Based on the fact that he got medical attention and based on the tanks explicitly not running over Tank Man, I’m inclined to think this was an accident.
Queer, we’ve met a couple of times on this platform. We both know you would not extend the same benefit of the doubt to, say, the forces perpetrating the 1968 Orangeburg massacre. They too allowed people to be treated by hospitals. They too allowed protesters to be rushed to safety after being shot. Hell, they even took them there themselves.

He got medical attention not from the military, but because other protesters rushed him to a hospital.
The military allowed those other protesters to rush him to a hospital and allowed the hospital to treat him. Why didn’t the military stop them?

So why would we do that to the military?
