I mean… I kinda get it, but nowadays it’s starting to get absurd.

The first link cites:

Wikileaks
A chinese person
The ccp itself. It also just seems to be a wordpress blog.

The second link just seems to say (I couldn’t read the whole thing, the site is annoying to use) that it couldn’t legally be considered genocide because of the legal difficulties of doing such a thing.

Wikileaks is just publishing leaked US cables. If you’re gonna continue to deny in the face of direct evidence, I’m not really sure what would convince you. You probably just want to believe the lie.

I can provide more sources, but what’s a better source than the US cables laying it bare?

It’s funny how I can’t seem to find these so-called “leaked us cables” on Wikileaks at all and that article has no links.

It’s almost like it was created by some agency to misinform the public.

Just search ‘Wikileaks Tiananmen Square US cables’ and you’ll get a bunch of results directly to the cables. Here’s an article highlighting some: https://web.archive.org/web/20240418145004/https://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/wikileaks-files/8555896/Wikileaks-Tiananmen-cables.html

I actually tried searching Wikileaks itself in that exact date range. And nothing came up.

It’s almost like somebody made some shit up and then published it only to take it down when it was discovered it was all bullshit. Since the only place you can find this is on the bloody wayback machine.

You can find the cables on a standard search engine. The Wikileaks site hasn’t been as reliable since Assange was released. Around that time, the was briefly inaccessible, and some of the material seemed harder to access when it did come back up. Presumably, he handed over some control of the site when he was released, and the powers that be played with it.

Do you have any source on your claims Wikileaks fabricated anything? They’ve never been shown to have done anything like that.

Oh so you can only find it on the open web where anything can be published and there’s nothing to back up anything and not on the actual site that it’s supposed to come from because we can’t trust that site which is where the information originally supposed to have come from.

And you’re saying I’m the unhinged one. 😂
