          Turns out, a person can fit under a tank and not get crushed unless they decide to throw themselves at the tracks.

          Interesting, innit?

          Well I could be wrong, in which case I’m really putting the shit in shitposting, but it felt kind of sus-soviet to call attention to how big of an object a T-54’s hull could roll over, in the context of a US army recruitment video featuring the Tiananmen Square Tank Man video. Now, a tank rolls over stuff with its treads, so the ground clearance doesn’t necessarily imply anything about allegedly grinding student protestors into the pavement, but in this context I’m not sure what else it’s supposed to imply. Maybe they should clarify.

          Edit: Ah, ok, I read their other comment. Guess they’re not fedposting…?
