    As a reminder, you have posted multiple misattributed and fake videos that you saw online to this very thread...

    Are you saying this video is fake?

    Are there Jews who are entertaining the white nationalist movement? I'm sure there are white nationalists, but you all talk about them as if they are this big group out to get everyone. Race is always at the tip of your tongue because the media you consume is a 24/7 feeding tube. It's exhausting. What liberals don't like about Benz is his campaign against online censorship. The liberals think they should be able to decide who can say what.

    Don't know. This is the gish gallop of video posting. Post enough fake videos so as to exhaust the opposition when they have to continually debunk fake videos...

    “Mistakes” like that are street cred in MAGA land.

    Well, there appears to be at least one in him (given that he is a Jewish person praising Hitler's thoughts on Jewish people). It is interesting that you are trying to turn his White Nationalism problem into a problem of noticing his White Nationalism.

    As a reminder, the current government is incarcerating people for what they say. Not encouraging their bans from Twitter. Incarcerating them. So spare me the pretending to care about free speech.

    it would seem it wouldn’t be difficult to have a few undercover and arrest those below. Videos are easy to find with some dude hurling a brick. Just get in the crowd and nab them. Wouldn’t that be a deterrent?
    (Side-note, that is a “LA Times” report.)


    “LAPD Chief Jim McDonnell has drawn a distinction between protesters and masked “anarchists” who he said were bent on exploiting the state of unrest to vandalize property and attack police.”

    As far as I know, only one video I posted was fake and that wasn't deliberate. And I doubt if anyone is deliberately posting fake videos especially to "exhaust the opposition."

    There have been at least 5 fake videos posted on this thread, I think at least a couple by you, although some certainly by others. What is the intent of the person posting it on Twitter to get you to spread them?

    Edit: I decided to look it up to make sure that I wasn't falsely making a claim about your posts. Videos in both posts 57 and 59 were misattributed to the events in LA. I stopped looking after that. I don't think that I realized that 59 was fake when I counted 5 overall yesterday, so that would make the total at least 6 across posters.

    I did not realize 59 was fake. Both have been deleted. Thanks

    That’s exactly right. The optics of Mexican and Salvadoran flags being waved as people are aggressively confronting law enforcement or destroying property is terrible. I’m not sure why that has to be spelled out.

    I'm hoping at some point people realize: crap sources give crap information.

    They could be waiving American flags wearing suits and ties and doing those things and everyone would still be feeling the same way based on their priors

    Now here are the two key questions:

    1. Why have the Twitter accounts that you follow for updates chosen to post so many fake and misleading videos to convince their followers of the widespread violence if there was so much widespread violence?
    2. Why do those accounts want there to be widespread violence in LA, enough that they are faking it when they don't have content to provide evidence of that fact?

    This is a low key candidate for craziest thing posted in this thread.

    People on the internet selectively editing videos? Well I never!

    Not only have fake videos been posted but also old pictures from unrelated events. Why are right wingers continuing to post false information? It makes the real information less believable
