This happened 150+ years ago. Tianeman square was 1989, the "Great Leap Forward" with its 15-55M estimated dead was in 1960. And to this day China denies these things happened, purges the Internet of any records, and punishes/arrests anyone in China who mentions them. I'm not even going into the persecution of the Uyghur Muslims in China, their forced detention and "indoctrination" camps... which again China denies, covers up etc. Western Europe and the US, while they have done some shit in the past, can't really be compared. At least in these countries, people are allowed to discuss these things, protest, vote out politicians whose views they disagree with. China meanwhile, is cracking down on free speech and democracy in Hong Kong.
