https://thehill.com/homenews/state-watch/526652-republicans-in-key-michigan-county-try-to-rescind-votes-to-certify

https://twitter.com/correctthemedia/status/1328969920357535744?s=19

So I was reading this story about an attempt to cancel certificaton of votes by a negro county which included allegations of "threats" against the children of republicans.

I'm not surprised by the racist shitstain karen at the center of it that is eager to prevent negro votes from being counted or the fact that they used chopped footage that would make james okeefe proud.

What I am surprised by is the people who can easily tell its chopped footage spreading the fake news eagerly to create this narrative that peoples childrens were threatened. I scrolled through the twitter feed to find the unedited video with beneign commentary that was twisted into threats against someones children and it wasn't hard at all to find it and dismiss it.

Do people simply not care about verifying information anymore in 2020? I could publish a fake story on twitter about biden sexually assaulting a 12 year old boy and it would probably spread like wildfire 🤔

its funny tracking the telephone game too, because the whackos in the other thread were using this story not being everywhere as proof of a media/deepstate cover up.

then again they love project veritas, sooooooooooo.

On December 4, 2016, Edgar Maddison Welch, a 28-year-old man from Salisbury, North Carolina, arrived at Comet Ping Pong and fired three shots from an AR-15 style rifle that struck the restaurant's walls, a desk, and a door.[44][45][46] Welch later told police that he had planned to "self-investigate" the conspiracy theory.[47] Welch saw himself as the potential hero of the story—a rescuer of children.[48] He surrendered after officers surrounded the restaurant and was arrested without incident.[49] No one was injured.[50]

Bar has been pretty low for years.

You had Obama birthers on the right but that was nowhere near the scope and impact which was the Russia collusion bullshit. People believe what they want because of confirmation bias, so naturally you'll have forces trying to take advantage of that.

That's exactly what they indeed did when they accused Hunter Biden of being a pedo, and tried to smear his father by association. This took place just 3 weeks ago. Pepe ridgefarm remembers.

Don't forget the old diver who saved Thailand children and Elon Musk mad that he couldn't showcase his gadget called him a "pedo guy" and other things and wouldn't back down. The diver even sued Elon Musk in English court and lost :rofl: That saga was hilarious.
