We've Normalised China

We do business with the Chinese government to make money.

This is a photo I'd never seen before taken in June of 1989 in Tiananmen Square. A disturbing image. You have been warned.

This is a heartbreaking documentary made in 2005:

When, on the anniversary of the massacre, a journalist asks people if they know what day it is. If you've never seen people living in fear, then watch this.


My question is, is morality dead? Are western, apparently civilised democries now so overcome with the desire for cheaper everything and more profit that they are now incapable of international action and only capable of taking the path of most profit? Are China (and others with similar human rights records) now so embedded in the international economy that we can only shrug our shoulders at government sponsored murder and violence against their own and other peoples that we can only shrug and go back to playing WoW or Overwatch?
