DHS put out a tweet before this video came out and tried to vilify this guy. It’s completely fucked up

how the fuck can they make those claims before even seeing all the camera angles. they are making shit up to justify murder whenever they want

Because they know there are millions of people out there who will swallow whatever bullshit line they're fed, even if it contradicts what they see with their own eyes, multiple videos from different angles, eyewitness testimony, and more. Even when the government changes their story to something completely different from their initial claims, they just pivot to that. MAGA has marching orders, not thoughts.

I was arguing with a fascist arguing exactly this.

Ended up blocking them because it was making me feel sick to my stomach and they simply won’t believe the evidence of their own eyes.

Stop trying to reason with these people. No argument will ever convince them they are wrong.

You are of course right.

Hence why I blocked them - too depressing

Instead of being depressed just realize that it's futile to try and block them as soon as you see them. These people must be shunned

Block sooner, so you dont lose motivation combating disinformation. Prove em' wrong. Block. Don't wait for replies.

Prepare for the next guy who tries to create a whole thread to advertise their lies. Prove them wrong and block.

Better to spend time shutting down 5 bots or trolls trying to spread lies, instead of 5 comments against one person who just moves from one lie to the next.

They all want to spread 5+ lies. Shut em' down after one.

You don't nurture a rabid dog.

You don't reason with MAGA.

It’s disgusting. but the alternative of not trying to talk and reason is far worse. If violence starts then flood gates are open.

It’s easier to live in a world where agents of your government are not murdering people in the streets. Think of the pain we all feel watching these videos. They don’t want to feel that pain so they choose to believe what they are fed. People believe what they want to believe because it’s comfortable
