Neat! Your beliefs dont matter in the face of observable reality (CW: Charred body) though. International reports from the time, leaked security cables, credible first hand accounts with corroborating sources and physical evidence, and pictures from the event quite clearly demonstrate the Chinese protesters were violent.
By the logic of you being wrong about something, the other must also be wrong? Either that, or they've actually bothered to learn about the event and you haven't. You can just go look at the first-hand sources and make your own conclusions.
Or you can be a passive-agressive little twerp who cant handle the notion they might have been wrong about something, so instead of doing some simple research (if it can even be called that when all the sources are served up to you on a silver platter) you retreat to a little hugbox where your beliefs are never challenged and you are reinforced as being the cleverest little boy in all the land, I guess. Kinda pathetic though.
