COMRADES, REMEMBER TIANANMEN SQUARE?


COMRADES, REMEMBER TIANANMEN SQUARE?

Remember Tiananmen Square? The night of June 3-4, 1989 when thousands of pro-democracy students were shot to silence by China's brutal regime exhibiting the barbaric ideology of communism in all its savage nakedness. So many were mowed down by Chinese tanks that recounting the events is horrific.

Those who eulogise communism need to answer why their chosen ideology has perpetrated so much violence against innocent civilians throughout the world, crushed dissent by force, obliterated human rights and individual liberty, and silenced the voice of freedom by the use of force that outmatches fascist violence by miles. What is it that holds our Indian communists hostage to admiration of such an anti-human philosophy whose stated objective is to seize power by the barrel of the gun, to quote Mao?

I await your answers, O tall-talking comrades of the red salute, you who denounce fascism at every bend and turn (not that I am in favour of it), so much so that even Netaji you would not spare from your perfidious verbal assault in the name of world socialist solidarity, but cannot quite come to be critical of your own held horrendous inhuman philosophy with whose crude application you hope to bring about the salvation of the masses. Think well now and dare to counter this scathing diatribe that I make against you and your cherished ideology.

Now answer.
