I love to explain to libs how the Tank Man in the famous video was stopping tanks from driving away from the square, and his gestures suggest he was telling the crew to drive back to the square and clear out the protestors.

Also how the "oppressive massacring" Chinese soldiers were willing to talk with him for quite a while and did not drive over him, as they had supposingly driven over all those protesters afterwards.

Meanwhile, in the US, police are using police cars to drive into protesters without consequence.
