Government Gets Run Over
JUNE 4 1989- A CITIZEN BEING TREADED UPON BY HIS GOVERNMENT 2004- A GOVERNMENT BEING TREADED UPON BY ONE OF ITS CITIZEN
A split-image meme contrasts the 1989 Tiananmen Square tank confrontation, where a lone citizen stands before government tanks, with a 2004 scene of a tank-like government vehicle being crushed or overrun by one of its citizens. The joke reverses the power dynamic, portraying citizens as eventually turning the machinery of government against it.
