I care. I care about THE TRUTH. That’s the only thing that matters. And the videos ( which are all out there ) tell the whole tale from start to finish. And it’s every bit the CULTURAL issue as it is the POLITICAL issue. These kids are getting destroyed on the altar of Progressivism. The narrative is a choreographed strategic LIE. And that is corrosive to our entire culture when good people sit by and watch it happen without resistance or comment.
I understand wanting to know what is true, but we rarely get the truth today because we have so much information thrown at us, coming from all different directions. Once it goes viral there is almost 0 chance of getting the truth because even if the truth gets out, people will spin it.
When you have a situation like this, that involves different groups of people, there is no telling what happened. One person from group A could have done something that no one else from group A saw, someone from group B takes it out of context so they yell something to group A.
Multiple people from group A hears what that person yells. They think that person is yelling it at them for no reason at all. They react to it and then you have a situation. As things start to get heated, people from other groups start paying attention. At that point, people from other groups can only report on what they saw.
The person from group A who did something that group B took out of context might not have even been aware that what they did was taken out of context so from their viewpoint the people from group B who yelled something was the one to provoke it. If you ask someone from group B, they will say that a person from group A provoked them by doing whatever they did.
If there isn't anything you can't do about it, then there is no reason to concern yourself with it, especially something like this.

I understand and I respectfully disagree . The Truth of any particular thing is important and worthy of concern. Particularly when a malignant narrative is being used for strategic purposes to ruin lives and in the broader sense is harming the social fabric .

Why does this even surprise anyone. The liberal media gets a story spins it without any time too round up facts and get to the bottom of the story. Judge Cavanaugh, duke lacrosse team, etc. these people's lives don't matter as long as the left pushes it's false narrative. I remember when the news reported the news not spread lies and hate at the cost of innocent people.

Respectfully To the admins- The Culture informs politics. The OT is where we discuss The Culture.I’m not sure the terms “ Republicans “ or “ Democrats “ have even appeared in this thread. What has appeared in this thread is a conversation about our media culture, our social media culture, the nature of propaganda, why it’s important to a culture etc.
Respectfully- you are being short- sighted and arbitrary.

Where are the posts saying lets not trash these kids when stories pop up involving kids that don't look like the ones y'all are rushing to the defense of?

Thing is we don't know if they are innocent or not but go to every Liberal site/news channel and watch them accuse and condemn the actions of these Magna wearing KIDS. No trial no investigation just a video and a few people (obviously not trump supporters) telling their side. Unlike most libs I like to hear and see facts before I make an assumption.

You can apply exactly what you just said to conservative sites when the shoe is on the other foot which is what I was poking at to begin with.

Same here, it's nothing personal at all..

I do agree with this. As they say "the truth will set you free".. Well the truth will set US free.. If we all had the absolute truth then there is nothing to debate, no one other than those responsible will be held accountable and it would be much more difficult for it to turn into a political issue. Unfortunately we live in a world where everything turns into a political issue.
It's not that I really don't care, it's just that personally I don't think it's worth it for me to concern myself with it.

Where are the stories of kids that don't look like these getting roasted in the media for racist remarks and actions?
I don't see the other people in those videos being blasted for the things they were saying to those kids.
You dont get to play that card when some people get away with doing shite that white people are constantly wrongfully accused of.

Yet another statement that can be applied to a different type of person depending on the circumstance.

Please give a recent example where kids don't "look the same" who were universally condemned by the MSM without even bothering to get their side of the story.

This is so stupid that this is even a story in the news.

Non white people are defended more in the media than white people. And those that defend white people or dont defend non white are labeled racists, white supremacists, nazis, etc.
