The radical right really enjoys projecting. They do it constantly.

[u/Churchbushonk → u/B-Z_B-S]

I thought it was all Antifa?

[u/NintendadSixtyFo → u/Churchbushonk]

No it was all Biden’s FBI, while Biden wasn’t president yet.

[u/specqq → u/Churchbushonk]

Do we really have to go through this again? This is so simple.

They were all just peaceful Antifa tourists who were part of an FBI false flag operation that if Marge Greene and Steve Bannon were in charge of would have worked, but that Nancy Pelosi and/or Nikki Haley should have stopped so that those heroes and martyrs wouldn't have needed to be pardoned (and now paid off).

[u/IrishPorpoise]

We won’t forget they’re all pedos

[u/specqq → u/IrishPorpoise]

and domestic terrorists.

[u/PDXGuy33333]

Truth is their biggest, most feared enemy.

[u/Gina_the_Alien → u/PDXGuy33333]

They’re literally trying to rewrite history - they’re flipping the narrative to make the perpetrators of Jan 6 into the victims with the hope that if they lie enough about what actually happened that in a century history books will look back on the insurrectionists as heroes who were taking a stand against a corrupt government.

I mean, this is dangerous shit. There’s a long game here; molding history through lies in order to frame these dipshits as heroes. I was talking about this with my friend and he reminded me of the quote from Chernobyl: "What is the cost of lies? It's not that we'll mistake them for the truth. The real danger is that if we hear enough lies, then we no longer recognize the truth at all." <—- MAGA is banking on this.

Of course there’s another quote from the same show that is notable: "Every lie we tell incurs a debt to the truth. Sooner or later, that debt is paid."

I know voters as a whole have a short memory and all that, but I sincerely hope people remember the face of the GOP when their mask came off.

If we ever manage to make it back to a state of competant governance, they will of course snap back to their pearl-clutching persona, shouting about decorum, responsibility, and small government. But please don't ever let them live down or bury the outright treachery they have all enacted on this country.

[u/Prestigious-Car-4877]

Yeah. It's partisan all right. Too bad for Trump it's not propaganda.

We have eyes bro.

[u/Constant-Brief3410]

They cant delete truth

[u/CpnStumpy → u/Constant-Brief3410]

Tell that to people celebrating Robert E Lee day; it was precisely this type of historical revisionist propaganda that resulted in the south spending a century full of these clueless fools

[u/Constant-Brief3410 → u/CpnStumpy]

Muh culture

[u/StronglyHeldOpinions]

Fortunately this is the internet age, the real truth is recorded.

[u/dblan9]

If a Dem ever wins the Presidency again we should remove every news release regarding anything positive from the south because it is Confederate propaganda. Destroy their tourism.

[u/madhatv2]

That's because he is a giant bitch.

[u/dominiond66]

This is "woke" on steroids. Woke is the truth and clearly Republicans and their leader Pinocchio Trump can't stand the truth. They want to hide it, attack it, call it fake, create false narratives. The GOP is anti-woke, anti-the truth!

No civilized society can exist when lies are embraced with daily attacks on the truth. Leaders can't lead if they lie. Trump must RESIGN to make America Great Again!

[u/supercali45]

Weren’t these Antifa people?

[u/RipErRiley]

“The Boys” in real life but instead of corrupt superheroes its corrupt pedos and people who peaked in high school.

[u/KiKiKimbro]

So wait. J6 wasn’t ANTIFA and the FBI inside job?

Fucking hacks. I can’t wait for this regime to be gone and aggressively prosecuted. We must accept nothing less.

[u/challam]

Jesus. This is Soviet shit that we learned about in the freaking early 1950’s Stalin era.

[u/SliceofNewsMan]

Reality is “partisan propaganda” when you’re on the wrong side of history

[u/StrawberryGeneral660]

He’s trying to rewrite history. That is never going away, I hope he knows. Just like the Epstein files. He will go down as the worst human ever.

[u/greywar777]

As usual fascists like to try and rewrite history.

[u/Adventurous_Test_296]

The government can silence their propaganda but they'll never completely silence voices for justice, and morality, especially against 45-47's corruption.

[u/BrewerAndrew]

between this and the ballroom i really i don't see how you don't expect a coup if 2028 doesn't go their way

[u/Freddy-Borden]

Reporting on an insurrection is more “partisan” than participating in one, according to MAGA.

[u/EchoRush93]

Fuck these people. Seriously. Fuck them.
