So... When you were there, how many monuments did you see celebrating Mao's Great Leap Forward (20 million deaths) and Mao's Cultural Revolution (hundreds of thousands more)?

And when you visited TianAnMen square there in central Beijing I'm sure you couldn't have missed the memorial to the 1989 massacre of students by Peoples Liberation Army tanks...

Maybe we should say the Chinese know and study the version of history that the Communist Party finds it convenient to teach them. Other ideas not welcome.
