When you believe truth is only dependent on who says it (west=lies, not west=truth) you start believing nonsense like china has not flaws, or events with verifiable footage (1989 TS) are exaggerations/a western lies.

Events with verifiable footage such as TS where the footage is conveniently cut off right before the man in front of the tank is safely escorted away if you look at the full footage.

Also, Tiananmen Square is in the background of said footage. The tank is actively driving away from it, but who needs context when the goal is to demonize China?

Would technically also, and indeed commonly go the other direction, but please .ml, stop navigating the world based soley on whether the west supports/is against something
