CMV: The United States media has just had a “Tiananmen Square Moment”
In 1989 a mass protest in China devolved into a massacre following a harsh government crackdown.
Now, while this event alone is horrific, the most damning and memorable part of this incident was the mass government cover-up that followed.
While callous to say, massacres and atrocities occur all the time in neglected parts of the world, the most terrifying and relevant aspect to a Western audience is the accessibility and denial of evidence.
Every aspect of the story, despite direct testimony, picture/video evidence, uninvolved observers and even explicit redactions/official story edits was shown to be tightly controlled and presented as evidence of the Chinese state’s devolution into tyranny.
What we see today, in the brutal murder of an unarmed passerby in her car perfectly encapsulates the complete loss of credibility of the American media.
I am a relatively uninvolved individual, with fairly moderate if rightwing views. It is is chilling to be unaware of a story, only to be bombarded by a massive stream of influencers, you-tubers and political figures parroting what is so obviously a fabrications inserted into a developing story.
The time-lines and claims do not make sense, how

Windows Setup fails with “Access is denied” when upgrading via GPO
I need to upgrade our PCs from Windows 10 Enterprise LTSC to Windows 11 Enterprise LTSC. I want to perform the upgrade automatically and silently, so I created a scheduled task using the SYSTEM account via Group Policy to run a script. The main part of the script is the command that runs Windows Setup.
I tested this successfully on my VM (using a domain account without administrator privileges) and on a colleague’s PC (he is a sysadmin and has administrator privileges on his domain account).
However, when I applied the GPO to another department, the scheduled task successfully copied the ISO file from shared storage to the local machine, mounted it, and started the setup process, but the setup failed with the following error:
**“This command cannot be run due to the error: Access is denied.”**
What should I do to troubleshoot this issue? Any help would be appreciated.
