You can’t park there…
Why is there a picture of this.
It might just be some depth of field fuckery, but i think thats a model
I concur.
I have this on a shirt https://www.thecolacorporation.com/products/be-the-change-1?variant=39776683327559

The car is on public display
I was hoping that they left it on the roof.
It’s a shame that website has such an insuferable cookie wall with all that ‘legitimate’ interest bullshit
But cool picture!
An artifact of democracy 🙏
That’s one funny-looking accordion.
Wow. First fascist I can look up to!
Hardcore as fuuuuuuuuck
I only ever hear about the violent resistance that made things worse, these days. Wonder what that’s about! Great post.
Sometimes we make things better with a little violence
as a treat 😊
Well, if you want to live in violence then yeah go for it. Most people don’t tho.
Violence isn’t a boolean.
To shiv or not to shiv. That is the question.
The American Revolution didn’t go from 0 to 100 with a single violent act, nor was the violence of the Patriots unprovoked - it was caused by the violence of a repressive state apparatus.
Likewise, the Civil Rights Movement never went to the level of civil war - yet violence was still widely used in it. As even the great pacifist MLK Jr. said, and not as an abstract statement divorced from the circumstances of the time, “A riot is the language of the unheard.”
Violence is not a boolean. And disregarding it as a potential tool is foolishness.
True, true. Violence has all kinds of interpretations.
Sometimes is about not living in violence tho. Like, this very post we’re replying to.
Yeah I hear ya. Which one you want? Violence or no violence. C’mon chop chop we gotta get the lunch rush in here.
You’re making me want to choose violence
I lived my life in peace and kindness. We live in violence anyway.
what it’s over? That’s a past tense there. How are you using lemmy from . . y’know . . beyond?
Ah yes, linguistic pragmatics. We have achieved comedy.
Anyone have any information on the photographer?
Were they in on it or did it happen to be press taking a picture of the dude?
The angle seems very convenient.
Either way, great picture.
I think it’s just a mock-up/recreation of the event, not the actual moment.
Tiny quibble: not due to, but had six months previously
I need to read more articles from around that time to put a smile on my face.
Although not too many, as they will start going into “and we gave collaborators of the fascist regime a slap on the wrist, as 10% of the population are fascists, and we can’t jail them all and have a functioning society”
and two generations later, there’s a non-negligible population of gamer-forum dudes without girlfriends who think that the Franco years were a lost golden age to RETVRN to
I wasn’t even specific about Spain/Franco, also, there’s the (Spanish language?) meme about “recuerdas que dice abuelo”/“la dictadura era el mejor cosa que pasó al este país de mierda”.
(Now now sweety, remember what grandpa says/the dictatorship was the best thing to happen to this piece of shit country)
I wish there was a gif/recreation i could watch. Imagine the car going WEEEEEE
There is. A movie was made about the assassination. Operation Ogro
This clip from the movie shows the car explosion: https://youtu.be/VyyRAkoo2ps
Tyty
Does this count as a recreation? https://youtu.be/nGQIQljaAc0
Well, it sure counts as recreational.
DO A KICKFLIP!
For anyone wanting to learn more about this period there’s a great historical movie about it: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Mld-_2peu0E
Even Spain can into space.
