What would be the point of trying to censor the tank man photo? People act like he was killed or something - he just stopped in front of the tanks, climbed on one for a minute, then was led away by bystanders. https://youtu.be/qq8zFLIftGk

I don't think he lived happily ever after, though

It's by far the most widely know photo from the incident and the CCP already denies anything happened on that day. Other than a change to their "outright ignore its existence policy" then why wouldnt they try and censor it?
