Tankman travels through time!
Direct link to the actual toot source.
The second image is a bit on the nose IMO. The comparison was clear enough from the original. And yeah maybe some people need it pointed out to them, but I suspect those people are also the ones who will reject the idea regardless.
i didn’t even see the guy in the first picture until i looked at the second and realized what i should be looking for
Huh, fair enough.
There are probably some out there, especially younger people or those who have only recently started educating themselves, who simply haven’t seen the second image before.
Maybe, but I’d say if they don’t know Tank Man, seeing it in this context without further explanation is still unhelpful. Because they’re likely to think it’s a photo taken in America today.
I’m just thinking about the Venn diagram of people who know who George Takei is, are of the right kind of mind that they would actually see the link between the two images, but have not seen the second image.
Probably not a huge overlap but then again adding it for even just a few doesn’t do any harm.
not to mention the amount of people who dont know its a still of a video with tiananmen square in the background.
One person stopping a vehicle, the other judging the people in the vehicle like a disappointed parent.
“Do your mothers know what you’re doing?”
“Would your Grandmother be happy with you right now?”
Wait until the tankies come in here and tell you this guy was trying to stop them from leaving and asking them to go back and detain more immigrants while also claiming there were no immigrants there anyways
If you are talking about tank man i can just show you you can clearly see tiananmen square in the background and the direction the tanks are going and where the guy is pointing.
10 men!
In the U.S, our tanks would run them over
I want to see the US soldier who swore to uphold the US Constitution operating a tank run down US citizens on US soil. Then we will know for sure China has won.
Is this the operation where their was child labour of illegal immigrants and then someone started shooting at the ice officers?
LOL, nice try with the blatant dishonest spin. Too bad your attempt to falsely paint ICE as the ‘good guys’ falls flat if you’ve got two brain cells to rub together and realize that they were there to kidnap the workers, not arrest the owners.
You mean unlike using real American citizens’ children as laborers, legally? Because I’m pretty sure the current administration is all for legalizing child labour.
I dunno, last I heard about child labour from the US was all those factories being busted employing children. But I might get it confused with the children being shot in school, or the children with cancer being sent to Auschwitz. Its’ really hard to tell, what I do know is that the Republicans care about children and this is reflected in their actions.
As for shooting ICE, that’s a civic duty.
I believe there’s a whole section in the American Constitution that essentially covers this eventuality.
And I’m sure those poor exploited children will be so much happier in El Salvador.
