      kinda goofy tbh

      Standoff, lil’ dance, mans climbs on the tank then gets off. The tankers open some hatches and there’s some sort of conversation, then some people from the (presumed, offscreen) crowd run in and move him away.

      Pretty obvious that the civilians are surprisingly unafraid of the war machines and the soldiers, and conversely the soldiers aren’t acting afraid of the crowd

    I’ll give a hint because it might be a harder question to some people than one would think.

      Oh god, not the poor:

      • bicycles

      • like 5 people who are clearly alive and hunkering down on the ground with their heads raised to look around

      • zero blood despite stories of “blood everywhere, being hosed into the gutters”

      “NSFL” lol dude this picture contains less violence than your average bar fight

      How the fuck you think that all the shit on the ground is dead people, without any sign of blood or debri from explosions/shooting/tanks running over shit. Is a fucking parking lot with tons of empty bicycles on the ground, even the people on top of the bicycles are not running for their life. Holy fucking shit.

      a black and white picture of a bunch of living people and broken bikes

      I’ve come to the conclusion that you must be a bicycle. I am very sorry for the trauma this picture has caused by showing your fallen comrades

      Did you realize that if you simply don’t posts these sorts of comments then you won’t not expose yourself as an imbecile in public?

      Ever wonder why you never see the high resolution/color original version of this photo?

      Because everything pointed out in the annotated version in the replies to this is immediately obvious, and because you can see the burned out bus with dead soldiers’ bodies hanging from it, which supports the Chinese narrative that soldiers were burned alive and makes the US/British narrative that the soldiers launched an unprovoked attack on a peaceful protest seem silly.
