May it never be forgotten.

Already in Hong Kong there have been arrests, but the vigil culture has largely disappeared now since the National Security Law came into place in 2020. And on the mainland, well, there's never anything because it has been erased from history so nobody even knows about it. But the memory of Tank Man and the lives lost at the hands of Deng Xiaoping and the CCP still live on outside of Chinese borders. There's vigils in the US and UK among other places, and the pillar of shame has been erected in Germany (since it was removed from Hong Kong).

Funnily enough even SiTong Bridge in Beijing is a sensitive term in China now since the protestby the citizen hero named "Bridge Man" last year - he's probably dead now.

Anyway, there are lots of people in China (and especially Hong Kong) that dislike the CCP and can see them for what they are; a mafia. There are clever people in China. They're not all braindead drones. It's just they have a relatively small voice when the proverbial government boot is permanently on their throats.

Yes, it can be very frustrating with western governments. They do sell their countries out in the pursuit to balance the economic with the political/ideological battles against China, and I've been frustrated with many opinions and actions from people like Trudeau, Macron, even Sunak and Boris over the years, but I do see things changing and they are moving slowly in the right direction, particularly with the recent Hiroshima G7 summit's focus being on countering China's economic coercion, and the US's CHIPs act. But America is steaming ahead with it. Us Europeans aren't as hawkish, not as forthright, as our economies are more at risk in terms of decoupling from China. The west is fighting clever against China in the grand scheme of things, in my opinion, but it just takes time. It's containment by a thousand cuts and a thousand weeks.

But I share your disdain for western governments when it constantly feels like three steps forward two steps back.

This man will be disappeared shortly, but fair play to him for speaking out.
