🎯 It all boils down to this for the left: 1. White people are bad. That said, @ryangrim, the post isn’t about the validity, to whatever degree, of the things Ken Burns decided to include in the opening of the documentary. It’s about propaganda, which is always built around lies, half truths and truth, all carefully interwoven to create a narrative. Propaganda works by controlling the lens through which we see things. And for Ken Burns to frame the American Revolution in this way, right from the start, sets the stage for how the viewer interprets everything that comes after. So for example, the smallest amount of truth, like “the Iroquois had a confederacy” morphs into “it was used as a model for America” while leaving out the more important structural influences, including the very system of government used by Britain at the time. Or “Ben Franklin referenced the Iroquois in his writings” becomes “influenced,” while leaving out the far more influential thinkers that had an impact on all the founders. This combination of lies, half truths, truth, along with deliberate omissions, especially at the start of the documentary, are what make this propaganda.

The playbook has been in place for decades...

⬆️ Teef, Can't see Finding's post above. Can't see it if you, Roundy or Quack quotes him either. I will see it however if anyone not already on my ignore list quotes him. I've explained this several times now for Finding too. He doesn't get it either.

Teef, The word is tag. Tag. I can't tag anyone because Simon. I can quote away. I just can't see anything you post UNLESS someone quotes you. Maybe ask Simon to improve the ignore feature such that it includes quoted content and then I'll never see anything at all that you or the rest of your merry band of leftist morons posts. Finding has trouble grasping this concept as well.

Bills Douche....

Obama actually lying= I don't care. Trump hypothetically lying = crisis. Got it.

I'm above the fray!!!! - teef

You were outraged here with a thing that happened of course as opposed to a hypothetical.

Disagree. Teef is King Jr. Arrived with the declaration that he's above the fray... Only to dive deep in the mire. Love it.

Teef meltdown! Beautiful. 😂

That's it. Triple down on woke! It will serve you well.

No, I'm going with the first post. The one you ignored. Conveniently.

No thanks.

Bump for BillsDouche

What's wrong with a few Mengele inspired clinical trials on kids? As long as they're rare of course. - teef
