I saw an article about how the photo doesn’t matter anymore and everything has changed, and I thought people somehow finally realized the picture is taken out of context to prop up a conspiracy theory, but… no. It was an article about AI editing and how people can “erase history” and remove “Tank Man” from the photo and people can be “tricked” into thinking it never happened.
Which is stupid as fuck. The pic happened. The video happened. Ironically, they do more to disprove the massacre narrative than support it. The massacre didn’t happen, and editing a picture isn’t going to erase that myth from a country obsessed with believing it.
The article, if my assumption is correct, was about some new Pixel phones’ feature where you can prompt a generative AI to add stuff to your picture. Which makes it even more stupid. Because the ability to remove tank man from the picture has existed since the era of film photography.
My understanding is they edited the guy out because he was responsible for excesses driven by personal prejudices, and then he was arrested and executed. That’s correct, isn’t it? Please excuse my ignorance.

idk either, point is this image editing that liberals believe exists
Even painters were able to paint over people to make it look like they weren’t really there.
Ah, so you saw the article, too. Yeah, I have no idea how much that person got paid to write that article, but it was too much.
It’s not a single country that believes in this myth, unfortunately
True, but my experience is limited to the US. I’m assuming it’s more or less “always the same map”.
