Laughably false image. The zionist entity tank would NOT stop. The American tank would NOT stop. The British tank would NOT stop. The German tank would NOT stop.
And nearly all of them would say the protestor was a terrorist and justify it would say they were antisemitic and deserved it, would slander their character in death and use it to justify a crackdown on speech because they want to prevent more people acting like that.
The zionist entity tank would NOT stop. The American tank would NOT stop. The British tank would NOT stop. The German tank would NOT stop.
The problem is that Westerners were and are to assume that Tank Man got squished, despite the photographic & video evidence to the contrary. It was an exemplary work of propaganda, and I’m pretty sure most people ate that onion whole.

That's what I hate about so many western people who even in beginning to question the propaganda of today repeat yesterday's thoughtlessly. How they never stopping to consider how in the west they murder people all the time openly. They kneel on people's necks, they choke them out, they do no-knocks and shoot people dead. Leadership of police accountability organizations like BLM wind up dying in statistically suspicious numbers in traffic accidents and similar. They assassinate MLK and Fred Hampton, they bomb residential buildings, they shoot unarmed college students. Yet a picture of a tank refusing to run over a guy is not only proof of how evil and callous a certain other country was in 1989 but a reason to continue repeating the image. An image motif pushed deliberately by the spy agencies and military psyops and dishonest genocide abetting press of the countries in the image so that we don't say adopt an image of American atrocities which don't end with the guy walking off but with them a splatter on the pavement or financially ruined and in jail. So that even in criticizing these countries, you uphold their narratives in the motif of the image you chose which is to slander another nation and helpfully deflect some people into thinking things like "at least we're not that other country yet, bad as we are, they're badder". Even in criticizing them you do their dirty work by using their tools, their narrative, their framing.
People not only don't know what's happening to them, they don't even know that they don't know.
Try to tell them and,
Would stop, but only to avoid creating a martyr.
not at all. first of all the IOF kill people for sport. literally maiming children deliberately as a game, for fun. if they worried about martyrs they would at least hesitate to kill aid workers from other countries. they don't care because they're not people. they're demons.
Israel's tank doesn't stop. Just ask Rachel Corrie
What are we, a bunch of Asians?
Those tanks refer to regimes and governments, not the people, there are good people and bad people everywhere in every country.
This "blame the government not the people" schtick has got to go..
This thinking is just an attempt to resolve a cognitive dissonance or something. Basically, it ends up looking like you coyly address the issue without trying to anger anyone, which ends up watering down the whole point...
Fuck it, just say "Fuck America" because Fuck America, "Fuck the EU" because fuck the EU and I don't only mean the countries within the union and "Fuck the Commonwealth" because fuck the Commonwealth. No punch pullsies. And no hiding behind a palatable Tank Man for Westoids to reinforce their biases, even in good meaning.
I get the intent here, but Tank Man as a symbol of defiance against tyranny is a product of US ant-China/anti-communist propaganda. Previously:
It may surprise you to learn that tank man was standing in the way of tanks leaving the square and going back to base. After climbing on to the tank and talking with the crew, he eventually left the area with some other civilians.

I hate ant-China! You can never get the bowls clean enough and the plates barely hold anything.
Not enough Arab autocracies in line there. Egypt and Saudi get much less hate about their role in the genocide than they deserve.
Those arab countries was bough by the usa to support israel. Still not excusing their complicities
