I like the image and messaging. I was thinking of calling them Cybercucks.
Swasticars?
Both. Not all swasticars are Cybercucks, but all Cubercucks are swasticars.
Tesla would be screwed the first time they see a new sign. Machine Learning is about learning from the past but if you don’t have seen it before you might be screwed. But humans can actually think,. even stop and Google the new sign.
Another ironic example of Westerners not understanding what tank man was actually doing: stopping the tanks from leaving Tianmanmen Square. He was doing the opposite of an act of defiance against government involvement; he wanted them to be involved. Also, he left the scene unscathed when other civilians came and scurried him away: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qq8zFLIftGk
Maybe Western media always show us a cropped version of the tank man photo, with Tianmanmen Square removed, because it doesn’t fit in with their narrative.
[Edit to replace deleted YouTube video.]
Jesus fucking christ. I watched this shit happen. I watched the uncut footage air. That man was fucking pissed. He kept blocking the tanks while absolutely losing his shit screaming at the tank. Neither of us was there so neither of us knows why or what he was screaming but it was most definitely a clear act of defiance. You cannot in any way say that he was asking them to “go back” and “stay involved”.
Here is the footage.
While the stroad seem realistic, seeing a pedestrian carrying groceries doesn’t seem like americana iconography.
Blocking the road is not a valid form of protest! runs over pedestrian 🤠
Liberals will kick and scream about the fascism of Tianamen without stopping to ask why the Tank Driver stopped and even tried to drive around Tank Man without success.
The idea that an American civilian could survive getting that close to a military vehicle - that this kind of protest wouldn’t be used to justify his murder - is utterly alien to the Western brain.
So much of this image is pregnant with what Americans understand a US police officer would do to an unarmed protester. You’ll never see pictures of what happened next, because it flies in the face of the narrative.
Look up the Bonus Army, one of many protests that were brutally stomped on by the US military and police.
Where is Tank Man now? I bet he’s a celebrated civil rights icon who freely walks the streets, right? I did see some reporting suggesting he was executed by firing squad but that can’t be right.

The unsourced anecdote as a rebuttal to the live video footage is textbook western discourse. Don’t believe your lying eyes. I know a guy who knows a guy who knows the Real Secret Truth.
