I like that the AI gave the soccer Mom both a soccer ball as well as a soccer purse. Bravo.

AI generated slop, ICE would not have stopped, ICE would have ran her over and told you to ignore your lying eyes.

Do you actually know what happened at Tiananmen Square?
Tank man was the day after. The night before, they turned a massive student protest into a slurry that they plowed into the sewers. There was no shame.
TheObviousSolution@lemmy.ca 1 week ago
You seem to think I’m trying to justify the Tiananmen Square when I’m just putting one particular incident in perspective to how ICE usually acts. Your gross oversimplifcations seem to want to act like whataboutism to how much worse the Tiananmen Square by portraying it into a caricature of “a massive student protest into a slurry that they pushed into the sewers”. It got pretty bad, a lot worse than any particular ICE incident up to date, but in a lot of ways it was served to the people just like ICE is being served up. People in the US should really inform themselves better with nuance, because the nuance is that it’s far closer to how ICE is acting: en.wikipedia.org/…/1989_Tiananmen_Square_protests…
This is only a year into Trump’s second term and it’s already this bad. Just look at how long it took Hitler.

It is photoshopped. US americans don’t have guts to directly confront their government.
Rakonat@lemmy.world 1 week ago
The flaw in your logic is ICE doesn’t have the guts to identify themselves or their vehicles.
Dasus@lemmy.world 1 week ago
I mean, that’s a very sweeping generalisation, which sort of ignores reality. There’s clearly a lot of protesting, and I, as I’m sure you have as well, have seen videos of people being murdered on the street to the cries of “stop resisting” even when the person didn’t do jack shit, only tried to hold on to their 1st and 4th amendment rights. And the end up under the knee of some psycho powertripper, repeating “I can’t breathe” for minutes before finally succumbing to death.
Also nowadays I believe using AI is rather more common than photoshop.

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.
RememberTheApollo_@lemmy.world 1 week ago
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.
Amnesigenic@lemmy.ml 1 week ago
Literally just watch the video
bbboi@feddit.uk 1 week ago
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
Oppopity@lemmy.ml 1 week ago
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.

They don’t care who “wins”, they profit off of the war itself (and the rebuild for that matter).
Then why would they love tankies, some of the only people who consistently oppose them building and using tanks?

All of the ICE vehicles I’ve seen are unmarked, with non-uniformed masked men jumping out of them and attacking people or their vehicles. Maybe 10 years ago, a Florida Man shot a black kid for wearing a hoodie, and got off on “stand your ground laws”. Apparentlly, MAGA thinks “if they could be ICE, give them all your money and vehicles” or you, as domestic terrorist scum, deserve to get killed.

The fact that I trust a Chinese tank driver “more”, doesn’t mean I trust a Chinese tank driver.
It would have been better formed if I said “I distrust a Chinese tank driver less than an ICE agent-”
humanspiral@lemmy.ca 1 week ago
No. The Tianmen Square video is of tank man who made a tank stop instead of running him over. The protests were over a previous (1-3 nights before) protest or, according to Chinese Government, riot where protesters were killed. Deaths did not happen after tankman.
Ledivin@lemmy.world 1 week ago
I wouldn’t trust a single ICE or DHS agent to do the right thing in this situation. We have proof of at least one Chinese tank crew doing so.
How do you define “better”?
