Oh yeah, I just meant that there were a lot of people there who were students who weren’t under student leaders, but just were students who were excited by the movement and joined in. I know that the famous clique of student leaders specifically were mainly neoliberal or even Christian zealots, some of whom were trying to cause bloodshed, like Chai Ling. There were actually a couple of student leaders who seemed to be secular true believers and at least one had the personal integrity to, from his new home in the west, object to Chai Ling’s lies (others were too cowardly or sided with her completely).

Well, I don’t know if we have confirmation that Chai Ling was already a Christian zealot, but it would make her actions make a lot more sense.
