heartbreaking

When Communists hold power, too often we still let libs get away with their petty obstructions and wrecking.

Libs: LOL, China tells the people nothing happened at Tiananmen Square.

"Well, what did happen at Tiananmen Square?"

Libs: Well, they killed people, I think? And there was something about tanks? A protest about... something?

[-] [email protected] 49 points 5 months ago

"Anyway, the point is: CHINA BAD"

[-] [email protected] 31 points 5 months ago

Oh no, libs are very certain of what happened

China came in and massacred thousands of innocent, freedom loving protestors who just were tired of Jorjor Well 1984 gommunism. They killed so many people they had to crush them into paste with tanks and then power wash the remains into the sewers

That's the official lib story for it

[-] [email protected] 72 points 5 months ago

Isn't that the guy that climbed on the tank, annoyed them for a few minutes, then got shooed away by bystanders?

People have some weird thought that this guy died that day. The video exists. https://youtu.be/qq8zFLIftGk

[-] [email protected] 42 points 5 months ago

They think the bystanders were undercover cops and that he was disappeared.

[-] [email protected] 41 points 5 months ago

In the same breath that they say these tanks were on their way to/from smushing all the protesters to pulp and washing it all down the drain (my mom actually told me this)

Of course then you ask why tf this guy got away, they don't believe he did, you show them this, and it's either fake or they couldn't kill him because the media was watching this location. Insanity.

[-] [email protected] 31 points 5 months ago

they couldn't kill him because the media was watching this location

Must blow their mind to know that the media was there all night, and a Chilean ambassador watched everything unfold

[-] [email protected] 28 points 5 months ago

There's never been any actual evidence of that though has there. As far as I know no one ever credibly came forward and said 'I was tank man' or 'my husband / partner / son was tank man's etc. This always seems like speculation based on nothing when I hear it repeated.

[-] [email protected] 19 points 5 months ago

this dude probably tells his story of dunking on tanks at bars and like nobody believes him or cares but they laugh with him and poor him another lol.

[-] [email protected] 23 points 5 months ago

An unfalsifiable orthodoxy.

[-] [email protected] 36 points 5 months ago

In school the teacher showed us the video and then stopped it right when the tank stops in front of him. The teacher then said 'this was the only footage to escape the oppressive communist Chinese government'.

[-] [email protected] 25 points 5 months ago

Lmao what a fucking snake

[-] [email protected] 32 points 5 months ago

Yeah, what the tweet meant is that liberals love to annoy working class people just doing their job.

[-] [email protected] 28 points 5 months ago

I remember the tank man photograph in school text books and posters and boomer memes. Finding out a video exists is like the political version of finding out Santa Clause isn't real.

[-] [email protected] 24 points 5 months ago

If you go to some of the uploads of it on Youtube, the comments are filled with people experiencing the mandela effect like "Whaaaaaa?? I could have sworn I saw this decades ago and he died? Is this edited??"

Turns out that repeating a lie often enough really does make it true

[-] [email protected] 24 points 5 months ago

Liberals will look at this and still think muh 1984 jorjor well totalitarian China carried out a massacre during the June 4th protests. Just look at the comments on the video.

[-] [email protected] 15 points 5 months ago

im so done with these ppl

[-] [email protected] 62 points 5 months ago

Many of the Tienanmen protesters were opposed to Deng's market reforms, and some wanted to return to the Cultural Revolution.

[-] [email protected] 61 points 5 months ago

Libs: "I support you, brave freedom fighters!"

Maoists at Tiananmen Square: "Bring back beating up liberals in the streets!"

[-] [email protected] 24 points 5 months ago

Bring back 批斗大会, currently it's 批斗大 没, I want that 批斗大 回

[-] [email protected] 61 points 5 months ago

So communists are trying to do things, and libs are getting in the way? Sounds about right.

[-] [email protected] 48 points 5 months ago

"I might not like the status quo, but I will give my life to stop leftists from trying to change it!"

[-] [email protected] 27 points 5 months ago

This is a quote from Magnum Force I think.

[-] [email protected] 57 points 5 months ago

Delusional when liberals supported every imperial adventure in the past 40 years. You support sending tanks to Israel, to Russia, to Haiti, to Iraq etcetc.

[-] [email protected] 37 points 5 months ago

Bruh that's to protect democracy and human rights!

[-] [email protected] 45 points 5 months ago

Correct, communists believe in material conditions and that changing anything requires building actual power, liberals believe that ineffectual symbolic protesting is all you can and should do

[-] [email protected] 36 points 5 months ago

And most of the time not even that.

They shouldn't block traffic or disrupt the people in that lobby! They should just vote

[-] [email protected] 32 points 5 months ago

Tank Man is such a perfect symbol of liberal "protest" I honestly love it. Yeah I'm gonna rock up to this place long after all the shit is done going down and I'm going to mildly inconvenience a handful of tank drivers while they're trying to exit. That'll show 'em.

[-] [email protected] 43 points 5 months ago

Liberals think he got run over right? Also they know China is communist, has been for a while, and will be for the foreseeable future...

So this image is saying communists are on the winning side of history and liberals on the losing side by a wide margin?

[-] [email protected] 42 points 5 months ago

Also, does the "Project Liberal" logo look extremely fashy or what?

[-] [email protected] 31 points 5 months ago* (last edited 5 months ago)

Yup, it's somehow giving both fasces and retvrn Greek plinth (though I think it's the latter). Plus phoenix like 'we will rise from flame'

[-] [email protected] 27 points 5 months ago

It looks like the same minimalist crap I'd expect from a Heritage Foundation or Turning Points USA

[-] [email protected] 37 points 5 months ago

Ultimate delusion is thinking that you, as a liberal, are the only thing standing in the way of tankie domination.

Alternative title: When you definitely know what happened to Tank Man.

[-] [email protected] 32 points 5 months ago

In fact, the only thing standing the way of Tankie domination is constant infighting about stacking rocks.

[-] [email protected] 37 points 5 months ago

this tracks because the tanks were leaving the square

[-] [email protected] 26 points 5 months ago

I was gonna say the same thing with an added "and of course the liberal's being fucking annoying while we're trying to go about our day"

making a brief pointless gesture after the fact and materially changing nothing? seems pretty accurate to me

[-] [email protected] 33 points 5 months ago

Folks, people are saying there will be no excuses for the terror

[-] [email protected] 27 points 5 months ago

I'd rather be in the tank. Much better protection from the right.

[-] [email protected] 26 points 5 months ago
[-] [email protected] 25 points 5 months ago

Liberals: "Haha, I'm in danger"

[-] [email protected] 38 points 5 months ago

And yet, much less danger than anyone participating in a BLM protest

[-] [email protected] 23 points 5 months ago* (last edited 5 months ago)

im-doing-my-part standing in the way of progress!

[-] [email protected] 22 points 5 months ago

Surely they will hold annual remembrances to mark the day Israeli armored vehicles drove over a bunch of Palestinians seeking food after shooting into a crowd of them

[-] [email protected] 17 points 5 months ago* (last edited 5 months ago)

What is this saying? That the libs either gave up or accepted a voice of reason, got out of the way voluntarily, and let the communists on through?

Especially when you compare it with the USA, Tank Man was a considerable W for human rights in China.

It's the dunk tank.

This is where you come to post big-brained hot takes by chuds, libs, or even fellow leftists, and tear them to itty-bitty pieces with precision dunkstrikes.

Rule 1: All posts must include links to the subject matter, and no identifying information should be redacted.

Rule 2: If your source is a reactionary website, please use archive.is instead of linking directly.

Rule 3: No sectarianism.

Rule 4: TERF/SWERFs Not Welcome

Rule 5: No ableism of any kind (that includes stuff like libt*rd)

Rule 6: Do not post fellow hexbears.

Rule 7: Do not individually target other instances' admins or moderators.

Rule 8: The subject of a post cannot be low hanging fruit, that is comments/posts made by a private person that have low amount of upvotes/likes/views. Comments/Posts made on other instances that are accessible from hexbear are an exception to this.

Rule 9: if you post ironic rage bait im going to make a personal visit to your house to make sure you never make this mistake again
