What about the comrades who fight brutal and racist cops in America or Europe? Ideally, the persons responsible for the violence should be sent to Reform-Through-Labor for a long, long period of time, if the courts don't sentence them to death.
Use of the military only shows that Zhongnanhai was really scared, and that the protests had gotten out of control.
Anyways, I'd like to end it here and leave you the last word, as we are really deep in the comment chain. Thank you for giving me the opportunity to refine my thoughts on this subject.
People over here moan so hard they support arresting 10,000's of peacefull protestors before they even leave there houses lol.
Like thats what im getting at really, the public would be fully behind any state repression. And yeah if I was a communist, in a communist country, and my civil servants are being lynched?
I wouldnt expect anything but de-escelation, but lets not be naive and suggest the CPC should have done nothing in response, people had guns and where killing indiscriminatly, it had stopped being a protest and looked more like a coup.
Where that line gets drawn ultimtely comes down to is ideology, im not giving my life for a liberal project, I do support socialists.
