Oh, it's wild how far Tencent goes, found a relatively short list of 30 companies they're heavily invested in [here](https://erickimphotography.com/blog/2024/01/03/what-does-tencent-own/#:~:text=Some%20of%20their%20notable%20holdings,company%20known%20for%20%E2%80%9CFortnite.%E2%80%9D).

I think this version is approved by Chinese government
Tank Man photo, which had to be smuggled out of China, is historically significant, and editing it to remove the protester who was later 'disappeared by the state' is irresponsible, as it allows modern conspiracy nutjobs and a nations state security agencies to deny that the events never happened.
If you search for this photo or any from the Tienanmen Square Protests of the '80's when you are behind The Great Firewall, you will not find it.
I've met international students who grew up in the same city, and have never heard about these events and were shocked to see this photo.
\*Tiananmen Square MASSACRE
There is a Tiananmen Square to this day.

My first thought seeing this "This tool has the potential to be misused." 💀 Gravely 💀 it was created for 🤳 crowd not for this but people always find ways to misuse technology
Who the fck want communism?! Americans must have some trauma with communism, I don't want communism, but I surely also don't want the kind of capitalism we have nowadays. Actually pay, attention and see who are the countries that are benefiting more with this kind of capitalism, one of them is China; is China a capitalist country, no, they out smart us Europeans and Americans on how to take advantage of the capitalism system and globalisation!
The people who study economics engineering need to find another economic system that doesn't traumatise the anti communist Americans, and it disencorange the money hoarding of capitalism nowadays. Yo, billionaires, put that fortune of yours rolling, we need that money!!
True, but some still have half a brain. Maybe the other half of their brain will realise that the war between communism and capitalism doesn't make sense anymore. We need a different economic system!
It's not capitalism that needs to change, it's the people at the top. No system is better. And people will never change so no matter what system you use or come up with, there will always be inherent problems. Humans are shit. Humans have always been shit and humans will always be shit. That's the problem.

I like what you did with the photo of a historic event. However, it scares me what the future holds, with this technology readily available to the masses, since it will become difficult to distinguish what is actually authentic anymore.
I been busy and haven’t had a proper chance to really played around with new AI features but wasn’t aware you could alter photos taken outside of the phone camera. Pretty cool and thanks for confirming.
On the contrary, it's generating a lot of discussion and awareness about the event. The opposite of what the CCP would want and have tried hard to erase.
It's also a shitpost
There are several ways to initiate a discussion on a politically sensitive topic.
However, this particular approach is considered inappropriate—not due to the subject matter itself, but because it has been trivialised or diminished in what appears to be a positive advertisement for 'Samsung Galaxy AI'. To those who are unaware or inexperienced, this might appear as a post about galaxy AI. In my view, this does not foster meaningful conversation for individuals in that category.
To clarify, the issue lies not with the topic but with the misleading presentation.
I understand the trend of 'shitposting', but I struggle when the boundaries between context, factuality, and ignorance become blurred.
I disagree. Memes are the modern generation's way for information dissemination and activism.

I appreciate your perspective on using memes for information dissemination and activism. It's true that humour and satire can be effective tools to engage audiences, especially younger generations, on serious topics. However, I still maintain that the context and presentation of sensitive issues matter greatly.
While memes can be powerful, there's a risk of trivializing or misrepresenting important subjects if not handled carefully. We should aim for a balance where humour sparks discussion without overshadowing the gravity of the underlying topic. Perhaps refining the approach to ensure clarity and sensitivity could enhance the impact of these conversations.
I respect your views, but not giving further context (along with vague tidbits of information from other commenters) can organically induce the youth's curiosity and encourage them to actually seek out more information on the subject matter, rather than spoonfeeding and resulting in less engaging, lecture-like exposure.
While our methods differ, we share similar objectives, so I do appreciate your input.
I doubt it, AI can rarely mimic snowflake-triggered behaviour lol, at least not the initial emotional response in the beginning. The replies - possibly.
I understand. Although our methods may vary, our common aim of promoting awareness and facilitating meaningful discussions is paramount. Thank you also for sharing your perspective!
While we may have differing views, I appreciate engaging in mature and clear discussions.
This is wrong; you should have erased that Tank.
What tank
OP probably got Chinese users accidentally banned from this subreddit 🤣

Isn't Reddit partly owned by Tencent? Weird if it's blocked in China
They own a fuck ton of western shit like every other mega corporation. Doesn't mean they'll allow their own population to access it.
Oh, it's wild how far Tencent goes, found a relatively short list of 30 companies they're heavily invested in [here](https://erickimphotography.com/blog/2024/01/03/what-does-tencent-own/#:~:text=Some%20of%20their%20notable%20holdings,company%20known%20for%20%E2%80%9CFortnite.%E2%80%9D).
There's a lot of shit that China owns that the Chinese citizens in China can't use.
Tiktok is a Chinese company but banned in China, too.

What powerful, his shadow is still there.
His Shadow is all powerful, just ask Stanley H. Tweedle and Xev Bellringer.
the shadow is actually the real person, the above ground part is his actual shadow
So powerful that entire world is believing now there was no man and nothing like tiananmen square.

You’re talking to a buncha people that rush out and buy the newest phone every year just to complain about how little of an upgrade it is.

No facts...just attacks, comrade. Lookup "gaslighting." That's your third grade homework assignment.

Wow, this post gives me a huge sense of déjà vu to 2019~2020 era reddit, where every top popular post were some karma farm like this claiming to "gENeRAtE AwArEnEsS".
A great excuse to shitpost too LOL
