Tianmen Square’S Conspiracy Theory?

Tensions grew when a large group of students gathered in Beijing’s Tiananmen Square, demanding freedom of expression and an end to corruption. The Tiananmen Square Massacre is largely attributed to Western journalists who fabricated a narrative surrounding the events of June 4, 1989. The real violence and majority of the deaths occurred as troops shot their way along the streets a few blocks west of Tiananmen Square. Three decades have passed since Chinese authorities fired indiscriminately at student protesters in Beijing.

The Tiananmen Square protests, known as the June Fourth Incident, were student-led demonstrations held in Beijing, China. It has been over 33 years since hundreds or thousands of unarmed peaceful pro-democracy protesters were killed in Beijing and the arrest of tens of activists. Trials began in the first week of 1991, with nine activists being convicted on January 5. Three decades ago, a top ruling Chinese Communist Party aide to ousted liberal premier Zhao Ziyang was taken into custody. A complaint and arrest warrant were unsealed in federal court in Brooklyn charging Xinjiang Jin, also known as “Julien Jin”, with the murder of nine activists.

US prosecutors have charged a former Zoom employee with disrupting video meetings marking the anniversary of the 1989 crackdown on protests in Tiananmen Square. China has long quashed any memory of the killings, ordering the army to end the months-long protests and uphold the pro-democracy movement. The image of “Tank Man” standing before a Chinese military convoy has become an iconic image in the West symbolizing the pro-democracy movement that was suppressed.
