This shit has seriously gone on too long. People who continue to cling to the "10,000 dead crushed by tanks hosed i to the gutter" bs are cranks. It's jews control the banks, chemtrails, the earth is flat, the moon isn't real level of crank shit and unless you're feeling very indulgent and someone is asking in good faith it can be dismissed as equally serious to that kind of crank shit.

Literally is on the same level. Like you got people who think the DPRK is one giant stage show put on to fool people that it's a functional country. Then you got the same people who believe the earth is flat and NASA doctors the space shuttle footage ahead of time to keep the proles from knowing the truth. same-picture

clueless

Sorry comrades, I'm absolutely clueless

Can someone please explain this event to me? I know it's grossly exaggerated and there's some CIA elements to it like operation yellowbird but I can't seem to get over the rut of smuglord fucks enthusiastically using it to shut me down when we have a discussion.

Someone posted a huge photo essay and... it pretty well supports what actually happened. There are dead people, soldiers and civilians. It shows maybe, idk, 20-30 dead civvies, along with a fair number of dead soldiers. And the captions keep leading and leading and leading, but the pictures show what happened - A lot of PLA soldiers were burned to death in their trucks and APCs, there was some street fighting that resulted in a few hundred total deaths, there was no violence on the square, the PLA was unarmed until they sent in armed units to fight the insurgents. It's fucking awesome. Do not believe your lying eyes!

Note that it is NSFL; Graphic pictures of dead and injured people.
