Well, kind of, but the problem here is Trump saying he will cancel the contracts.

SpaceX would be bound by their contracts, so if they are signed and Trump does not rip them up, then Elon cannot just walk away.

My argument was related to the APC. Which is factually true.

Your quote however is very selective.

On the evening of 2 June, an accident occurred in which a PAP jeep ran onto a sidewalk, killing three civilian pedestrians and injuring a fourth. This incident sparked fear that the army and the police were trying to advance into Tiananmen Square.[159] Student leaders issued emergency orders to set up roadblocks at major intersections to prevent the entry of troops into the centre of the city.[160]

On the morning of 3 June, students and citizens intercepted and questioned a busload of plainclothed soldiers at Xinjiekou. Isolated pockets of soldiers were similarly surrounded and interrogated.[161][56]

The soldiers were beaten by the crowd, as were Beijing security personnel who attempted to aid the soldiers. Some of the soldiers were kidnapped when they attempted to head for the hospital.[160] Several other buses carrying weapons, gear, and supplies were intercepted and boarded around Tiananmen.[160]

At 1 pm, a crowd intercepted one of these buses at Liubukou, and several men raised military helmets on bayonets to show the rest of the crowd.[162] At 2:30 pm, a clash broke out between protesters and police.[163][160] The police attempted to disperse the crowd with tear gas, but demonstrators counterattacked and threw rocks, forcing them to retreat inside the Zhongnanhai compound through the west gate.

The protesters on the square did not get shot. The Western media confirms nobody of the peaceful protesters on the square got killed.

Violent rioters who stoned and burnt police did get killed. On day4. There weer already multiple police killed on day3. Even Western media acknowledges all of what I am saying happened.

The censorship of the event also speaks a great deal about who's fault it is.

The amazing amount of misinformation being spread here says a lot more about how insane the Western brainwashing machine is.

Armed rioters burning cops alive are not "student protesters".

The US media somehow manages to switch the two around for their propaganda purposes.

You apparently cannot tell the difference either.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/1989_Tiananmen_Square_protests_and_massacre

Demonstrators attacked troops with poles, rocks, and molotov cocktails; Jeff Widener reported witnessing rioters setting fire to military vehicles and beating the soldiers inside them to death.[178] On one avenue in western Beijing, anti-government protestors torched a military convoy of more than 100 trucks and armored vehicles.[179] They also hijacked an armored personnel carrier, taking it on a joy ride. These scenes were captured on camera and broadcast by Chinese state television.[180]

Good old peaceful demonstration strikes again. Luckily those students were not doing anything violent such as holding up a Palestine flag. Then the US media would tell us how violence against them is fully justified

It is a classic colonial tactic. Get some collaborators to play allies and say that the locals love you.

Especially this video where the 'students' hijacked a tank and fired it.

Never seen again means: nobody saw him again. This means you would know who it is. Which you do not. If the army wanted to run him over they would have simply run him over.

Kanye when he makes a whole Nazi album to one-up Elon for attentionN and then gets beaten in one Tweet

Do you know who it is?

The death toll of Tiannenmen riots is around 300. You would think it was 300.000 from the amound of posts we see about it.

Current casualty count in Gaza is about 200 times higher than Tiannenmen.

Oh no he pulls out the image implying that the tank ran over a protester on the square!

But he forgets that there is a video

Of a man who blocks tanks driving away from the square... and... climbing on top of a military vehicle???!!

What do you think would happen in America to someone who climbed on top of a tank and opened the hatch? And even still, he did not get shot but simply escorted away. Amazing.

"Students" hahaha. Nice of you to leave out that the rioters started attacking the police first and literally burned police officiers alive. The peaceful protesters at the square were not attacked.

There are actual events you can point to in which China represses their population. This is probably the dumbest one because extreme restraint was shown from the Chinese authorities.

If it was America the guy blocking the tank from leaving the square would have been run over. And you would probably be screaming fafo.

Never forget when the CIA organised an armed color revolution which resulted into people shooting at the Chinese military. The clashes outsider of the square, not on it as the name suggests, resulted in a total of around 300 deaths.

Tiananmen has to be the dumbest propaganda pount because it is so incredibly easy to debunk for anyone who has basic access to a search machine. The CIA literally admitted they backed the riots.

The sheer hypocrisy of posting this while the American government is arming a live streamed genocide with over 60.000, likely more than 200.00p killed.

Your premise is not false, but the Trump family is not 'the common man getting cut off from the system'.

Their speech suggestes they got debanked. But what actually happened is that banks refused to loan them money.

I do not think anyone has a sacred right to lend money in order to invest in real estate.

Microsoft Recall: Amateurs!

There is nothing wrong with his statement. The GHF CEO backs the "Trump Gaza" plan and lies and covers for Israel.

America is directly committing the genocide now.

Would you appreciate it if someone came into every thread about Israel and started yelling about how this is all the fault of Atheism?

The IDF is likely spraying bullets into the crowd from a long distance. Akin to this video (not nsfw) https://i.imgur.com/jkkPV5T.mp4
