- lazyasciiart 9y agoIt's a lot less charitable than "OP was probably referring to the fact that video evidence shows tank guy being pulled away out of sight before the tanks continued past the point where he had been standing, rather than showing the tanks just rolling over him as that comment kind of implied". If you're going to be very careful to correct people who assert that the guy wasn't crushed, you need to jump on people who say he was crushed too, or you look like you're using the argument as an excuse to attack someone rather than being deeply invested in correctness.
- aaron695 9y agoNo one is talking about tank man. We are talking about the people who were crushed by tanks in the square. Really, most were shot, which is how I'd deal with a trouble maker being filmed like tank man. But there is evidence of tanks crushing people as per my link, which is WHY tank man is famous (plus he was photographed, other people did do it too). Are you doubting tanks rolled over and killed people?
- tinfins 9y agoI was talking about tank man...
- tinfins 9y agoYour assumption was the correct one.
- tinfins 9y agoMy assertion is supported though. Google tank man video.
