It's to be expected that they'll know less about european history and correspondingly more about chinese history. And everyone knows what happened in Tiananmen square. It's living memory.
We could flip it around and talk about how ignorant westerners are of Chinese history..
- pnw_hazor 8y ago...flip it around and talk about how ignorant westerners are of their own history. However, researching, blogging, or talking about such lesser known dark/embarrassing events will not get you or your family barred from travel, public schools, and such.
- yourbandsucks 8y agoWell, that's a matter of opinion. How many stories about deplatforming have we had lately? "But those people are legitimately awful!" you say, and I agree with you, yet.. maybe other cultures have other norms? Maybe we should learn a little Chinese history before we presume to dicatate what their norms should be. The linked video is pretty good for imparting context on this issue, I'd recommend watching it.
