Why does it say nothing about the 1989 protests on Tiananmen Square, Beijing? (lemmygrad.ml)

In this article on baidu, there is a gap between 1988 and 1999, why is there nothing about some kind of protest that everyone keeps telling me about?

Edit: Thank you for responding, you have taught me a great deal about the usage and necessity of propaganda, counter-propaganda and censorship in a Marxist-Leninist state like China. Although some relied upon lies and insults as a means of trying to win an argunent, I got actual contentful theoretical education out of this, thanks.

No incident happens isolated, only maybe american metaphysical social science professors would analyse it like that. Anyone that has been taught in historical and dialectical materialism will know how to view things like that.

Thank you for the response

No worries. It looks like you've been given a lot of links and stuff to mull over in this thread, and I've enjoyed reading some of the explanations too. I'll leave you to it and am happy to do further digging if you have questions and I have the time. Searching the Chinese web requires a bit more effort and know-how.
