It's the 1989 Tiemaman square Tank Man picture and Xi Jinping as Whinnie the Pooh, images commonly censored in China as one of them demonstrates clear oppression and the other discredits the CCP.
Oppression is when you stand in the way of a tank and the tank stops for you, and then you climb on top of the tank and have a conversation with the guy in the tank, and then you walk off completely unharmed
Reporters were kept away by force and the CCP tried as hard as they could to hide all evidence. Crushed protestors were washed down drains with hoses, and many were whisked away to secret graves. Despite this, there is still significant photographic evidence
We've seen it and we've seen the alternative narrative. We tend to disagree with the US and their propaganda machine. Maybe you should question why you would believe them too? When has US propaganda lied?
There were actually numerous western reporters in the square and they all say nobody died there, some of them sent off diplomatic cables the same or the next day saying so, which were released by Wikileaks.
Things can undergo a transformation, just because the original usage might have been innocent. If something starts being used by white racists or western imperialists in a racist way, would ya look at that, it’s racist.
Also, it’s covert racism. It gives people plausible deniability. Like you are doing now.

You may be in different circles than me. In my circles, it is used to poke fun at Xi Jinping, not the Chinese people. It is a caricature, just as we draw caricature of our own politicians. Despite the CCP's attempts, Westerners distinguish between race and state. Xi Jinping is not China and China is not Xi Jinping.
You do realize the only reason why people keep sharing it is because of the Barbra Streisand effect. People loyal to Xi Jinping thought hate it, so people like me share it because it's funny to see their reaction

And you realise that watermelons originated in Africa, right?
You realise that the origin of something doesn't determine the depictions of it supporting racist stereotypes, such as a vast array of disgustingly racist caricatures of black people eating watermelons isn't absolved by the fact that watermelons originated in Africa, right?
Have you ever seen the complete tank man video? he doesn't get run over, while in the authoritarian US state vehicles are often running into peaceful protestors https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=q-W-7WPWfE4

Sorry my dietician told me to stay away from
The first two links have plenty on them though and aren't from Reddit and I can go to archive the rest for you
You believe ridiculous
-tier propaganda about hosing bodies down drains lmao, you have absolutely nothing to offer any discussion.
I understand if you don't want to see. It's very disturbing stuff, and deeply offensive to those who love Xi Jinping thought.

Hey, did those protestors have bones? Were they wearing clothes? Do you have the first clue about how the human body and/or physics work?

Oh, so @CookieJarObserver is using the racist Whinnie the Pooh insult.
As always. Scratch a liberal and a fascist/racist bleeds.
You realize that this picture originated from Chinese social media right?

There are lot's of ways to criticize a political figure or a government. But you choose the racist caricature.
Back to point 2: it’s covert racism. It gives people plausible deniability.
But, at the end of the day, westerners imperialists love their orientalism and their covert racism.

Godwin's law at work https://knowyourmeme.com/memes/godwins-law
Godwin himself told people to stop invoking that shit because so many Nazis and racists try to use it as deflection.

How dare those tanks not run over that man! Don't they understand that freedom is when you just plow into people like US security forces do.
