Here is an interesting article on how to create a viral hoax. It begins with a network of activists, who start tweeting and instagramming, en masse, to various interest groups, media organizations, and famous personalities. The article also shows how mass manipulation works. "McKew, an expert in disinformation operations, later told CNN Business that she realized, after sharing @2020fight’s tweet herself, that “a network of anonymous accounts were working to amplify the video.” “This is the new landscape: where bad actors monitor us and appropriate content that fits their needs. They know how to get it where they need to go so it amplifies naturally. And at this point, we are all conditioned to react and engage or deny in specific ways. And we all did,” she said." https://www.breitbart.com/politics/...l-media-and-who-blew-up-the-misleading-video/
I admit that for the first day I was pissed at the kids. But when I watched the full video I realized the Native activist was the instigator along with the Black Hebrew Israelites. WOW! Those guys are horrible. But yeah, this looks like an intentional act, with cameras along to film it, designed to make right to life people look bad.
Lawsuits are being put forth to go after those responsible for libel against these children. I hope they are sued and these kids get a lot of money. It's horrible how badly our #MSM has become. They are anti-American.
The left loves propaganda it's how they maintain control of their sheep. This hoax is a prime example...some of the sheep are even still blaming the kids regardless of the evidence....not one has come out saying anything about the horrible racism coming from African-Americans, or the lies from the leftist activist who got in the young man's face
I was suckered, at first, too. Although, I did think it looked a bit odd that the guy was drumming in the kid's face.
To be fair, there have been people, here on PF, who have recognized that. I just hope that those who started this mess can't get away with it just because they have an anonymous account and closed it.
What upset me is the left accused this kid of blocking Sitting Bull's path and smiling arrogantly at him. The left often blocks the paths of people, they block highways, construction sites and office buildings. They also shout down, insult and threaten anyone they disagree with. This was a nothing event and the only thing that made it something are the MAGA hats and the left's hateful phobia of them. They never would have done this to blacks wearing MAGA hats.
The obsession continues... But if I were a Trumpie, I'd be obsessed with this too. Ding dong, the MAGA's dead. Killed by one of its own too. RIP MAGA
Ditto, except that the kids are not fully blameless, but the Black guys are certainly the major instigators here.. The Black guys starting the situation doesn't excuse the kids mocking the Indian dude(s), but it mitigates it a little seeing as how they weren't the worst on the scene. I don't think any of this was staged, except to put 3 such disparate groups physically together in one place.... Washington is a wacky place sometimes..
Attorney Lin Wood is coming after them.......and he’s bringing hell with him. Hopefully, he bankrupts some of these little Bolsheviks https://www.thegatewaypundit.com/20...d-threats-against-covington-catholic-student/
The Left Doesn't Hate the US; It Hates Us Democrats don't want to destroy America; they want to destroy us. We deserve it for who we are
I disagree. Sure, they don't hate the land mass that America encompasses. Maybe they don't even hate the name. The country isn't defined by it's name or the land it occupies. A country is defined by the principles upon which it is founded. The Left tells us that they want to fundamentally transform America. Can a nation be fundamentally transformed without changing/replacing/destroying its foundational principles? Going by the evidence of their words and actions, I do believe that the Left hates us. Not in any substantial way; as humans. It's simply because they have been trained to. For the furtherance of their agenda.
They hate us. They lie about everything. A Better Guide than Elite Opinion Is Public Revulsion at It. The public—though not, for the most part, the academic elite—has reacted with condign disgust at the treatment of the boys from Covington Catholic. It knows that Nathan Phillips is no more “native American” than Nick Sandmann: both were born here and have equal title to America. And it senses that the culprit is the political correctness that has distorted our common life and even our ability to speak the truth about sensitive issues. If there is a silver lining in this disturbing episode, it is that public revulsion at this episode may, just possibly, spark a reconsideration of our ill-advised and demeaning adherence to the tenets of political correctness.
