[Referring to the Tiananmen Square Massacre] We (at least many of us) have read the sources that have been linked. What is described there, particularly the accounts of people who were there, is what we assert is what happened. In the few instances where there may be contradictory first hand accounts (and mostly, the accounts are not contradictory but rather corroborate each other) there may be some ambiguity. But even taking that into account, it is ridiculous and downright ahistorical to say “Chinese authorities massacred people.”

This is from a conversation with the kind of people I would consider "tankies". It's from a community I think has since been deleted, but the general vibe of the comments in the post was that the Tiananmen Square massacre isn't a real thing and any civilian deaths were actually justified.
