I made this same comparison a few days ago and got down voted to hell for it. Glad I’m not the only one that sees it
I trust a Chinese tank driver more not to drive me over than an ICE agent.
Historically speaking, a safe bet
Depends. At 4am you don’t want to be under tank treads.
No no. As a tankie - I support you. Fuck ice. Tankies are internationaliststs, not one country above all ists.
Those in control of the USA are internationalists, too.
They don’t care who “wins”, they profit off of the war itself (and the rebuild for that matter).
They love tankies
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?
anti-whataboutism
ICE trucks are Tanks from AliExpress.
So according to the tankie narrative, what this woman is really doing is telling them to go back and do their jobs
I don’t care at all of this is im14andthisisdeep. I love it
im21andthisissoooooodeep
Fuck yes you guys are good
In b4 Tallahassee Square
Tankie?
🍿
I am a tad confused. Is UnderpantsWeevil calling Renee Nicole Good a tankie, or ICE?
Tankies aren’t the people in front of the tanks…
I would hope not🥶
Well, the tanks are replaced with ICE vehicles
then UnderpantsWeevil should have pluralized: “Tankies”
“Nazis” is perfect for me.
It’s refreshing seeing less complaints about AI. Soccer Mums attire is on point.
Fuck ICE and fuck AI
And yet you upvoted the meme?
Yup. Can’t win ‘em all.
How can you tell it’s AI? Maybe it’s just photo editing? Who can say
Why not just use it and work with it
Why not just burn down a forest for a bit of a giggle?
Kind of a shit analogy, since forest fires actually help forests 🤷♂️
Not when they also burn down homes because they are out of control due to climate change 🤷🏻🤷♀️🤷🏻♂️
It throttles my gpu less than playing a game does. ‘Spose we should ban gaming too?
Ai uses large servers and data farms. It doesn’t have to throttle your machine because it isn’t using your machine.
You’re on a computer. You probably game too. You’re burning resources where ever you go. We need tools to fight fascists. I say use the tools we have. Without it, they have an advantage being able to create content and analysis. Also forests are fine. Don’t be dramatic. I’m not convinced that bots didn’t drive a lot of AI hate so that the left would hobble itself
Ai uses more resources than that and the tech bros are very responsible for the current fascism and I’m not going to use ai slop tools that are quickly using up the rest of our drinking water.
The Forrest’s are not fine. They burn down every fucking year.
Good to see a healthy attitude to it developing.
Still way too many zealots screeching. But it’s getting there.
You agree with me 99% of the time and not 100% of the time?! DIE!!!
More like, “it’s obviously good sometimes”.
The extremist hardline stance will continue to soften over time to the point people will stop caring at all about it.
Upvote the idea, not the art
Art is the idea, you mean the medium.
I mean… I think it’s worrying that the norm is “who cares if it’s AI? It’ll fool plenty of people, spread it!” If that’s what you mean.
Social media is going to kill us all well before AI does.
Do you really think the intent of ops image is to “fool” people and not to be a parody political commentary?
The difference being that in the original the protester was safe after the fact:
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.
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. Look, see?! He’s alive! There was no massacre! While he regurgitates 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.
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
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.
You should at least learn to comprehend English before spouting bullshit. The OP is an image which actually doesn’t feature any tanks at all! Always these mother fuckers dropping in with copy and paste internet warrior bullshit without even understanding context. This shit has to come from A) low-grade troll farms, B) Terrible LLMs or C) people with inconceivably bad grasp of the English language.
The post I replied to was attempting to compare an actual, factual scenario against an imaginary scenario that never took place where anyway is anything and whisful thinking overrides reality. “Making shit up” to push political agendas is vile and disgusting and is called propaganda.
Governmentz murdering innocent people is bad. Full stop. This isn’t West vs East tribal war bullshit. It’s a damn universal concept. Just swallow that tyrannical governments are bad. It doesn’t matter their location, or politics or ethnicity of the perpetrators. It’s still wrong and will always be wrong.
I hope anybody who disagrees gets everythings they’ve ever dreamed of.
What? Are you talking about the literal op image itself and not what it’s referencing?
And again, I’m highlighting the absurdity the a bunch of tanks that had supposedly just got finished squishing hundreds of protesters and were then leaving the square (that suspiciously doesn’t have hundreds of squished bodies in it) then decide to stop for one dude. How does that make any sense?

Nobody said that? The tank man incident occurred the following day and is a sign of rebellion against a tyrannical government. Nobody except the uneducated or people intentionally obscuring the facts believes both events took place on the same day. Tank man is so powerful because he did it despite the government slaughtering people the day previously. Standing in front of the tank was extremely brave and probably even a little stupid but powerful nonetheless.
This is pretty basic history here. You really think the whole world would make a big hubbub over some rando standing in a street without any further context? People stand in streets everyday and aren’t newsworthy.
Attempting to negate the sacrifice of those killed and belittle them is disgusting and wrong.
The Chinese government, like ALL governments, did a bad thing and the only way we grow as people is to admit this shit happens and learn from it, otherwise we’re repeating the same cycle forever.

Liberals don’t want truth or justice, they want a self serving narrative that disguises their contempt for people they feel are beneath them.
Sorry your feelings got hurt.
