- zaik 2y agoIt's a deliberate act to include this string in the website. Very different.
- jknoepfler 2y agoI don't think anyone anywhere should cater to suppression of Tiananmen Square, and think 100% of the fault lies on the active act of censorship, not the morally and ethically positive act of making a government attrocity visible. I guess I don't care "why"... color me crazy. Censorship goes away, problem goes away. End of story for me.
- gruez 2y ago>I don't think anyone anywhere should cater to suppression of Tiananmen Square Not including it in meta keyword tag on the website for graduate admissions is hardly "suppression".
- jknoepfler 2y agoRight, it's collateral damage from blocking all internet sites containing the string, period. Why are we blame-shifting from the Chinese government?
- gruez 2y ago>Why are we blame-shifting from the Chinese government? What gave you the impression that "blame-shifting" is happening? See my other comment. Blame isn't a zero sum game. The fact that the university is racist doesn't mean china is off the hook for censorship.
