Jokes aside the wide shot of the tank guy is fucking haunting
I'm putting it in a spoiler tag because it's a big image

lmao yeah, people only every show the wide angle thing and act like he died. bruh the video exists and he gets in the way, and climbs on the fucking thing and the guys inside fucking stop the tank. If it was american pigs or boots in the same situation they would have just run him over. Speaking from experience almost getting hit by a pigmobile at protest.
So you imply that one can just protest what goes on in the autocracy and get away with it? A bold assumption, really

But for real, with the prevalence of AI its only a matter of time before the narrative becomes that it never happened and the photo we're all familiar with is just an AI fake.
And it wont matter howe much evidence there is that the photo existed for decades before good AI, that can just be handwaved away. We are truly in the post-truth era.

It can not be handwaved away. How much do for example evangelists convince you that fossils are artificial and don't support evolution theory?
Because creationist theory is based on unprovable spiritual stuff. It's much easier to believe "oh that's just western propaganda" than it is to believe "yes the omniscient sky dude put these fake bones here on purpose to test our loyalty to him"
What would be the point of trying to censor the tank man photo? People act like he was killed or something - he just stopped in front of the tanks, climbed on one for a minute, then was led away by bystanders. https://youtu.be/qq8zFLIftGk

It's by far the most widely know photo from the incident and the CCP already denies anything happened on that day. Other than a change to their "outright ignore its existence policy" then why wouldnt they try and censor it?
