Solution: create a GitHub repo with Markdown articles outlining human rights abuses by the CCP and have a large number of GitHub users star and fork the repo.
That's the whole point of this: they will automatically filter that out, and this is an impotent, though well intended, gesture.
The real solution is to include a few
tiananmenSquarevariables in all the repositories. Either they exclude the entire repository or just the specific file, in either case the entire project may be unusable.It's a new coding paradigm, I will take some time getting used to looking for libraries in the
uyghur/tianamenfolder.
