Boy was i thinking 'calmly standing vs shouting at a car' before the video progressed.

In reverse: In MH

Tank man is funny because it's like "look at this brave man standing against an oppressive regime. Nobody knows what happened to him afterwards" As if they'd actually care. If it were to happen in America there's a very good chance he would've been runover for disrupting traffic.

Fucking redditors think he WAS run over

The extended footage shows the guy shuffling off. The Reddit version has his pulped remains being firehosed down the gutter.

in 2020 there were multiple instances of NYPD actually running over protestors

e: looks like there's an even better comparison earlier in this thread. every accusation of brutality is, in fact, a confession

[-] glans@hexbear.net 5 points 1 week ago

It wouldn't even have to go over the curb to drive around him because the there is such a wide depressed curb for pedestrian crossing.
