Yea that was the version I was “taught”, that no one knows who is is or what happened to him and obviously that means the communist party disappeared him
Western media loves to talk about disappearances because you can say anyone has “disappeared” if they’ve just been out of the public eye for a bit. The audience is led to believe the implication that they were killed or imprisoned at some black site, but since the source never actually said that they technically didn’t say anything false, even if they were perfectly fine the whole time.
Anybody remember that tennis player, Peng Shuai? I had a lib I know irl hit me with it as evidence that China was disappearing dissidents. I mentioned the above to him, and then, sure enough, she got Juche necromancy-ed.
Meanwhile, in America, where the cops kick your door down at 3am and your family doesn’t have any idea where you’ve gone or what happened to you…
Not to mention the literally millions of undocumented people who get kidnapped and shipped somewhere. Even the government admits it doesn’t know what happens to some of them.
Yeah, a bunch of people grabbed him and were like “Dude there is literally shooting a few blocks from here get out of the way of the tanks and get to cover”. But they were just people, not evil SEE SEE PEE death spies.
ummm nice try tankie scum but i’ve seen video footage of the evil dick sucking dungeons of the orient, i know what you communist monsters did to that poor hero
I remember being sat in my classroom as a primary school kid with my teacher showing us that photo on the newspaper days after the event and him telling us to think about what happened to that poor brave man.
He probably went home to clean up, and later hooked up with some PLA Chad for a romantic dinner. When he climbed on the tank for a chat he was actually exchanging numbers.

I didn’t know there was a video of tank man until like two years ago. It was always shown as an image with the implication he was then killed
i distinctly remember being ‘informed’ that “right after this photo, he was disappeared by the secret police and never seen or heard from again!”

Now there’s a man who could have done with a little Juche necromancy.
When really he was just some guy and it was 1989 so it’s not like there was social media or anything to identify him.
“whenever tank man isn’t on screen, all the other characters should be asking, ‘where’s tank man?’” but genuinely
funny how that works

My theory, based on the fact that he had a shopping bag, was that the dude in the tank was his son:
“Hey, didn’t I tell you grandma and grandpa are coming over tonight?”
“Uh, yeah dad, could we talk about this later?”
“No. And do you remember how I specifically asked you to pick up some lettuce and tomatoes on the way to work?”
“Uh, dad, we’re kind of holding up traffic here… WHAT THE HELL, DAD PLEASE GET OFF THE TANK, PLEASE, YOU’RE EMBARASSING ME”
Tank Man was later given a medal for Most Epic Dad Moment
Aww, that would be so romantic
