Well, it’s true that this is very simple. I wanted the poster’s source – if there is one. Unless you’re claiming to be them, you don’t have that information.

But since you seem very interested, do you personally think the CCP death estimate you keep presenting is accurate?

You say the commenter above was wrong, but your tone suggests you still agree with them. Do you believe the rest of their narrative that student protestors were peacefully dispersed in song by the unarmed army choir?

Do you recognize that CPC has a conflict of interest in providing accurate information about this, and that they continue to censor information about it to this day?

So just to clarify, you think that:

1.) you can provide the correct source for another person’s statement

2.) what you posted qualifies as a source even though you did not give one

3.) it’s OK if the statement does not agree with the source

4.) you can justify your misattribution by cherry-picking a number that “roughly” agrees if you massage it

Bruh.

IDK why you’re trying to source someone else’s comment for them, but if you read the comment and the wiki you would see that they are not in agreement.

This is why I asked for their source. Sorry if you find that offensive for some reason lol

Since we’re evidently reading the same Wikipedia article, I’ll point out that those are among the lowest estimates on the page and the Beijing hospital record was 478 dead and 920 wounded.

But these are all very different numbers from what was commented.

Do you have a source for your estimate of deaths? 100+ is very ambiguous since it includes any number >100, which seems already beyond contention.
