I've never seen this angle of Tiananmen Square's tankman before. Figured I would share. (lemmy.world)

I agree but I think it's too bad that someone needs to choose between deleting a comment to stop the spread of lies and propaganda and the other option of leaving it in place so people can see it. I think it's helpful to see that people like this exist, it helps you understand why people are opposed to these types of people and who is being called a tankie in a negative way.

Agree, but also deleted comments are in the modlog, easy to read them

Also, a lot of apps allow you to read a deleted/removed comment by clicking on the reply button.
