I trust a Chinese tank driver more not to drive me over than an ICE agent.

No no. As a tankie - I support you. Fuck ice. Tankies are internationaliststs, not one country above all ists.
Mulligrubs@lemmy.world 28 minutes ago
Those in control of the USA are internationalists, too.
They don’t care who “wins”, they profit off of the war itself.
They love tankies

So according to the tankie narrative, what this woman is really doing is telling them to go back and do their jobs

The difference being that in the original the protester was safe after the fact:

Fun Fact: You can totally Google the Not Safe For Life images of the Tiananmen Square massacre. Tank Man wasn’t ran over, but many other students were.

Bullshit.
If he was alive and well he would have been trotted out to the public as propaganda by the CCP that they weren’t cruel, and instructed to regurgitate some safe speech that toed the Party line.
If he’s lucky he disappeared and kept his mouth shut to survive in silence.
Sources conflict as to his identity, and whether or not he was executed, imprisoned , or lived free.
Not that I expect tankies to think anything other than pro-CCP thought.

Liberals don’t want truth or justice, they want a self serving narrative that disguises their contempt for people they feel are beneath them.

Sorry your feelings got hurt.

A) The image isn’t even an actual event. The person doesn’t exist. Therefore they are neither safe nor unsafe.
B) Sparing the life of one citizen after murdering hundreds is not the flex you think it is

It’s not just an image, it’s a video depicting a column of tanks leaving a Tiananmen square suspiciously empty of squished bodies. Tanks that, after having supposedly finished squishing hundreds of protestors that aren’t seen, just stop for one single guy who stops them and and even talks to the guys inside the first tank.

ICE trucks are Tanks from AliExpress.

It’s refreshing seeing less complaints about AI. Soccer Mums attire is on point.
brucethemoose@lemmy.world 16 hours ago
I mean… I think it’s worrying that the norm is “who cares if it’s AI? It’ll fool idiots, spread it!” If that’s what you mean.
I swear, social media is going to kill us all.
Deceptichum@quokk.au 16 hours ago
Do you really think the intent of ops image is to “fool” people and not to be a parody political commentary?
AntiBullyRanger@ani.social 16 hours ago
I am a tad confused. Is UnderpantsWeevil calling Renee Nicole Good a tankie, or ICE?
Deceptichum@quokk.au 15 hours ago
Tankies aren’t the people in front of the tanks…
AntiBullyRanger@ani.social 15 hours ago
I would hope not🥶
agamemnonymous@sh.itjust.works 15 hours ago
Will, the tanks are replaced with ICE vehicles
AntiBullyRanger@ani.social 15 hours ago
then UnderpantsWeevil should have pluralized: “Tankies”
“Nazis” is perfect for me.

I made this same comparison a few days ago and got down voted to hell for it. Glad I’m not the only one that sees it
