Here’s what i post whenever it comes up, its an honestly an impressive feat of western propaganda that so many have seen that single frame but not the whole video:
Full tankman video where the tankers go to lengths to avoid harming him, he’s able to climb on the tank and then walk away with no repercussions:
Standoff, lil’ dance, mans climbs on the tank then gets off. The tankers open some hatches and there’s some sort of conversation, then some people from the (presumed, offscreen) crowd run in and move him away.
Pretty obvious that the civilians are surprisingly unafraid of the war machines and the soldiers, and conversely the soldiers aren’t acting afraid of the crowd
What happened to the tank guy in Tiananmen square?

Just a few examples(out of many) of US state forces running over protestors in the last couple of years:

Climbed up the tank. Said hi to the tank operator. Climbed down. Got escorted out by student protesters.
After climbing on the tank a few times, and talking with the tank commander, he was eventually lead away by some other onlookers completely unharmed.
US cops have killed ~600 people so far this year.
kinda goofy tbh
