Typical propaganda piece of today

The article in the links is just too good to pass up.

Read it. See for yourself. Just don't read it in a vacuum - use your actual knowledge of reality, history, logic, etc. And if you don't have command of basic logic or history - I guess you should go back to school and pick up some knowledge. Too bad schools these days are mostly just indoctrination camps. But I digress.

So what was so terrifying about the riot at the capitol? Ashli Babbit, a female military veteran shot dead by the law enforcement under questionable circumstances? A police officer killed by protesters? No, the fact that some explosive devices were planted at major party offices and the fact that hundreds of people, mostly unarmed, almost effortlessly made their way into the Capitol.

Is there any discussion of how that was even possible? Any outrage at what would be a major failure of all the security measures in the area - on which we spent billions of dollars - and that assuming security forces operated in good faith? And why hardly discussion of the real possibility that they were not? The article mentions a couple of law enforcement officers suspended on suspicion of aiding the rioters - but that is it.

So is this a news report? In my opinion, absolutely not. While some facts are mentioned, it is clearly an attempt at psychological manipulation. And it is a mistake to read it as anything but.
