What about Tiananmen Square?
What the West calls the Tiananmen Square massacre happened June 4, 1989.
The leaders of our movement in China were executed and imprisoned in 1976
and 1977 by Hua Guofeng and the allies of Deng Xiaoping. Deng
Xiaoping and his allies were responsible for the "Beijing Spring" massacre
in
1989 just as they were responsible for initial repressions in the Cultural
Revolution in 1966.
Deng and the military leader in charge of putting down the Beijing rebellion
in 1989 were targetted as capitalist-roaders during the Cultural Revolution that we
support. The U.$. government and media thought highly of the capitalist-roaders, but
some bourgeois spokespeople did an about-face after the June 4th massacre.
Mao considered the Cultural Revolution one of his two greatest lifetime
achievements. The leaders that carried out the massacre on the city streets on
the way to clearing Tiananmen Square were
not
Maoist. China is state-capitalist.
