As a Chinese dissident artist i think this is a Great cartoon and very appropriate to reference the tank man from 1989 giving Elon's Shanghai super Tesla factory and his damage to America.

Agreed! @zezvaz.bsky.social has authored one of the #Nast-iest ( #ThomasNast-y, that is) OpEd political cartoons of our times skewering China’s Tiananmen Square massacre coverup and equating it with #techocratbro’s subversion of America’s democratic experiment https://www.cartoonmovement.com/cartoon/cybertruck-man
Thank you, I wish I had thought of it! It’s brilliant. I was in Beijing in 06.’ and so inspired. I’m an artist I studied under Robert Colescott, Bailey Doogan, Harmony Hammond & Alfred Quiroz. All used their art as an instrument for challenging racism, bigotry, misogyny, fascism and bring awareness.
I believe there is a Tank Man in each human being. Understanding that, perhaps we might find it easier, when the times call for it, to aspire to what is best in us; to look to our own reserves of courage and compassion, and try to be Tank Men ourselves.
