How long before Nathan Phillips is called the aggressor, and the boys become the victims?

After all, the boys are white, and Mr. Phillips is obviously First Peoples.


There is so much associated evidence, the clip from the same march of the boys verbally haarassign a girl, the clips showing the Covington students in black face taunting black athletes, the idiotic MAGA hats that feature so prominently these days whe proud Trump-loving racists express their racism openly.

Now, we have the corporate media that is determined to rewrite reality a few days after it happened.

Orwell described this process in 1984, where yesterday's reality changes to become today's reality at the convenience of the fascists.

in that boy's face."

Never happened, but they aren't going to let that stop them.

That all of the associated evidence is ignored by the corporate media so the aggressors become the victims.

Oceania has always been enemies with Eurasia.

I remarked on this after we had suddenly become best friends with Russia. Of course it's going to work on a much smaller scale like the shitball boys versus Nathan Phillips. There has been no objective "truth" since 2016.

And this is attacking the very idea of evidence. We are expected to wait for the corporate media to tell us what happened.

And the MAGA hats, which just happen to figure prominently in many of these incidents of open racism, are a distraction.
