    Assuming there could have been consequences for breaking the law is not “racist”.

      Why isn’t the penalty for blocking traffic a fine? What about community service, or probation? He’s obviously not part of the protests or the militants, since they are several blocks away from Tiannamen Square. Why does your mind immediately jump to execution?

      You know deep in your heart why. Confronting racist things you were taught doesn’t make you a bad person—introspection is good!

        My mind jumps to that because thats what our propaganda has told us. Obviously. It’s what we are talking about here specifically. Race does not factor in here at ground level.

      By what mechanism do you propose he was found and executed? The guy in the tank draws a masterpiece from memory and then the cops go door to door throughout the entire city to find this guy who… climbed on a tank? Really?
