parliamo di #Cina
#Tiananmen89
oggi è il 4 giugno

in questo giorno 34 anni fa
la speranza della Democrazia in Cina è morta
sotto i cingoli dei carri armati dell'Esercito popolare di Liberazione

un esercito fatto di persone del popolo
creato per dare voce al popolo
che uccide⬇️ Image
il popolo che avrebbe dovuto difendere

gli studenti si erano riuniti pacificamente in piazza
e chiedevano un dialogo al governo
chiedevano democrazia
e aspiravano alle elezioni

tutte cose che nel lontano 89 sembravano ancora possibili

il PCC nella persona di Deng Xiaoping⬇️ Image
respinse tutte le richieste
prima tra tutte
quella di ascoltare i ragazzi

le proteste montarono in tutta la Cina

dapprima i soldati chiamati in piazza a Pechino
non credevano di dover andare sul serio a sgombrare la piazza
le gente li aspettava e li fermò per qualche giorno⬇️ Image
