Oh, and it actively tries to censor and erase the fact that it ran down its own citizens with tanks.

Are you saying that China doesn't censor or try to hide this? Can I just go to Tienanmen square and start talking to locals about what happened there and they'll openly talk about how awful it was?

While we're on the subject of propaganda: what was it that made you believe China "ran down its own citizens with tanks"? What is the actual source of this belief.

"I saw a picture of a man in front of a tank, and we all know how evil chinese people are, so it's not hard to figure out what happened."

That's my assumption, yes.
