For many years I had never seen the extraordinary fully zoomed out Tank Man photo

Today in China even the tiniest reference of Tiananmen Square or 6/4 (June 4) is live-censored by the CCP’s dynamic AI-powered surveillance system. Slowly erasing the event from people’s minds and family histories

Even imagery (for example a photo sent of 6 leaves and 4 flowers) is instablocked, with punishment sure to follow

THAT is the technological environment we must find ways for freedom to survive in

I absolutely believe it will happen. Life finds a way. Tyrants and empires always fall. But it won’t be easy or handed to us on a silver platter

In the full image you can see that he is stopping tanks from leaving the square, not the other way around as it is usually portrayed

yep. their LLMs suck too in terms of human alignment.

Thanks for the photo. I have never seen this wide shot 👍

It's not real

The palantir Zionist slave system will make sure we never question the holohoax.

They use the photo for paliwood productions.

The mountains are high, and the Emperor is far away.

It’s not only China communist party we should fear, the west is going the same direction if Palentir gets it way

Tyranny requires constant maintenance. In the long run cracks always appear, but if you don’t prevent it from happening, suffering is guaranteed and you may not live to see the end of it. That’s why we should always fight it before it takes root.

Great quote love that show

Only the first sentence is from the show, the rest me ranting 😂

Andor (and Star Wars) is the greatest analogy to the battle Bitcoin is fighting. Nemik’s manifesto was 👌👌

Think of what has been erased from the rest of the world’s history and what has been rewritten.

is there any proof for this photo being real? just asking because i saw a lot of expanded images with ai

Lots

I feel sure i heard some noise about this being not real a couple of days ago, anyone else?

If you want a "blue screen" on deepseek, just ask what happen there :

🙈 🙊 🙉

lol just tried asking...."Sorry, that's beyond my current scope. Let’s talk about something else." Then I asked it about how HK had changed since 1997 and it actually wrote a whole block of text and then that was replaced with the same "Sorry, that's beyond my current scope. Let’s talk about something else." message!

I've walked Tiananmen Square, during the time that I taught in Beijing. It was surreal, with the same party in power as when the June 4th Massacre occurred. Instead of people being killed for their protests for freedom like during the Tiananmen Square Massacre, some day China will walk free from the CCP into their destiny.

First time I see the zoom out picture 🙏

everyone remembers the one man - but forgets the others that were killed to stop the revolution

Did that guy made a petition first to his local government to stop the tanks ?

So "gladstein" can you please explain why you are sharing an ai generated photo and using it to spread fake history?

The body of a dead soldier, who was lynched and burned.

Beijing, China, June 4, 1989

So the truth is that you are just another evil zionist that hates the west and wants to make up excuses for WWIII?

Referring the the truth as CCP propaganda does not help your case. Putrid zionist scum

Here is the original footage that the tank man image was taken from.

https://youtu.be/YeFzeNAHEhU

Anyone know what happened to this guy? Probably got turned into a pancake or worse

He blocked the tanks for a couple minutes before other pedestrians stopped and spoke to him and one of them pushed him out of the way so he wasn't blocking the tanks.

I will post some real photos from Tiananmen square that are not "AI enhanced" trigger warning if I can find the photos of dead soldiers, may take me a moment.

" Peaceful protesters"

Can you imagine how the USA government would have responded if Americans "protested" like this? (All of these photos are from BEFORE the tank man video)

Most of the photos I posted in this thread came directly from western journalists who were in Beijing at the time.

Your government pushes these "peaceful protests" narratives to justify its own slaughter of actual peaceful protesters.

For big companies you need big men and big losses. All empires sooner or later collapse if there are tenacious people fighting them 💪🏴‍☠️

Is it amazing that many of us in the West thought he got trampled by the tank, when he never did?

While at the same time our govts mass murder innocent kids in gaza and we try to ignore it?

China? I'm much more worried about America and Australia manipulating history.

As an Australian, I concur, Australia is fucked.

Translated to Australian "She's fucked mate". 😭

Sorry i don't completely agree with you.

"Is it amazing that many of us in the West thought he got trampled by the tank, when he never did?"

True, we don't know what happen to him. Another proof that china is just trying to erase this story :

"While at the same time our govts mass murder innocent kids in gaza and we try to ignore it?"

Sorry i don't agree. "our govts" are trying to do something, and people too, but the one in charge is the butcher Netanyahu. We can't send an atomic bomb on him so we just do our best. But certainly not stay there eating pop corns. Another proof :

"China? I'm much more worried about America and Australia manipulating history."

Really ? Take a look :

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_genocides

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Persecution_of_Uyghurs_in_China

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Annexation_of_Tibet_by_the_People%27s_Republic_of_China

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Taiwan,_China

I agree America and Australia can manipulate history too, of course, but not at the same level as dictatorship can.

Thank you for this opinion share.

For the first one, you can find the video easily online. The tank drives around him, and continues on its way.

For the others, first, the mainstream media (Wikipedia) is not a source of information.

If you want to know more about Xinjiang, go there. I have. There is a genuine independence movement there, which the Chinese government surpresses. There is no genocide though.

"the mainstream media (Wikipedia) is not a source of information. "

As many other sources, including you. (they also have multiple source where they take the news, in the page bottom).

"go there. I have"

At this game no one can be trusted. why should i trust you more than "others" ?

Genocide is not only about killing people or torture them.

It's also about killing their culture.

Like north-american have done with indians a long time ago.

China do the exactly same with Uyghurs erasing their culture and what they are, with a birth control, to make them be less and less in quantity in future.

It is easy for china gov. to mute internal voices. But it is a lot more harder when they come from foreign free speech countries.
