy.
Every government censors, China focuses on limiting the speech of capitalists.
Okay, but they also try to censor everything related to 1989 Tiananmen Square protests and massacre. How do you explain this?

Huh, that completely changed my view on this. I’ll research a bit more myself. Tysm!
No problem! If you want a place to start for a Chinese perspective, I recommend this resource list.
Did you know: unlike china, piefed has jorjor well 1984 social credit score
wdym? Are you talking about Karma?
and I don’t know what ML means…
PieFed tracks how you interact and has scores for people, called “attitude” and “reputation.” These impact what you can do.
ML stands for Marxist-Leninist.
wtf??? why do they have that…
also thanks for the ML explanation
That’s part of why I prefer Lemmy, it’s more reasonable when it comes to things like that (as in, that doesn’t exist). No problem on the ML question.
