    Did you even read your own articles or did you just cherry-pick quotes? For instance the conclusion of the BBC article:

    There was no Tiananmen Square massacre, but there was a Beijing massacre.

    The shorthand we often use of the “Tiananmen Square protests” of 1989 gives the impression that this was just a Beijing issue. It was not.

    Protests occurred in almost every city in China (even in a town on the edge of the Gobi desert).

    What happened in 1989 was by far the most widespread pro-democracy upheaval in communist China’s history. It was also by far the bloodiest suppression of peaceful dissent.
