Propaganda and Gaslighting: How Our Government Is Handling January 6 Like China Handled Tiananmen Square
by J.B. Shurk January 4, 2022 Two symbolic events in the struggle for human freedom over oppressive government transpired last month with barely any notice from the American media. The first was the thirty-year anniversary of the collapse of the Soviet Union. The second was the Chinese Communist Party’s removal of monuments commemorating the 1989 Tiananmen Square Massacre that occupied sacred ground on Hong Kong university campuses, including a replica of the famed “Goddess of Democracy” statue that was erected in the square just before Chinese military forces killed, kidnapped, or crippled thousands of students and workers pleading for individual liberty.
It is a sad testament to how far the United States has fallen as a nation once synonymous with freedom that neither event caused much of a stir among the pampered princelings of D.C. I suppose it seemed disjointed to the creatures of our swamp leviathan to celebrate victory in the Cold War over an evil empire that stifled speech, micromanaged economic relations, and disappeared its political enemies into the bowels of gulag hell when it is now also perversely engaged in shutting down free speech, squeezing domestic markets into political compliance through mandates and regulations, and tossing election protesters into dungeons where complaints of physical and psychological torture are rife and constitutional due process looks beaten if not dead.
Likewise, how can the lords and ladies (and all their non-binary, “woke,” communist-leaning comrades) ruling the American continent from their taxpayer-funded “safe spaces” rail against China’s attempts to erase from history its bloody massacre of peaceful demonstrators nearly thirty-three years ago when D.C. is in the midst of an enormous propaganda campaign of its own to transform the overwhelmingly peaceful demonstrations that occurred last January 6 into an “insurrection” that somehow threatened the feds grip on total power?
China, how dare you rewrite history to turn “democracy protesters” into “domestic terrorists” at the exact same time we’re trying to rewrite history by turning “democracy protesters” into “domestic terrorists” ourselves? Have you no shame? It is clear that when it comes to “shame,” both the Chinese and American governments have already purged that word from their respective lexicons.
