I've never seen this angle of Tiananmen Square's tankman before. Figured I would share. (lemmy.world)

Let them not be forgotten

This is a large album of images from the protests in Beijing in 1989. It gives the historical context for the events leading up to the "tank man" photo, and what happened after.

Warning: blood, gore, visible injuries, death

I'll never understand how the tankies can claim it never happened when there's so many pictures like this available.

I uploaded this pictures in my old Xiaomi cloud account. It took almost 100 MB out of 5 GB free space. Other 4.9 GB is taken by Winnie the Pooh pictures and memes about Xi.
