From what I read (yes I actually read the walls of text they post) the two weren't exclusive. There were violent protestors during that time, and the protests in the square were minor, nonviolent, and opposed by dispersion via an announcement rather than tanks.

I'm not sure if I believe all that, but it's better to know what they're actually saying, imo

"I'm not sure if I believe"

There's nothing to believe. Tankie lies are exactly that

So instead of twisting the truth to fit a narrative, they just make shit up?

There were over a 100,000 people at the square protesting. There were priests in over 400 Chinese cities.
