Except the man climbed into the tank but the lady would certainly be trampled, and then get two on the dome.

The history of the protest-turned-riot-turned-massacre is genuinely incredible. I wish more Americans learned enough about Chinese history to understand the significance of the event. It wasn’t just one guy in front of a line of tanks. And the movement didn’t end in Tienamen, either.
Dengism into the 21st century was defined by that movement and the backlash and it’s reverberations. Modern Chinese domestic policy exists as a combination carrot and stick to discourage this kind of insurrection from happening again.
Would that the US people had the kind of courage and social cohesion necessary for a Tienamen in the modern day.
