Among all these pictures there is exactly 1, the first one that would be an example of someone living in an important place, a middle of a road, and refusing to move.

And the occupied place isn't very important to the state, but rather only to a couple of residents.

All others just show that demolitions have started, and there are houses not yet demolished.

0/1.4 billions of people is actually convincing the other way you intended.

This reply doesn't make a lick of sense. You're just making things up off the top of your head.

The point is that China doesn't "just crush" dissenters. This is ignorant Western fantasy which is used by people to justify the dismantling of their own rights. China needs a Bill of Rights like the US's, and most of the US populace needs to stop being such a sucker for nearly century-old propaganda that it doesn't burn its own treasure in service of elite-propagated paranoia.
