Apparently there’s an issue with some instances banning users for criticizing authoritarian governments. Is lemmy.world a safe place to criticize governments?

    You may be right, that I am misremembering and it was just a stream of photos. But that doesn’t mean I intentionally lied or that the photos were any less gruesome.

      I doubt amy such photos exist either. If they did, surely Le Redditors would post those on the front page rather than those of wrecked bicycles or a man unharmed by a tank. Let me know if you find these photos instead of just reveling in fond memories of them.

        They were posted on Reddit. Years back. Sure, the narrative of tank drivers running over civilians may have been exaggerated. I don’t know. But the pictures of maimed and burnt bodies definitely exist. If you want to see them so bad go search for them yourself. I have no desire to view those again.

          I tried but I couldn’t find them. Since you were so sure you hadn’t dreamt them up and are not perpetuating folklores in the age of informarion I asked for your help. But if you are not willing to substantiate your very serious claims I understand.
